Question

2. The half-life of the radioactive material in Z-Med, a medication used for certain types of therapy, is 2 days. A patient receives a 16 mCi dose (millicuries, a measure of radiation) in his treatment. (Half-life means that the radioactive material decays to the point where only half is left.) a. Make a table to show the level of Z-Med in the patient’s body after nn days b. Write a formula to model the half-life of Z-Med for nn days. (Be careful here. Make sure that the formula works for both odd and even numbers of days.) c. How much radioactive material from Z-Med is left in the patient’s body after 20 days of receiving the medicine?
