The concentration of (DDT - an infamous pesticide) in Lake Michigan has been declining exponentially over many years. In 1971, the DDT concentration was 13.00 ppm (parts per million). In 1984, the DDT concentration was 2.22 ppm.
Using these data points, determine the exponential decay function to model the DDT concentration decline in terms of years, tt, where t=0t=0 represents the year 1971.
A) Write your function as y = Ce^{rt}y=Ce^rt. Round your value of rr to four decimal places.
B) Another way to write the function down is known as the half-life formula, written as y = C(0.5)^{t/H}y=C(0.5)^t/H, where HH is the time required for the concentration to get cut in half. Using the initial two data points, find the value of HH, rounded to 2 decimal places. Show all Algebraic work.
C) The goal was to reduce the DDT concentration to 0.98 ppm by 1995. Was this possible according to your model?
