Question

Practice using the exponential decay formula by completing the table below. Round final amounts to the nearest whole. $$ \begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|} \hline \begin{array}{c} \text { Original } \\ \text { Amount } \end{array} & \begin{array}{c} \text { Decay Rate } \\ \text { per Year } \end{array} & \begin{array}{c} \text { Number } \\ \text { of Years, } \boldsymbol{x} \end{array} & \begin{array}{c} \text { Final Amount after } \\ \boldsymbol{x} \text { Years of Decay } \end{array} \\ \hline 207,000 & 32 \% & 25 & \\ \hline \end{array} $$

Instant Answer

Step 1

The formula is given by \(Y = a(1 - r)^x\), where: - \(Y\) is the final amount after \(x\) years of decay, - \(a\) is the original amount, - \(r\) is the decay rate per year, and - \(x\) is the number of years. In this case, we have: - \(a = 207,000\), - \(r = Show more…
