Factor out the coefficient of the variable -3.6m + 10.8

-1

Step-by-step explanation: First, factor out 3.6. You should get -m+3. Since the coefficient is just the number being multiplied to the variable (which is m here), your coefficient should be -1 because m is being multiplied to -1 to make -m. Hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)
