Answer :

fichoh

Answer:

B = 40 - 8t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Rate at which battery life discharges = 8% per hour ;

Battery life left after 3 hours = 16%

t = hours after Lucy left hiuse

Equation B will be ;

Amount of charge before leaving home - (Discharge rate * number hours)

Amount of charge before leaving home :

Charge left after 3 hours + discharge rate * 3

16% + 8*3

16% + 24% = 40%

Hence,

B = 40 - 8t
