the mean life of a radioactive nucleus. Show that 95% of the
radioactive nuclei originally present in a sample will disintegrate within three mean lifetimes, i.e., by time t=.
Thus, the mean life of a
k
nucleus gives a quick way to estimate how long the radioactivity of a sample will last.

If 95% of a sample has decayed, there is 5% remaining. How can you use the radioactivity equation y(t) = yo e
to find when 5% of the
sample is remaining?
A. Set y(t) equal to 0.05 and solve for t.
B. Evaluate y(0.05).
C. Set y(t) equal to 0.05y, and solve for t.
D. Evaluate y(5).
Perform the operation determined in the previous step.

Data comprises of the number of hours studied (x) and the exam grade (y) obtained for first 6 year students registered. The equation of best fit is given by: y= 67.071 + 4.535x.
What is the correct interpretation of the equation?
The population density of the State A has been steadily increasing since 2000. The population density of the State A can be estimated using the equation P=0.82x+76.5, where P is the population density, measured in people per square mile, and x is the number of years since 2000. Use x=1 for 2001, x=2 for 2002, and so on. If the population density continues to increase at its current rate,
a. Determine the population density of the State A in 2009
b. During what year will the population density of the State A reach 110 people per square mile?
