Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Decay of carbon - 14 is exponential in nature . It decays as follows .
λ is called decay constant .
λ = .693 / T where T is half life .
Half life of carbon-14 is 5700 years
λ = .693 / T
= .693 / 5700
= 12.158 x 10⁻⁵ year⁻¹
N = .71 N₀
Taking ln on both sides
ln .71 = - λ t
ln .71 = - 12.158 x 10⁻⁵ t
-0.3425 = - 12.158 x 10⁻⁵ t
t = .3425 / 12.158 x 10⁻⁵
2817 years .
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, 1/5 of an hour is 60/5=12. U can then multuply 12 and 1/4 which is 3 miles per hour.

Answer:
a) (x/2 +3)^2
b) (5a -3b)^2
c) (x/3 +y/5)^2
d) (10b -3c)^2
e) (a/4 -2b)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming you can do that, write the terms of the quadratic in lexicographical order. (The square terms will be first and last.) Then the binomial is the "sum" of the square roots of the first and last terms with the sign of the middle term.
Using (e) as an example, the term are already in order. (In (d), they need to be rearranged.) The first term is 1/16a^2, and its square root is 1/4a = a/4. The last term is 4b^2 and its square root is 2b. The sign of the middle term is negative, so these two roots will be separated by a minus sign:
(a/4 - 2b)^2
The expression you want is the square of the binomial.
_____
As a check, you can make sure that double the product of these terms is the middle term of the trinomial you started with.
In this example, that double product is 2·a/4·(-2b) = -ab, which exactly matches the middle term you started with.
