After 6 hours the radioactive compound with mass 470 grams becomes 391.49 grams and the equation will be C is equal to 470(1-0.03)^6.

<h3>What is exponential decay?</h3>

During exponential decay, a quantity falls slowly at first before rapidly decreasing. The exponential decay formula is used to calculate population decline and can also be used to calculate half-life.

We know the decay can be as:

\rm C = a(1-r)^t

We have:

a = 470 grams

r = 3% = 0.03

t = 6 hours

\rm C = 470(1-0.03)^6

C = 391.49 grams

Thus, after 6 hours the radioactive compound with mass 470 grams becomes 391.49 grams and the equation will be C is equal to 470(1-0.03)^6.

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

442.302 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

amount = 487 (1/2)^(t/36) where t is the number of days.

if t = 5

amount = 487(.5)^(5/36)

= 442.302 kg

Length of line RS is probably 20 because it’s not smaller than the line it’s parallel to but it’s not equal either so the answer has to be c unless there’s a d that’s between 10-20
