Answer:
a) The half life of the substance is 22.76 years.
b) 5.34 years for the sample to decay to 85% of its original amount
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of the radioactive substance after t years is modeled by the following equation:

In which P(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate.
A sample of a radioactive substance decayed to 97% of its original amount after a year.
This means that:

Then



So

(a) What is the half-life of the substance?
This is t for which P(t) = 0.5P(0). So







The half life of the substance is 22.76 years.
(b) How long would it take the sample to decay to 85% of its original amount?
This is t for which P(t) = 0.85P(0). So







5.34 years for the sample to decay to 85% of its original amount
I think same as BC because it seem like its a reflected problem and x would be 23 and if 23-5 that would be 18 I think.
Answer:
The differences become smaller
Step-by-step explanation:
Normally, we use the t-distribution table rather than the normal distribution when the population standard deviation is unknown and when the sample size is small i.e. less than 30.
Now, as the sample size gets bigger, we will be getting closer to the point where we have to use the normal distribution.
This means that as the sample size increases, the values of the t-distribution will be getting close to that of the normal distribution because normal distribution is used when sample is more than 30.
For example the t-value for a sample of 25 people would be closer to the normal distribution value for a sample of 35 people while a t-value for a sample of 15 people will be far away from the normal distribution value for a sample of 35 people.
Thus, as the sample size increases, the differences between the t-distribution and standard normal distribution becomes smaller.
