What does the number 1,500 represent in the context of the radioactive isotope present after t years?
What does the number 1,500 represent in the context of the radioactive isotope present after t years?
- The result of mistakenly multiplying 1/2 by 2 to get 1 and concluding that since 1,500 × 1 = 1,500, this is the number of grams of the radioactive isotope present after 2 years
- The number of grams of the radioactive isotope present after 2 years (correct)
- A misinterpretation of the decay factor as a number of years
- The number of grams of the radioactive isotope present after 1 year
