In a science experiment a substance is decaying exponentially. Its mass, M grams, at time t minutes is given by M=300e^(-0.05t). Find the time taken for the mass to decrease to half of its original value.

Firstly, calculate the initial value of of M, by substituting t = 0 into the equation M=300e^-0.05tInitially, M₀= 300e⁰=300 x 1 = 300When the substance mass has decreased t...
