A farmer feeds a cow 9300 milligrams of an antibiotic. Every hour, 50% of the drug breaks down in the cow's body. How much will be left in 6 hours?

9514 1404 393

  about 145.3 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

If half breaks down in the hour, then half remains. That is, each hour the amount remaining is multiplied by 1/2. The remainder after 6 hours is ...

  (9300 mg)(1/2)^6 = 145.3125 gm

About 145.3 mg will be left after 6 hours.

(n^3 - n)

= n(n-1)(n+1)

since it is divisible by 3 and 2 ,because it is a multiple 3 consecutive number

if, n-1 is odd then n+1 is also odd, then it is a multiple of 9

but if, n-1 is even then n+1 is also even, then it is a multiple of 4

so, largest multiple = max(9*2, 4*3) = max(18, 12) = 18

hi,

i'm 75% sure the answer is 1,1 to both lines.

have a great day
