Half-life problems can be modeled using the formula

Last updated: 8/11/2022

Half-life problems can be modeled using the formula y=a(1/2)^t/k initial amount, k is the time it takes to reach the half-life, and t is the time. Make sure k and t are using the same units! Medicine has a half-life of 6 hours. Sally is given 600-mg of the medicine at 8AM. a) What is the initial amount? b) What is the time it takes to reach half the initial amount? d) How many mg of medicine will remain in her bloodstream after 24 hours? Show all work. If you used a calculator, include screenshots.
