An artifact is discovered at a certain site. if it has 59% of the carbon-14 it originally contained, what is the approximate age

of the artifact to the nearest year? (carbon-14 decays at the rate of 0.0125% annually.)\

0.59 = (1 - 0.000125)^^x where x = number of years of decay

ln 0.59 = x ln(0.999875)

x = 4221 to nearest year

ΔABC and ΔXYZ are similar triangles. The lengths of two sides of each triangle are shown. Find the lengths of the third side of

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

b=9

x=5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

find the common ration

AB is 6, and XY is 3 (they are the corresponding sides)

ratio is 2 to 1 (6/3=2/1)

AC corresponds with YZ

XY is 4.5 so b is 4.5*2=9

ZY corresponds with CB

CB is 11, since XYZ is the smaller divide by 2 instead of multiplying by 2

Terri played 70 tournament chess games during the school year and won 49 of them. What is her win-to-loss ratio?

Scilla [17]

Alright so the answer would be letter B, because

win-to-loss

49 to 21 (You can determine her losses by subtracted the number of wins from her total number of games played)

Now you must simplify your answer

7 is the greatest common factor (GCF) of both 49 and 21

Now divide both 49 and 21 by 7 to get

7 to 3

The product of (3 2i) and a complex number is (17 7i) <br> What is the complex number.

lutik1710 [3]

(I'll assume that the blank spaces are PLUS signs ( + ),
as they usually are on Brainly.)

The mystery complex number is (5 - i) .

(3 + 2i) x (5 - i) = (17 + 7i)

FOIL it out and you'll see it.
