There will be 38 grams remaining.

The equation would be of the form
y = a(1+r)ˣ, where a is the initial value, r is the rate as a decimal number, and x is the amount of time.  Using our values from the problem, we have:

y = 670(1-0.273)^9 = 670(0.727)^9 = 38

Answer: 38.0 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential decay equation with rate of decay r in time period x is given by :-

f(x)=A(1-r)^x, A is the initial value .

Given: The initial mass of element=  670 grams

Rate of decay= 27.3%=0.273

Now, the function represents amount of element after x minutes is given by ;-

f(x)=670(1-0.273)^x\\\\\Rightarrow\ f(x)=670(0.727)^x

Now, the function represents the amount of element after 9 minutes is given by ;-

f(x)=670(1-0.273)^9\\\\\Rightarrow\ f(x)=38.0088299313\approx38.0\text{ grams}

Hence, 38.0 grams of element remains after 9 minutes.
