Question 1056667: You've received a tip that Mastermind plans to poison the Starling City's water supply with a new compound.
Scientists analyze the compound and discover that--over time--it'll become less toxic over time using this formula:
P = P0e-0.15⋅t
What is the half-life of the compound's toxicity should it get in the water supply?
Number
days
Hint: half-life is when the current P value is half of the starting value, or P0 .
P=
P0=
k=
t =
P0ekt
Initial population
constant of growth
time passed
