Juan analyzes the amount of radioactive material remaining in a medical waste container over time. he writes the function f(x)=10(0.98)x to represent the amount of radioactive material that will remain after x hours in the container.
rounded to the nearest tenth, how much radioactive material will remain after 10 hours?

a) 0.8 units b) 1.3 units c) 8.2 units d) 9.8 units

Option C) 8.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

where the function is a decay function and represent the amount of radioactive material that will remain after x hours in the container.

We have to find the amount of radioactive material that will remain after 10 hours.

At x  = 0, that is initially the amount of radioactive material is:

At x = 10, that is after 10 hours, amount of radioactive material left:

Decrease in material =

Option C) 8.2 units
