Answer:

0.65g

Step-by-step explanation:

Decay rate = 50%

Decay rate = 0.5

[tex]A = Aoe {}^{ - kt} [/tex]

where Ao = initial amount at start, k = rate of decay or growth, t = time, e = euler's number and A = value at time 't'

Ao = 4.8

t = 88/44 = 4

k = 0.5

substitute these values in the equation

[tex]A = 4.8e {}^{ - 0.5 \times 4} [/tex]

[tex]A = 0.6496[/tex]

[tex]A = 0.65 \: (2dp)[/tex]
