Please help me answer this I'm currently taking the end of the year assessment right now!!

2.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we can use the exponencial function:

P = Po * (1 + r)^t

Where P is the final value, Po is the inicial value, r is the rate and t is the time.

In this case, we have Po = 8, P = 7 and r = -5% = -0.05. So, we can solve for t:

7 = 8 * (0.95)^t

0.95^t = 0.875

log(0.95^t) = log(0.875)

t * log(0.95) = -0.1335

t * (-0.0513) = -0.1335

t = -0.1335 / (-0.0513) = 2.6023 hours

Rounding to the nearest half-hour, we have t = 2.5 hours
