Carbon–14 is a radioactive isotope that decays exponentially at a rate of 0.0124 percent a year. How many years will it take for

carbon–14 to decay to 10 percent of its original amount? The equation for exponential decay is At = A0e–rt.

A(t) = Ao*e^(-rt)

-rt = ln [ A(t)/ Ao]

t = - ln [ A(t)/ Ao] / r

r= 0.0124% = 0.0124/100 = 0.000124

A(t)/A0 = 10% = 10/100 = 0.1

Now substitute

t = - ln [0.1] / 0.000124 = 2.3025851 / 0.000124 = 18,569 years

Your result will depend on how you round ln(0.1).

Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

This is very simple, but I can help more if you're stuck.

Take the number of pounds multiplied by the cost per pound.

For example, if I had 5 pounds of peaches, and they are $2 per pound...

5 pounds * $2 per pound = $10

Try it on your own :)

Answer:

6c + 36 =  6(c+6)

(6*c) + (6*6) =   6(c+6)

2(3c+3) =  6c+6

(6+c)+(6+6) =  neither

3c+6+3c =  6c+6

6c+12 =  neither

correct me if I am wrong cuz i haven't done this in 2 years

Answer:

P(\text{Male}|\text{Divorced})\approx0.092

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle P(\text{Male}|\text{Divorced})=\frac{P(\text{Male and Divorced})}{P(\text{Male})}=\frac{\frac{9.6}{214.7}}{\frac{104.5}{214.7}}\approx0.092

We can even break this down further by simply only looking at the total amount of males, and finding the proportion of males that are divorced, which is \frac{9.6}{104.5}\approx0.092, the same value.

Note that P(Male | Divorced) means the probability of choosing a male, given (|) that person is divorced.
