Emmanuel is working on a research project about the growth of yeast cells in a lab culture. He observes that the yeast population decreases at certain times due to environmental factors. To calculate the time it takes for the yeast population to decrease to half its size, which mathematical operation should he use?

Calculate the logarithm of the population using the decay rate as the base

Divide the time by the decay rate

Multiply the initial population by the decay rate

Raise the decay rate to the power of time
