Answer questions based on the following information:

A geologist has a sample containing fermium-253, a radioactive material. He measures the radioactive emissions from the sample once per day over a week and gets the data in this chart.

Day Radiation
1 2440 MBq
2 1920 MBq
3 1541 MBq
4 1218 MBq
5 970 MBq
6 770 MBq
7 611 MBq


(MBq stands for megabecquerels, a unit of radioactivity. The measurement in megabecquerels can be assumed to be proportional to the number of atoms remaining of the radioactive substance.)
