Answer:
The decay rate is 5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a substance is decaying at the rate of r% per hour from the initial value of P for t hours, then the final value of the substance is given by the function
........... (1)
Comparing this equation with the original equation given as
............ (2) we get,
⇒
⇒ r = 5%.
Therefore, the decay rate is 5%. (Answer)
