The decay rate of a drug describes how long it takes the drugs effects to wear off. The decay rate of Aspirin is modeled by the equation A=A0 (2.713-0.277t), where A is the amount of drug remaining in the blood, A0 is the initial dosage, and t is the time in hours. If a patient is initially given a 500 mg dose of Aspirin, how many milligrams remain in the bloodstream 6 hours alter? Round your answer to the nearest milligram
