For this problem, we use the formula for radioactive decay which is expressed as follows:

An = Aoe^-kt

where An is the amount left after time t, Ao is the initial amount and k is a constant.  

We calculate as follows:

at hal-life equal to 5700,

An = Aoe^-kt

0.5 = e^-k(5700)

k = 1.22x10^-4

An = A

The next step would be to follow the AED prompts.

An AED or Automated External Defibrillator refers to a lightweight, small apparatus, which evaluates an individual's heart rhythm and can determine the irregular heart rhythms, like VF (ventricular fibrillation) or VT (ventricular tachycardia), also called Sudden Cardiac Arrest.

Automated external defibrillators can assist in saving many lives at the time of sudden cardiac arrest. However, even after training, memorizing the steps to use an AED in the right manner can be tough.
