Answer:

y = 650·0.922^t

Step-by-step explanation:

At the end of each year, 92.2% of the amount at the beginning of the year remains. That is, the beginning amount is multiplied by 0.922. The exponent t in 0.922^t tells how many times (years) that multiplication has taken place. At the end of t years, the amount remaining in milligrams (y) is ...

y = 650·0.922^t
