Answer:
This is a radioactive decay / half-life problem.
Initial amount of C 14 = 100% Present Amount = 57%
k = .0001 (that value should be negative)
Nt = No * e^ (k*t)
You need to solve that equation for "time" (equation attached)
time = natural log (Ending amount / Starting Amount) / k
time = natural log (57% / 100%) / -.0001
time = ln (.57) / -.0001
time = -.56211891815 / -.0001
time = 5,621.2 years (age of the bird skeleton)
These problems are quite complicated but I think I know this pretty well.

Answer: 12 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that Marie walk 680 miles to the south pole and that the trip took 58 days and they travel the same distance each day.
The number of miles that they travel each day to the nearest whole number will be gotten by dividing 680 miles by 58. This will be:
= 680 miles / 58
= 11.72
= 12 miles to nearest whole number.
To find the total cost of Mikayla's purchase, we add together the costs of the skirts and tops. The costs of the skirts can be found be multiplying the quantity bought by the cost per skirt. Same goes for the tops.
