Answer:
The squared term is 1/25
Step-by-step explanation:
The parabola equation in the vertex form is
where point (h,k) is the vertex and a is the squared term. In this case h = 2 and k = -4. On the other hand, we know that y = -3 and x = -3 are in the parabola. Replacing these values in the formula gives
Solving for a
Answer: 4.35 - 5.5 = -1.15 ≈ - (23÷20)
Step-by-step explanation:
4.35 - 5.5= -1.15
The equivalent equation to 4.35 - 5.5 will be,
-1.15 ≈ - (23÷20)

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
