The answer is 1954. Letter C is correct
Solution:
If P(x) = 165,000
Then
165,000 = 55,000(x - 1945)^(1/2)
x= 1954

to check it, substitute x
165,000 = 55,000(1954 - 1945)^(1/2)
165,000 =165,000

In four years, 40% of a radioactive element decays. Find its half-life. Round to one decimal place.

White raven [17]

To find the answer, use $k = \frac{2.303 }{ 4} (log\frac {100 }{ 40})$ , and then use the equation $t=\frac{.693}{k}$ To find it's half life.
