A swimming pool is initially shocked with chlorine to bring the chlorine concentration to ppm (parts per million). Chlorine dissipates in reaction to bacteria and sun at a rate of about per day. Above a chlorine concentration of ppm, swimmers experience burning eyes, and below a concentration of ppm, bacteria and algea start to proliferate in the pool environment. a. Construct an exponential decay function that describes the chlorine concentration (in parts per million) over time.

Question

A swimming pool is initially shocked with chlorine to bring the chlorine concentration to  ppm (parts per million). Chlorine dissipates in reaction to bacteria and sun at a rate of about  per day. Above a chlorine concentration of  ppm, swimmers experience burning eyes, and below a concentration of  ppm, bacteria and algea start to proliferate in the pool environment.  a. Construct an exponential decay function that describes the chlorine concentration (in parts per million) over time.
