Formula for C - 14 dating:
Age = [ ln ( percent/100 ) / ln (1/2 ) ] * 5,730 =
= [ ln ( 0.00921 ) / ln ( 0.5 ) ] * 5.730 =
= [( - 4.68746 ) : ( - 0.6931478 )] * 5,730 =
= 6.7626 * 5,730 = 38,749.56 ≈ 39,000 ( rounded to the nearest thousand )
Answer: The person died about 39,000 years ago.
Do 34 1/2 plus 2 1/2 times 10then do 11/2 into the mixed number 1 1/2 times 6
Take all three trial result averages and add them up
Then take that number and divide by three because there was three numbers added.
That number is the average of the three trials
Answer:
3 twelths is your answer :)
Two lines are perpendicular if and only if the product of their slopes is - 1.
So, you just need to find the slope of each line and find out the product of their slopes.
I will do one example for you.
L1: y = 3x + 5
L2: y = - 3x + 14
L3: y = -x/3 + 14
The slope of a line is the coefficient of the x.
So the slopes are:
L1: slope 3
L2: slope -3
L3: slope -1/3
So now multiply the slopes of each pair of lines:
L1 and L2: 3 * (-3) = - 9 => No, they are not perpendicular
L2 and L3: (-3) * (-1/3) = 1 => No, they are not perpendicular
L1 and L3: (3) * (-1/3) = -1 => Yes, they are penpendicular.
