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.What is the age of the mineral?

A. 10 million years old B. 20 million years old C. 30 million years old D. 40 million years old
