Solve x by simplifying both sides of the equation & then isolating the variable x=-4 & the negative comes in from the -12

A hiker discovers a skull that contains 41% of its original amount of C-14. Find the age of the skull to the nearest year
snow_tiger [21]
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 ( <span> <span> <span> 2.4390243902 </span> </span> </span> ) / 0.30102999566
elapsed time = 5,730 * 0.38721614327 / 0.30102999566
elapsed time = <span> <span> </span></span><span><span><span>5,730 * 1.2863041851 </span> </span> </span>
<span>elapsed time = 7,370.523 years

Which expressions are differences of squares?
Zarrin [17]
If an expression is the difference of two squares, it will follow this format:
(a)^{2}-(b)^{2}
where a and b are integers or variables.

1) w^{2} - 121 = (w)^{2} -( 11)^{2}
Since the expression follows the format, it's a DoTS.

2) Since the binomial has an addition sign, it isn't a DoTS.

3) n^{2}-50=(n)^{2}-(5\sqrt{2})^{2}
The second term isn't an integer, so the expression isn't a DoTS.

4) a^{2}-36=(a)^{2}-(6)^{2}
Since the expression follows the format, it's a DoTS.

Therefore, the first and fourth expressions are differences of two squares.
