    The decay of 277 mg of an isotope is described by the function

    A (t) = 277e-0.019t,

    where t is time in years.

    To find the amount left after 64 years,

    We substitute t = 64 in the expression.

    A (t=64) = 277e-0.019 (64)

    or A (t=64) = 277 * e-1.216

    = 277 * 0.29

    = 82 mg
