In 386750.36 years the Carbon - 14 will be 20 g in the substance

Step-by-step explanation:

Here A = 20 g

The given equation is,

A= 25e - 0.000124t

We need to find the value of t

20 = 25e - 0.000124t

20 - 25e = - 0.000124t

25e - 20 = 0.000124t

(25e - 20 ) / 0.000124 = t

t = (25e - 20) / 0.000124

t = (65.957 - 20) / 0.000124

t = 45.957 / 0.000124

t = 386750.36 years

Answer:

ln (0.8)/-0.00012 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the equation as shown below.

\begin{aligned}25\cdot e^{-0.00012t}&=20\\\\ e^{-0.00012t}&=0.8\\\\ -0.00012t&=\ln\left(0.8\right)\\\\ t&=\dfrac{{\,\ln\left(0.8\right)}}{-0.00012}\\\\ \end{aligned}  

25⋅e  

−0.00012t

 

e  

−0.00012t

 

−0.00012t

t

​  

 

=20

=0.8

=ln(0.8)

=  

−0.00012

ln(0.8)

​  

 

​  

 

It will take \dfrac{{\,\ln\left(0.8\right)}}{-0.00012}  

−0.00012

ln(0.8)

​

Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.<br><br> 13.48x − 200 &lt; 256.12
wolverine [178]

Answer:

<h2>x < 33.84</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

13.48x − 200 < 256.12

Using the addition property , add 200 to both sides

That's

13.48x + 200 - 200 < 256.12 + 200

13.48x < 456.12

<u>Divide both sides by 13.48</u>

\frac{13.48x}{13.48}   <   \frac{456.12}{13.48}  \\ x  <  \frac{456.12}{13.48}  \\  \:  \:  \:  x  <  33.83679

We have the final answer as

x < 33.84 to the nearest hundredth

Hope this helps you

Point E is the midpoint of AB and point F is the midpoint of CD .
Gwar [14]

Answer:

# AB is bisected by CD

# AE = 1/2 AB

# CE + EF = FD

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about the mid point

- The mid-point of a segment is divided the segment into two

  equal parts

- The figure has line segment AB

- E is the mid-point of AB

∴ E divides the line segment AB into two equal parts

∴ AE = EB

∴ AE = 1/2 AB ⇒ (1)

- Any line passes through the point E will bisects the line segment AB

∴ AB is bisected by CD ⇒ (2)

∵ F is the mid-point of CD

∴ F divides the line segment CD into two equal parts

∴ CF = FD

∵ Point E lies on CF

∴ CE + EF = CF

∵ CF = FD

∴ CE + EF = FD ⇒ (3)

* There are three statements must be true (1) , (2) , (3)

# AB is bisected by CD

# AE = 1/2 AB

# CE + EF = FD
