The half-life of a certain radioatcive material is 85 days.
\n" ); document.write( "An initial amount of the material has a mass of 801 kg.
\n" ); document.write( " Write an exponential function that models the decay of this material remains after 10 days.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "The half life formula: A = Ao*2^(-t/h)
\n" ); document.write( "where
\n" ); document.write( "Ao = initial amt (801)
\n" ); document.write( "A = resulting amt after t time elapses
\n" ); document.write( "t = time (10)
\n" ); document.write( "h = half-life of substance (85)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "A = 801 * 2^(-10/85) \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
