3. An adult can take 400 mg of ibuprofen. Each hour, the amount of ibuprofen decreases by 25%.
a. Write an equation of this exponential situation for the total amount of ibuprofen, y, in terms of the number of hours, x.
b. Does this situation represent exponential growth or decay? Explain how you know.

, and

for

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be

, and for

p = 6s
