One of the byproducts of nuclear power generation is Uranium-233. Uranium is decaying at a constant 32% rate per day. If 12,880 pounds are produced from a power plant, what will the amount be in 20 days?
A 21.4009
B 644.208
C 6955.200
D 8243.563

Respuesta :

[tex] \bf \qquad \textit{Amount for Exponential Decay}
\\\\
A=P(1 - r)^t\qquad
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
P=\textit{initial amount}\to &12880\\
r=rate\to 32\%\to \frac{32}{100}\to &0.32\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &20\\
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=12880(1-0.32)^{20}\implies A=12880(0.68)^{20}\implies A\approx 5.7556466 [/tex]
