Answer:
The bones were 12,485 years old at the time they were discovered.
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of the element:
The amount of the element after t years is given by the following equation, considering the decay rate proportional to the amount present:
In which A(0) is the initial amount and k is the decay rate, as a decimal.
The radioactive element carbon-14 has a half-life of 5750 years.
This means that 
, and we use this to find k. So
So
A scientist determined that the bones from a mastodon had lost 77.8 % of their carbon-14. How old were the bones at the time they were discovered?
Had 100 - 77.8 = 22.2% remaining, so this is t for which:
Then
The bones were 12,485 years old at the time they were discovered.
Answer:
d) (-3/2, -1/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The midpoint (M) between two given points is the average of their coordinate values:
M = (A + B)/2 = ((-8, 1) +(5, -2))/2 = (-3, -1)/2
M = (-3/2, -1/2) . . . . . matches choice D
What is 9c-c equal when u combined like terms?
8c
<span>You can select from any of the 8 on the first day, leaving 7 to choose from on the second day, leaving 6 for the third. So, 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 or 8! That's 8factorial, so multiply those out or use a calculator to get 8! and that is your answer.</span>
Answer:
$25.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Sure, so the total of the
Item:
30 Dollars ($)
and the discount price is
15 percent (%)
So 30 times 0.15 because 30 is the price in total and 0.15 is the percentage but in a decimal form.
30 times 0.15 equals 4.5
4.5 is the amount that 15 % equals.
30 minus (-) 4.5 because once again the total is 30 and since we have a discount price then we minus (-) the discount price by the total and you get
A total with the discount price as 25.5 Dollars or $25.5
Hope this helps ;)
