To make ∠ADC is a right angle, value of x will be 7.

From given figure, it is observed that Angle ADC is combination of two angles ADB and BDC.

∠ADC=∠ADB+∠BDC

Since, ∠ADC is right angle.

So, ∠ADC=90 degree

90=∠ADB+∠BDC

$6x-4+4x+24=90\\ 10x+20=90\\ 10x=70\\ x=7$

Dinosaur fossils are often dated by using an element other than carbon, like potassium-40, that has a longer half life (in this

Firlakuza [10]

The amount of substance left of a radioactive element of half life, $t_{\frac{1}{2}}$ after a time, t, is given by:

$N(t)=N_0\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{t_{ \frac{1}{2} }}$

Given that potassium-40 has a half life of approximately 1.25 billion years.

The number of years it will take for 0.1% of potassium-40 to remain is obtained as follows:

$0.1=100\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^ \frac{t}{1.25}}=0.001 \\ \\ \Rightarrow\frac{t}{1.25}\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)=\ln(0.001) \\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{t}{1.25}= \frac{\ln(0.001)}{\ln\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)} =9.966 \\ \\ t=9.966(1.25)=12.5$

Therefore, the maximum age of a fossil that we could date using 40k is 12.5 billion years.

PLEASE HELP Find f(2) if f(x) = (x + 1)2. a 9 b 6 c 5

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 2 in this situation, so plug in 2 for x.

f(2) = (x + 1)2

f(2) = (2 + 1)2

f(2) = (3)2

f(2) = 6

f(2) = 6. That means b is the answer.
