Situation: a 48 gram sample of substance that's used for drug research has a k-value of 0.1325. Find the substance's half-life, in days. Round your answer to the nearest tenth

same as last one \[\frac{1}{2}=e^{-.1325t}\] \[ln(.5)=-.1325t\] \[t=\frac{ln(.5)}{-.1325}\] \[t=5.23\]

i guess in general you can see that the answer will be \[\frac{ln(.5)}{-k}\]
