Answer:

-2x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x - 6) is subtracted from (7 - 5).

First term that into an equation.

Because our first term is being subtracted from our second one, our equation is written as:

(7 - 5) - (2x - 6).

Simplify the first term by subtracting:

7 - 5 = 2

Now simplify the second term by multiplying 2x - 6 by -1 to get them out of the parenthesis. We do this because there is a negative sign in front of it.

-1 (2x - 6)

-2x + 6

Now our equation is:

2 - 2x + 6

Combine like terms:

2 + 6 = 8

So -2x + 8

(2x - 6) subtracted from (7 - 5) is -2x+8

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 <span>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, </span><span>the maximum age of a fossil that we could date using 40k is 12.5 billion years.</span>
