Answer:
(3,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
We need the half-life of C-14 which is 5,730 years.
Now, we will need a half-life equation:
elapsed time = half-life * log (bgng amt / ending amt) / log 2
We'll say beginning amount = 100 and ending amount = 41
elapsed time = 5,730 * log (100/41) / log 2
elapsed time = 5,730 * log (

) / 0.30102999566
elapsed time = 5,730 * 0.38721614327 / 0.30102999566
elapsed time =

Let's make equation for this problem. Let's say the population of LV is x, then Sacramento will be x+275 since <span>Sacramento had 275 thousand more residents than Las Vegas. Remember that their total population is 2669, so your equation will be </span>
If you solve this equation, you have x=1197, that is population of LV. So Sacramento is 1472.
