Answer:

Option A = 5 mg  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Terbium-160 has a half-life of about 72 days.

To find : After 396 days, about how many milligrams of a 220 mg sample will remain?

Solution :

We have given the Terbium-160 has a half-life of about 72 days.  

We can represent the situation with an exponential function,

A_t = A_0(0.5)^{\frac{t}{n}}

Where,

A_t is the amount at any time t,

A_0=220 is the original amount,

n=72 is the half-life

t=365 number of days

Substituting all the values,

A_t =220(0.5)^{\frac{396}{72}}

A_t =220(0.5)^{5.5}

A_t =220(0.022)

A_t =4.84

Approximately 4.84=5 mg

Therefore, Option A is correct.  

After 396 days, there will only be 5 mg of Terbium-160.
