The radioactive element Unobtanium-189 (Ut-189) decays to the stable element Dilithium-171 (Di-171). The half-life of Ut-189 is 10 million years. Using a very sensitive atom-counter instrument, you determine that a mineral sample has 150 atoms of Di-171, and 50 atoms of Ut-189. Assume that no atoms have been lost due to metamorphism over the lifetime of the rock.Use this information to answer the following question.How many half-lives have passed since the mineral formed?

A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 4
