Using proportions, it is found that the life span of the person would be 14 years, 212 days and 22 hours shorter.
---------------------------
- 2 packs a day for 35 years is 40 cigarettes a day for 12775 days, as
. - Thus, a total of 511000 cigarettes, as
. - Assuming each cigarette costs 15 minutes of life, the person loses 7665000 minutes of life, as
- One year has 525600 minutes, thus the person loses 14 years of life, as
- Looking at the decimal part, the person loses 212 days of life, as
- Again looking at the decimal part, 22 hours, as
- Thus, the person loses 14 years, 212 days and 22 hours of life.

Answer:
t = 6162 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently you are asked to use the constant k = 0.0001 instead of the most common 0.00012. We'll answer the problem using such number you typed, but make sure that there is no omission in your typing.
The equation to use is that for carbon decay:
If the skull contains 54% of its original amount of C14, then that means that :
we use this to solve for the time (t) in our equation:
which rounded to the nearest year as requested gives :
t = 6162 years
Answer:
<h2><u>
x=−3/7</u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
34x=27x−3
Step 1: Subtract 27x from both sides.
34x−27x=27x−3−27x
7x=−3
Step 2: Divide both sides by 7.
7x\7=−3\7
x=−3/7

Split the 32 according to the parts
------------------------------------------------
4 parts = 32
1 part = 32 ÷ 4
1 part = 8
3 part = 8 x 3 = 24
------------------------------------------------
Split the 32 into the ratio
------------------------------------------------
24 : 8
------------------------------------------------
Answer: 24 : 8
