Answer:

231525

2014 = 200,000

Start of 2015

200,000 x 1.05 = 210,000

Start of 2016

210 x 1.05 = 220,500

Start of 2017

Answer:

They are right, the time calculated using the exponential decay equation is 1948.6 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The time can be calculated using the exponential decay equation:

$N_{(t)} = N_{0}e^{-\lambda t}$ (1)

<u>Where</u>:

N(t): is the quantity of C-14 at time t

N₀: is the initial quantity of C-14

λ: is the decay constant

The decay constant is:

$\lambda = \frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}}$ (2)

By entering equation (2) into (1) and solving for t, we have:

$t = \frac{t_{1/2}*ln(N_{t}/N_{0})}{ln(2)} = \frac{5730*ln(0.79)}{ln(2)} = 1948.6 y$

Therefore, the time of the scrolls estimated by the archeologists is right, since the time calculated using the exponential decay equation is 1948.6 years.

I hope it helps you!

Demont made one fourth pound of rock candy.He will separate the candy into four stacks.If he puts an equal amount of candy in ea

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Demont made one fourth ( $\frac{1}{4}$ ) pound of rock candy

He separates the candy into four sacks equally.

This is done by dividing the total fraction of candy of a pound of candy made by the number of sacks

The fraction of a pound of candy that will be in each sack therefore is:

$\frac{1}{4}\div 4= \frac{1}{4}X\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{16}$

Therefore, One-Sixteenth of a pound of candy will be in each of the sack.

A 6 inch personal pizza has 640 calories, with 240 of those from fat. A 12 inch pizza is cutinto 8 slices. Estimate the number o

MissTica

Given:

Number calories in a 6-inch pizza = 640 calories

For the pizza of 6 inch

$A=\pi(3)^2=9\pi$

For the pizza of 12 inch

$A=\pi(6)^2=36\pi$

Number calories in a 6-inch pizza = 640 calories, therefore:

$\frac{A_{6\text{ inch}}}{A_{12\text{ inch}}}=\frac{640}{x}$

Substitute:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{9\pi}{36\pi}=\frac{640}{x} \\ Simplify \\ \frac{1}{4}=\frac{640}{x} \end{gathered}$

And solve for x:

$\begin{gathered} 1\cdot x=4\cdot640 \\ x=2560 \end{gathered}$

Now, Estimate the number of calories in one slice of a 12 inch pizza:

$\frac{2560}{8}=320$

Answer: 320 calories
