1. Iodine-131 is tone of the most commonly used radioactive isotopes of iodine. It is used to treat hyper-
thyroidism and some kinds of thyroid cancer.
(a) Iodine-131 has a half-life of about 8 days. Find an expression for I(t), the mass of Iodine-131
remaining after t days, in terms of t and Io, the initial mass of Iodine-131 present at time t = 0.
(b) If a dose of 0.9 mg of Iodine-131 is administered, how much is still present after 24 hours?
(c) How much Iodine-131 is present after one week? Does your answer make sense?
Question 2: When John started his first job, his first end-of-year salary was $82,500. In the following years, he received salary raises as shown in the following table.
Fill the Table: Fill the following table showing his end-of-year salary for each year. I have already provided the end-of-year salaries for the first three years. Calculate the end-of-year salaries for the remaining years using Excel. (If you Excel answer for the top 3 cells is not the same as the one in the following table, your formula / approach is incorrect) (2 points)
Geometric Mean of Salary Raises: Calculate the geometric mean of the salary raises using the percentage figures provided in the second column named “% Raise”. (The geometric mean for this calculation should be nearly identical to the arithmetic mean. If your answer deviates significantly from the mean, it's likely incorrect. 2 points)

That is, some graph having degree sequence with these conditions is connected. Hint - Do not attempt to directly prove this using Erdos-Gallai conditions. Instead work with a realization and show that 2-switches can be used to make a connected graph with the same degree sequence. Facts that can be useful: a component (i.e., connected) with n₁ vertices and at least n₁ edges has a cycle. Note also that a 2-switch using edges from different components of a forest will not necessarily reduce the number of components. Make sure that you justify that your proof has a 2-switch that does decrease the number of components.arrow_forwardT2.2 Prove that a sequence s d₁, d₂,..., dn with n ≥ 3 of integers with 1≤d; ≤ n − 1 is the degree sequence of a connected unicyclic graph (i.e., with exactly one cycle) of order n if and only if at most n-3 terms of s are 1 and Σ di = 2n. (i) Prove it by induction along the lines of the inductive proof for trees. There will be a special case to handle when no d₂ = 1. (ii) Prove it by making use of the caterpillar construction.
