Since there is a shortage in the budget in 2005 by 553,656,965,393.18, the total debt that of the United States in 2005 will be the public debt by 2004 added with this deficit in the budget. Having said that, the public debt by 2004 should be equal to,
$ 7.9327 x 10^12
Since we are given with the identity of the chemical as Carbon-14, we obtain the half-life of the chemical from a reliable source and get a value of 5730 years. The equation that we are going to use for this item is,
A(t)/A(0) = (0.50)^(n/5730)
where A(t) is the current amount, A(0) is the initial amount and n is the number of years. We know from the given that the ratio of A(t) and A(0) is equal to 0.63. Substituting this to the given,
0.63 = 0.50^(n/5730)
n = 3819.48
Thus, the sample is approximately 3819.5 years old.

Answer:
x ≈ - 9.41, x ≈ - 6.59
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x² + 16x + 62 = 0 ( subtract 62 from both sides )
x² + 16x = - 62
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides
x² + 2(8)x + 64 = - 62 + 64
(x + 8)² = 2 ( take the square root of both sides )
x + 8 = ±
( subtract 8 from both sides )
x = - 8 ± 
Hence
x = - 8 -
≈ - 9.41
x = - 8 +
≈ - 6.59
Answer: The best estimate for this is 52.
