Answer:
The age of the pottery bowl to the nearest year is 15606 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the initial amount of C-14 in the bowl i.e. and today (say after t years) the amount of C-14 in the bowl i.e. N = 21.
Therefore, from the given equation we can write
{Since, k is give to be 0.0001}
⇒
Now, taking ln on both sides we get
ln 0.21 = - 0.0001t (ln e) {Since, }
⇒ - 1.560647 = - 0.0001t {We have ln e = 1}
⇒ t = 15606.47 years ≈ 15606 years
Therefore, the age of the pottery bowl to the nearest year is 15606 years.(Answer)
Answer:
44°
Step-by-step explanation:
The reference angle is the magnitude of the smallest angle between the terminal ray and the x-axis.
Your angle is one full circle clockwise plus 44° more (-360° -44° = -404°), so makes an angle of -44° with respect to the positive x-axis. The magnitude of that is 44°.
_____
<em>Using a function</em>
The attachment shows a calculator function that can be used to find the reference angle for any angle. (Replace the value -404 with the angle of your choice.)
