Therefore, the bones were 6612.5 years old at the time they were discovered.
<h3><u>Half life</u></h3>
Given that the radioactive element carbon-14 has a half-life of 5750 years, and a scientist determined that the bones from a mastodon had lost 57.5% of their carbon-14, to determine how old were the bones at the time they were discovered, the following calculation must be made:
- 50 = 5750
- 100 = 11500
- 57.5 = X
- 57.5 x 11500 / 100 = X
- 6612.5 = X
Therefore, the bones were 6612.5 years old at the time they were discovered.

Just differentiate it with time or with whatever respect you want ! mainly it is time !
Answer:
data set 1 : the mean is (1+2+4+4+5+5+6+7+9+9+9+11) / 12 = 72/12 = 6the MAD is :1 - 6 = -5....|-5| = 52 - 6 = -4....|-4| = 44 - 6 = -2...|-2| = 24 - 6 = -2...|-2| = 25 - 6 = -1...|-1| = 15 - 6 = -1...|-1| = 16 - 6 = 0 ...| 0| = 07 - 6 = 1....|1| = 19 - 6 = 3...|3| = 39 - 6 = 3...|3| = 39 - 6 = 3...|3| = 311 - 6 = 5...|5| = 5(5+4+2+2+1+1+0+1+3+3+3+5) / 12 = 30/12 = 2.5 <== the MAD2nd data set :the mean is (1+3+4+6+6+6+7+9+9+10+10+13) / 12 = 84/12 = 7mad is :1 - 7 = -6...| -6| = 63 - 7 = -4...|-4| = 44 - 7 = -3...|-3| = 36 - 7 = -1...|-1| = 16 - 7 = -1..|-1| = 16 - 7 = -1..|-1| = 17 - 7 = 0...|0| = 09 - 7 = 2...|2| = 29 - 7 = 2...|2| = 210 - 7 = 3..|3| = 310 - 7 = 3...|3| = 313 - 7 = 6...|6| = 6(6+4+3+1+1+1+0+2+2+3+3+6) / 12 = 32/12 = 2.67 <== the MADthe difference of the means is 1. This value is less then half of the mean absolute deviation of either data set. <== ur answer
Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the number of beige tiles bought by Susan = B
Number of red tiles bought by Susan = R
Number of navy-blue tiles bought by Susan =N
Number of tiles bought altogether = 435
Now from the given question we know:
Number of red tiles bought is 25 more than the number of beige tiles.
So
R = 25 + B
Number of navy blue tiles bought is 3 times that of the number of beige tile bought
So
N = 3B
We already know that the total number of tiles bought is 435
Hence
B + R + N = 435
B + (25 + B) + 3B = 435
5B + 25 = 435
5B = 435 -25
5B = 410
B = 82
R = 25 + B
= 25 + 82
= 107
N = 3B
= 3 * 82
= 246
So the number of Beige tiles bought by Susan = 82
The number of red tiles bought by Susan = 107
The number of navy-blue tiles bought by Susan = 246
