if a person takes a prescribed dose of 5 mg of Valium, the amount of Valium in a persons bloodstream at time t (in hours) can be modeled with the exponential decay function: A(t)= 5e^-0.0144t at what rate is the amount of Valium in a persons blood stream decaying five hours after a 5 mg dose is taken? Round to 3 decimal places.
