Answer:

1 2/3 = m

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 = m+3/5 -8/5

Combine terms

2/3 = m-5/5

2/3 = m -1

Add 1 to each side

2/3 +1 = m-1+1

2/3 +3/3 = m

5/3 = m

1 2/3 = m

Given that the half life of 3H is 12.3 years.

The amount of substance left of a radioactive substance with half life of $t_{ \frac{1}{2} }$ after t years is given by

$N(t)=N_0\left(\frac{1}{2} \right)^{ \frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}} }$

Therefore, the number of years it will take for 18% of the original tritinum to remain is given by

$18 \% = 100 \% \left(\frac{1}{2} \right)^{ \frac{t}{12.3}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow\left(\frac{1}{2} \right)^{ \frac{t}{12.3}} =0.18 \\ \\ \Rightarrow\frac{t}{12.3}\ln\left(\frac{1}{2} \right)=\ln0.18 \\ \\ \Rightarrow\frac{t}{12.3}= \frac{\ln0.18}{\ln\left(\frac{1}{2} \right)} = \frac{-1.715}{-0.6931} =2.474\\ \\ \Rightarrow t=2.474(12.3)=30.4$

Therefore, the number of <span>years that the time could be read at night is 30.4 years.</span>
