An artifact originally had 16 grams of carbon-14 present. The decay model A = 16 e-0.0001211 describes the amount of carbon-14 present after t years. Use the model to determine how many grams of carbon-14 will be present in 8305 years The amount of carbon-14 present in 8305 years will be approximately grams. (Round to the nearest whole number.)
