Tyrell worked on
16 - 2(4 + 3x)
what do brackets mean ? they mean that this operation has to be done before everything else in the expression.
as this contains a variable, we cannot fully calculate it, true, but we need to keep this in mind and always treat the content of the brackets as one package.
so, whatever I do from the outside with one part of that package, I have to do also with all the other parts of that package.
so, the multiplication with -2 has to happen with both : 4 and 3x. not just with 4.
therefore, the correct simplification looks like
16 - 8 - 6x
8 - 6x or -6x + 8
Amelia multiplied correctly, but then made a mistake summing things up
10x - 3(4x + 1)
10x - 12x - 3
10x - 12x = -2x
I can't mix the pure constant -3 into the factors of x. that would be like the famous mixing of apples and oranges.
so, the result is
-2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:
7978 years
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
I believe the answer to your question is b.
Yes Karis is correct I hope this helps and if its wrong let me know but I'm sure I'm correct
