This problem can be solved using the <u>Radioactive Half Life Formula:
</u>
<u />
(1)
Where:
is the final amount of the material
is the initial amount of the material
is the time elapsed (the quantity we are asked to find)
is the half life of americium-241
Knowing this, let's find from (1):
Applying natural logarithm in both sides:

Add like terms on the same side:
-10 + 8x = -56
Add ten to both sides
-10 + 8x + 10 = -56 +10
Simplify:
8x = -46
Divide both side by 8
8x/8 = -46/8
Simplify
x = - 5.75
The answer is x = -5.75
(The answer can also be written as -23/4 or -5 3/4)
