A radioactive substance has a decay rate of 0.044 per hour. How many grams of a 100 gram sample will remain radioactive after 2 hours? Round the answer to the nearest tenth of a gram, and do not include the unit in your answer. If necessary, include a leading 0 with any decimals less than 1. For example, 0.4 instead of .4.

91.6

Explanation:

N(t) = N e^(-kt)

N = 100 at initial

k=0.044

t=2
