An astronaut was exploring the moon of a distant planet, and found some glowing goo at the bottom of a very deep crater. She brought a 10-gram sample of the goo to her laboratory. She found that when the goo was exposed to light, the total amount of goo increased by 100% every hour.

ow much goo will she have after 1 hour? After 2 hours? After 3 hours? After n hours?

When she put the goo in the dark, it shrank by 75% every hour. How many hours will it take for the goo that was exposed to light for n hours to return to the original size?

8.4: Representing Percent Increase and Decrease: Equations
