Question

The half life of a certain type of soft drink is 5h. If you drink 50mL of this drink, the formula y equals 50 left parenthesis 0.5 right parenthesis to the power of t over 5 end exponent tells the amount of drink left in your system after t hours. How much of the soft drink will be left in your system after 16 hours?

hintHint:

Substitute the value of t and then find.

The correct answer is: We get, y equals 50 left parenthesis 0.5 right parenthesis to the power of 16 over 5 end exponent is the amount of drink left


    Complete step by step solution:
    Here we have the formula for soft drink left = y equals 50 left parenthesis 0.5 right parenthesis to the power of t over 5 end exponent
    Now, after 16 hours,
    We get, y equals 50 left parenthesis 0.5 right parenthesis to the power of 16 over 5 end exponent is the amount of drink left
