Question 930794: The mass of a radioactive substance follows a continuous exponential decay model, with a decay rate parameter of 5% per day. A sample of this radioactive substance has an initial mass of 4.71 kgFind the mass of the sample after two days. Round your answer to two decimal places.Note: This is a continuous exponential decay model.And though the decay rate parameter is 5% per day, the actual decay is not 5% each day.
