35. Radioactive Decay The Chernobyl nuclear reactor in the Soviet Union experienced a accidental discharge of highly toxic radioactive chemicals in 1986. The model for the decay of the Plutonium in the area is modeled by the following equation which represents the amount of plutonium remaining after t years. How much of the 10 pounds is still remaining. How much will remain in 100,000 years? Sketch a graph showing a time lapse of the remaining plutonium.
