A certain radioactive material is known to decay at a rate proportional to the amount present. If initially there is 50 mg of materials present, and after 2 hours, it is observed that the material has lost 10% of its original mass. Find an expression for the mass of the materal remaining at any time t. Choices 2 y=45e-0053 b y 50e-0055 C. y=45t d. y=50t
