- Suppose that the initial mass of radioactive substance is m0 and the half-life of the substance is h. Let m(t) be the mass remaining at time t. a What is meant by the half-life h? b Write a formula for m(t) in terms of the half-life h. c Write a formula for the relative decay rate r in terms of the half-life h. d Write a formula for m(t) in terms of the relative decay rate r.arrow_forwardTo the nearest whole number, what is the initial value of a population modeled by the logistic equation P(t)=1751+6.995e0.68t ? What is the carrying capacity?arrow_forward
