Technetium-99 m has a half life of 4.8 hours. If a patient receives a dose with an activity of 60.2 mCi of Technetium 99 for cardiac imaging how much radioactivity will be left in the patients body 48 hours after injection?

A 400-mg sample of technetium-99m is used for a diagnostic test. If technetium-99m has an effective half-life of 4.8 hours, how much of the technetium-99m remains 48 hours after the test?

A certain chemotherapy drug is sometimes given to patients undergoing bone marrow transplantation. The concentration $C(t)$ (in $\mu \mathrm{mol} / \mathrm{L}$ ) of the drug in the bloodstream $t$ minutes after ingestion can be approximated by $$C(t)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll} -0.088+0.89 \ln (t+2) & \text { for } 0<t<72 \\ 4.64 e^{-0.003 t} & \text { for } t \geq 72\end{array}\right.$$ The prime efficacy of the drug takes place when the concentration is above $1.5 \mu \mathrm{mol} / \mathrm{L}$. Determine the time interval for which the drug is most effective. Round to the nearest minute.
