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?

This can be modeled by the differential equation dT dt k(TA), where T is the temperature of the object after t units of time have passed, A is the ambient temperature of the object's surroundings, and k is a constant of proportionality.
