A+b+c=5982
find the average of the three friends
5982/3=1994
add and subtract one to find the average
1994+1=1995
1994-1=1993
add all the years together to check
1993+1994+1995=5983
Im not sure why it brought me here it just brought me here sorry
To figure this out, always divide y by x in each table. All of the values have to be equal or the table isn’t proportional.
In this case, the last choice is proportional.
Answer:
6 plus or minus square root of 37/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Is the quadratic formula allowed or no?
7978 years
Step-by-step explanation:
A = A02^(-t/hl)
where hl = half-life.
Dividing both sides by A0 and taking the logarithm, we get
ln(A/A0) = -(t/hl)ln2
or solving for t,
t= -(hl)ln(A/A0)/ln2
note that A/A0 = 0.38
t = -(5715 yrs)[ln(0.38)/ln2]
= 7978 years
