You have to use absolute value to change -922 into positive 922, and then add it to 11,542. That will give you the height of the surface above sea level. Therefore, your answer is 12,464 feet above sea level.

Answer:

12464 feet

Explanation:

It is given that, the deepest point of lake Titicaca in south america is -922 feet relative to its surface. The deepest point is 11,542 feet above sea level. We need to find the elevation of the surface of the lake. Let it is equal to x.

x = height relative to its surface + height above sea level.

x = 922 feet + 11542 feet

x = 12464 feet

So, the elevation of the surface of the lake is 12464 feet. Hence, this is the required solution.

How old is a bone if it still has 50% of its carbon-14 content?
Degger [83]

Answer:

5730 years

Explanation:

The half life of carbon-14 is 5730 years.  If 50% of the carbon-14 remains, then exactly 1 half life has passed.

The half-life equation is:

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

where A is the remaining amount,

A₀ is the initial amount,

t is time,

and T is the half life.

In this case, A = ½ A₀ and T = 5730.

½ A₀ = A₀ (½)^(t / 5730)

½ = (½)^(t / 5730)

1 = t / 5730

t = 5730
