Start by calling the time spend on announcements 'A'. We can then set up an equation to represent the problem:
and then solve by multiplication to get:
A=0.6hours
We could also convert this into minutes:
and then solve by multiplication to get:
A=0.6hours
We could also convert this into minutes:
The equation is:
P ( t ) = A * (1/2 )^(t/h)
If a sample contains 18% of the original amount of Radon - 222 and h = 3.8:
0.18 * A = A * ( 0.5 )^(t/3.8) / : A ( we will divide both sides of the equation by A )
0.18 = ( 0.5 )^(t/3.8)
t / 3.8 = 2.47 ≈ 2.5
t = 3.8 * 2.5 = 9.5
Answer:
The best estimate for the age of the sample is 9.5 days.
