Without seeing the table of values, it is difficult to determine the exact exponential function that models this situation. However, in general, the exponential decay formula is often used to model radioactivity over time.
The general form of an exponential decay function is:
\[ f(x) = A \times e^{kx} \]
where:
- \( A \) is the initial amount of radioactivity
- \( k \) is the decay constant
- \( x \) is the time in seconds
You would need the values from the table to determine the specific values of \( A \) and \( k \) to plug into the function.
The table shows the amount of radioactivity after x amount of seconds.
Which exponential function models this situation?
