When a vertical beam of light passes through a transparent medium, the rate at which its intensity I decreases is proportional to I(t), where t represents the thickness of the medium (in feet). In clear seawater, the intensity 3 feet below the surface is 25% of the initial intensity I0 of the incident beam. What is the intensity of the beam 12 feet below the surface

Intensity of 0.039

Explanation:

The intensity of the initial beam is 10; 3 feet below it´s 2.5 (25% of 10); at 6 feet (I = Intensity decreases proportional to t = thickness in feet) it´s 0.625 (25% of 2.5); at 9 feet it´s 0.15625 and at 12 feet the intensity has shrinken to a mere 0.039.

there are no options provided but you can choose among the following gender-neutral pronouns: zir, hir, eir, vis, tem, eir.

in the normal course of maintaining a pronoun-antecedent agreement, we could have used the words his or her but since we are also required to use gender-neutral language, we need to replace it with its equivalent gender-neutral pronoun.
