Math Problem Statement
A tumor is injected with 0.9 grams of Iodine-125, which has a decay rate of 1.15% per day. Write an exponential model representing the amount of Iodine-125 remaining in the tumor after t days. Then use the formula to find the amount of Iodine-125 that would remain in the tumor after 60 days.
Enter the exact answer.
Enclose arguments of functions in parentheses and include a multiplication sign between terms. For example, cexp(h) or cln(h)
