Answer:
D. About 800 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the half-life equation:
A = A₀ (½)ⁿ
where A is the final amount,
A₀ is the initial amount,
and n is the number of half-lives.
0.90A₀ = A₀ (½)ⁿ
0.90 = (½)ⁿ
To solve for n, take log of both sides:
log 0.9 = n log 0.5
n = (log 0.9) / (log 0.5)
n = 0.152
It takes 0.152 half-lives. The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years.
0.152 × 5730 years = 871 years
The closest answer is D.
(-2)(-24)
(-3)(-16)
(-4)(-12)
(-6)(-8)
-(-1)(-48)
1*48
2*24
3*16
4*12
6*8
Note that f(1) = 6(1)+2 = 8. Next, evaluate g(x) at x=8: g(f(1)) = g(8) = 2(8) + 4/5, or 16 4/5.
