The decay function is
a(t)=a_{0} e^{-7.571t}
where
a₀ = initial mass
t = time, days

At half life, a(t) = a₀/2, therefore the time required to achieve half life is given by the equation
\frac{a_{0}}{2} =a_{0} e^{-7.751t}\\ \frac{1}{2} =e^{-7.571t}

Take natural log of each side.
ln(1/2) = -7.571 t

Divide each side by -7.571 to obtain
t= \frac{ln(1/2)}{-7.571} =0.0916

Answer: 0.0192 days (nearest thousandth)
