You will notice that the answer to problem 8 does not agree with any of the offered choices. The time period of 22.8 years is 12 times the half-life of the substance, so there will be (1/2)^12 = 1/4096 of the original amount remaining. The time periods corresponding to the amounts shown range from 1.37 years to 16.4 years.
For half-life problems, I find it convenient to use the decay factor (0.5^(1/half-life)) directly, rather than convert it to e^-k. If you do convert it to the form ...
e^(-kt)
the value of k is (ln(2)/half-life), about 0.3648143056.
