A certain quantity has a century decay factor of 0.1. What is its yearly decay factor? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
I am not 100% as I am learning about this too so here I go. a=1-r is the decay formula a=1-.1=.9 .9^12=.282429=.28 rounded to two decimal places. I raised the.9 to the 12th because there are 12 months in 1 year. Do you have multiple attempts?
(.1) 1 = (1-r)100 century decay factor = yearly decay factor100
.1 = (1-r)100 (1-r) = yearly decay factor = .977237221
