The half life of Carbon 14 is 5730 years. By substituting the given figures to the formula x=I(1/2)^n where x is the amount of the remaining material, I is the initial amount and n is the quotient between the time elapsed and carbon 14's halflife. You will arise with the formula x=20(1/2)^1.745. You will get 5.97 mg.

Why is pollution so widespread
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

Land can become polluted by household garbage and by industrial waste. In 2014, Americans produced about 258 million tons of solid waste, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. A little over half of the waste — 136 million tons— was gathered in landfills. Only about 34% was recycled or composted.
