BRINE SOLUTION PROBLEM: In 1986 the Chernobyl nuclear power plant exploded, and scattered radioactive material over Europe. Of particular note were the two radioactive elements iodine-131 whose half-life is 8 days and cesium-137 whose half-life is 30 years. Predict how much of this material would  remain over time. Express your final answer as a function of t.
