Okay, here we have this:
Considering the provided information, we are going to identify wich equation applies, so we obtain the following:
Where x represents the uknown number. Then finally we obtain that the correct equation is the third one.
Now, let's find the missing number solving the equation:
Finally we obtain that the number is equal to 19.
Answer:
The approximate age of the bone is approximately 11552 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
The current proportion of carbon-14 with respect to its original amount is defined by following formula:
(1)
Where:
- Current amount of carbon-14, no unit.
- Initial amount of carbon-14, no unit.
- Time, in years.
If we know that , then the approximate age of the bone is:
The approximate age of the bone is approximately 11552 years.
