2.5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount remaining (y) in grams is given by the exponential function ...
y = 520(.5^t)
We want to find t when y = 92.
92 = 520(0.5^t)
92/520 = 0.5^t
log(92/520) = t·log(0.5)
t = log(92/520)/log(0.5) ≈ 2.499 ≈ 2.5
It would take 2.5 minutes for the 520 gram sample to decay to 92 grams.
