Scientists use carbon-14 dating to determine the age of a sample of organic material. a. The amount C (in grams) of a 100-gram s

ample of carbon-14 remaining after t years is represented by the equation C=100(0.99988)t C = 100 ( 0.99988 ) t . Use a calculator to find the amount of carbon-14 remaining after 4 years. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. The amount of carbon-14 remaining is about grams. b. What percent of the carbon-14 remains after 4 years? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. The percent of carbon-14 remaining is about %.

Answer:

a) 99.95 grams are remaining after 4 years.

b) The percent of carbon-14 remaining is about 99.95%

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of carbon 14 remaining after t years is given by the following equation:

C(t) = 100(0.99988)^{t}

a) Amount remaining after 4 years.

C(t) = 100(0.99988)^{4} = 99.95

99.95 grams are remaining after 4 years.

b) Percentage remaining after 4 years:

p = \frac{100*C(4)}{C(0)} = \frc{100*99.95}{100} = 99.95

The percent of carbon-14 remaining is about 99.95%

The graph of a liner function is shown on the coordinate grid. what is the slope of the graph of this function?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer: C -7/3

Step-by-step explanation: Slope is rise over run, rise/run, and your line means your slope will be negative. So, you will first count straigt down from your firt point until you reach the line of the second point, which is 7. Next, you would count/run to the point, which is 3. Rise/run = -7/3. I hope this helps :)

a man invests a total of 5000 in a bank account that yields 5% interest compound monthly. how much will it be worth after 6 year
kaheart [24]

Answer:

  6745.09

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume the nominal annual interest rate is 5%, then the future value after 6 years is ...

  FV = P(1 +r/12)^(12·t)

for P = 5000, r = .05, t = 6.

Doing the arithmetic, we get ...

  FV = 5000(1 +.05/12)^(12·6) ≈ 6745.09

After 6 years, the bank account will be worth 6745.09.

_____

We made a comment about the interest rate, because the annual <em>yield</em> is about 5.116%. If the <em>annual yield</em> is actually 5%, then the account value is lower: $6700.48. (Monthly compounding is irrelevant in that case, because it is already figured into the yield.)

Usually, the wording would be that the account <em>earns</em> 5% interest compounded monthly.
