2 11/16 I believe is the answer
first off, let's convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction and then proceed, let's notice that by PEMDAS or order of operations, the multiplication is done first, and then any sums.

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The first answer is correct because we have a decay factor.
The sample is losing mass, so the number that is being multiplied by a power of x must be less than 1.
If the second answer were used, then the sample would be gaining mass.
