Answer:

D. About 800 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the half-life equation:

A = A₀ (½)ⁿ

where A is the final amount,

A₀ is the initial amount,

and n is the number of half-lives.

0.90A₀ = A₀ (½)ⁿ

0.90 = (½)ⁿ

To solve for n, take log of both sides:

log 0.9 = n log 0.5

n = (log 0.9) / (log 0.5)

n = 0.152

It takes 0.152 half-lives. The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years.

0.152 × 5730 years = 871 years

The closest answer is D.

Find the measures of the three angles, in radians, of the triangle with the given vertices: d(1,1,1), e(1,−5,2), and f(−2,2,7).

Oduvanchick [21]

Consider triangle DEF with vertices D(1,1,1), E(1,-5,2) and F(-2,2,7).

1. Find

$\overrightarrow{DE}=(1-1,-5-1,2-1)=(0,-6,1),\\ \\\overrightarrow{DF}=(-2-1,2-1,7-1)=(-3,1,6).$

Then

$\cos \angle D=\dfrac{0\cdot (-3)+(-6)\cdot 1+1\cdot 6}{\sqrt{0^2+(-6)^2+1^2}\cdot \sqrt{(-3)^2+1^2+6^2}}=\dfrac{0}{\sqrt{37} \cdot \sqrt{46} }=0.$

2. Find

$\overrightarrow{ED}=(1-1,1-(-5),1-2)=(0,6,-1),\\ \\\overrightarrow{EF}=(-2-1,2-(-5),7-2)=(-3,7,5).$

Then

$\cos \angle E=\dfrac{0\cdot (-2)+6\cdot 7+(-1)\cdot 5}{\sqrt{0^2+6^2+(-1)^2}\cdot \sqrt{(-3)^2+7^2+5^2}}=\dfrac{37}{\sqrt{37} \cdot \sqrt{83} }=\sqrt{\dfrac{37}{83}}.$

3. Find

$\overrightarrow{FE}=(1-(-2),-5-2,2-7)=(3,-7,-5),\\ \\\overrightarrow{FD}=(1-(-2),1-2,1-7)=(3,-1,-6).$

Then

$\cos \angle F=\dfrac{3\cdot 3+(-7)\cdot (-1)+(-5)\cdot (-6)}{\sqrt{3^2+(-7)^2+(-5)^2}\cdot \sqrt{3^2+(-1)^2+(-6)^2}}=\dfrac{46}{\sqrt{83} \cdot \sqrt{46} }=\sqrt{\dfrac{46}{83}}.$

$\angle E=\arccos0=\dfrac{\pi}{2},\\ \\
\angle D=\arccos\letf(\sqrt{\dfrac{37}{83}}\right)\approx 0.27\pi,\\ \\
\angle F=\arccos\letf(\sqrt{\dfrac{46}{83}}\right)\approx 0.23\pi.$

Helpppppp What’s the prime factorization of 36 and 22

marusya05 [52]

To do this question I recommend dividing each number by the lowest prime number you can each time.

36/2=18
18/2=9
9/3=3
Since 3 is prime we stop there. The prime factors of 36 are therefore 2,2,3, and 3. I would write this as 36=2^2x3^2

22 is simpler as it is just 2x11
