Question 301785: approximately one half of all glass bottles distributed will be recycled each year. A beverage company distributes 310,000 bottles. the number in use after t
years is given by the function. N(t)=310,000(1/2)^t.
How many years will 5000 bottles still be in use?
I've tried several different ways to work this function and get a different answer every time!!!!!! Do Ineed to replace N for the 5000 to solve?
Thanks,
