Half life question: The table below shows the initial and final masses of a radioactive material whose half-life is 15 years. Initial mass (in kilograms) 0.8
Final mass (in kilograms) 0.05

Based on the table, which of these conclusions is correct?
A) The material decayed from 0.8 kilograms to 0.05 kilogram in 60 years.
B) The material decayed from 0.8 kilograms to 0.05 kilogram in 30 years.
C) The mass of the material was 0.1 kilograms after four half lives.
D) The mass of the material was 0.1 kilograms after five half lives.

The kidney filters potentially toxic substances in the blood, and thus “clears” the blood of those substances. this clearance function is dependent upon and proportional to the diffusion gradient of the substance across filtering capillaries, i.e. if the concentration of the substance is doubled, twice as much will be cleared from each ml of blood that is filtered. suppose that the body produces a constant amount of a substance x per unit of time. the kidneys eliminate substance x at a rate directly proportional to the concentration of the substance and the volume of blood cleared each minute (c): elimination = c × [x], where [x] is the steady-state concentration of substance x. imagine an individual with an initial concentration of x equal to [x]0 who develops kidney disease. her baseline clearance c0 drops to one half of the original (½c0). what is the new steady state concentration of x? (for simplicity, assume that substance x is 100% filtered by the kidney).
