Assume an initial amount of 1.8 kg. Use the the formula A(t) = Aŋekt to model the situation, where Ao is the initial amount of the material and k is a constant representing the rate of decay per million years. a) Find the exact value of k, the decay constant. Round to 6 decimal places or enter an exact answer. k = b) Using the k value from part (a), find a function that gives the amount of the isotope A that remains after t million years. A(t): = c) How long will it take for 70 % of the material to decay? Round to the nearest tenth of a year. (HINT: If 70% of the material decays, how much is left?)
