Situation:A researcher in North America discoversa fossile that contains 65% of its originalamount of C-14..-ktN=NoeNo inital am

zheka24 [161]

SOLUTION

We have been given the equation of the decay as

$\begin{gathered} N=N_0e^{-kt} \\ where\text{ } \\ N_0=initial\text{ amount of C-14 at time t} \\ N=amount\text{ of C-14 at time t = 65\% of N}_0=0.65N_0 \\ k=0.0001 \\ t=time\text{ in years = ?} \end{gathered}$

So we are looking for the time

Plugging the values into the equation, we have

$\begin{gathered} N=N_0e^{-kt} \\ 0.65N_0=N_0e^{-0.0001t} \\ e^{-0.0001t}=\frac{0.65N_0}{N_0} \\ e^{-0.0001t}=0.65 \end{gathered}$

Taking Ln of both sides, we have

$\begin{gathered} ln(e^{-0.000t})=ln(0.65) \\ -0.0001t=ln(0.65) \\ t=\frac{ln(0.65)}{-0.0001} \\ t=4307.82916 \end{gathered}$

Hence the answer is 4308 to the nearest year

The two-way table shows the distribution of gender to favorite film genre for the senior class at Mt. Rose High School.

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The second statement is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The table shows the information of the favorite film genre of the students of the class regarding their gender.

You have to prove which statement is correct:

1)The probability of randomly selecting a student who has a favorite genre of drama and is also female is about 17 percent.

If you chose a student at random, you need to calculate the probability of its favorite genre being "Drama" (D) and the student being female (F), symbolically: P(D∩F)

To do so you have to divide the number of observed students that are female and like drama by the total number of students:

P(D∩F)= $\frac{24}{240}= \frac{1}{10} =0.10$

This means that the probability of choosing a student at random and it being a female that likes drama is 10%.

This statement is incorrect.

2) Event F for female and event D for drama are independent events.

Two events are independent when the occurrence of one of them doesn't affect the probability of occurrence of the other one.

So if F and D are independent then:

P(F)= P(F|D)

-or-

P(D)=P(D|F)

The probability of the event "Female" is equal to $P(F)= \frac{Total females in the class}{n} = \frac{144}{240} = \frac{3}{5}= 0.6$

The probability of the event "Drama" is:

$P(D)= \frac{Total students that like "Drama"}{n}= \frac{40}{240}= \frac{1}{6}= 0.166$

$P(F|D)= \frac{P(FnD)}{P(D)}= \frac{\frac{1}{10} }{\frac{1}{6} }= \frac{3}{5} = 0.6$

As you can see P(F)= 0.6 and P(F|D)= 0.6 so both events are independent.

This statement is correct.

3) The probability of randomly selecting a male student, given that his favorite genre is horror, is 16/40

This is a conditional probability, you already know that the student likes horror movies (H), and out of that group you want to know the probability of the student being male (M):

$P(M|H)= \frac{number of male students that like horror movies}{total students that like horror movies}= \frac{16}{38}= \frac{8}{19} = 0.42$
