Question 387311: Use the exponential decay model A=Pe^(kt) to solve the following proublem.
The half-life of plutonium-238 is days. The initial amount is 100 grams.
a)find the value of K to four places.
b) write the formula for the amount of plutonium-238 present at the end of T days.
c)How much of the initial amount will remain after 30 days? Round the answer to the nearest tenth gram.

I know this seems like alot but I swear it's all one proublem just has Three parts to it, been having trouble, thank you sooo much in advance!!! :)
