The most common use of radioactive isotopes in medicine is to diagnose disease. Typically, radioactive materials are injected into the body and then radiation-detecting cameras are used to build images of affected body parts or particular types of cells. The equation shown models the amount of a radioactive isotope y(t) in the bloodstream t minutes after it is injected. y = y_{0}e^{-0.005t}
a. Does this model represent a situation of exponential growth or decay? Explain how you know.
b. What is the rate of growth or decay?
c. What do you think the constant represent in this model?
d. The isotope is no longer useful in diagnostic tests when 95% of the sample has decayed. Determine how long a sample will be useful in a diagnostic lab. Be sure to show how you determined your solution.
e. One student suggested a better representation of this function model would be . Explain why you agree or disagree with this student.

:i need some real : a store sells shirts to the public at one pricing scale and wholesale at another pricing scale. the tables below describe the cost, y, of x shirts. (after tables) how do the slopes of the lines created by each table compare? the slope of the public table is 3/4 of the slope of the wholesale table.the slope of the wholesale table is 3/4 of the slope of the public table.the slope of the public table is 12 times greater than the slope of the wholesale table.the slope of the wholesale table is 12 times greater than the slope of the public table.
