This math topic focuses on exponential decay functions and involves solving for time with mismatched time units. It specifically examines continuous decline scenarios in diverse contexts such as population decay for whales and birds, as well as decay in the concentrations of radioactive materials and bacteria. Each problem presents an exponential decay equation and requires determining the time variable. The provided equations feature parameters adjusted for different units of time. Each question offers multiple-choice answers formulated with logarithmic expressions to calculate the required time.
