9375 grams of radioactive material decays every hour in a geometric fashion. After 4 hours of decay, 15 grams of radioactive mat

erial remains. Assuming the decay continues at the same rate, determine the exact amount of radioactive material that would remain by the 7th hour of decay.

The amount of radioactive material that would remain by the 7th hour of decay is 0.12 grams.

<h3>Exponential function</h3>

An exponential function is in the form:

y = abˣ

where y,x are variables, a is the initial value and b is the multiplicative factor.

Let y represent the amount of substance remaining after x hours. Hence:

a = 9375, at x = 4, y = 15:

15 = 9375(b)⁴

b = 0.2

y = 9375(0.2)ˣ

For the 7th hour, x = 7:

y = 9375(0.2)⁷ = 0.12

The amount of radioactive material that would remain by the 7th hour of decay is 0.12 grams.

Answer:

£5083

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 2.1%/100 = 0.021 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 4600 × 0.021 × 5 = 483

I = £ 483.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of £ 4,600.00

at a rate of 2.1% per year

for 5 years is £ 483.00.
