Question

M(t)=120e−0.018t How much mass remains after 50 years? Round to 2 decimal places.

Answer 1

The mass that would remain after 50 years is 48. 79 kilograms

How to determine the amount

It is important to note that half - life is the time it takes for amount of a substance to reduce to half of its initial value.

Given the equation

m(t)=120e−0.018t

Where

m(t) is the amount = unknown

t = time = 50 years

$m(t) = 120e^0^.^0^1^8^t$

Substitute the value into the equation

$m(t) = 120e^0^.^0^1^8^(^5^0^)$

$m(t) = 120e^-^0^.^9$

Find the exponential value

$m(t) = 48.788399$
m(t) = 48. 79 kilograms in 2 decimal places

Thus, the mass that would remain after 50 years is 48. 79 kilograms
