A radioactive compound with mass 470 grams decays at a rate of 3% per hour. Which
equation represents how many grams of the compound will remain after 6 hours?Submit Answer

Respuesta :

The standard exponential function is expressed as:

[tex]C=A(1-r)^t[/tex]

Where:

A = 470

r = 3% = 0.03

t = 6 hours

So, substitute the values in the formula:

[tex]C=470(1-0.03)^6[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]C=470(1-0.03)^{6}[/tex]
