Since we are given with the identity of the chemical as Carbon-14, we obtain the half-life of the chemical from a reliable source and get a value of 5730 years. The equation that we are going to use for this item is,
A(t)/A(0) = (0.50)^(n/5730)
where A(t) is the current amount, A(0) is the initial amount and n is the number of years. We know from the given that the ratio of A(t) and A(0) is equal to 0.63. Substituting this to the given,
0.63 = 0.50^(n/5730)
n = 3819.48
Thus, the sample is approximately 3819.5 years old.
Answer:
x= −1
/2 or x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
This is ALGEBRA, equations, factoring and zero property. ok.. let's solve this step-by-step
2x^2−7x=4
<u>Step 1: Subtract 4 from both sides.
</u>
2x^2−7x<u>−4 </u>=4 <u>−4
</u>
2x^2−7x−4=0
<u>Step 2: Factor left side of equation.
</u>
(2x+1)(x−4)=0
<u>Step 3: Set factors equal to 0.
</u>
2x+1=0 or x−4=0
x= −1
/2 or x=4
(BTW, there are supposed to be two answers, it's factoring)
Sorry if the format is not clear, but I hope this helped (really feel you, algebra can be brain-striking)!! Please leave a comment, rating and/or mark as the brainliest-whichever you think I deserve! Thank You :)
Find percent increase by subtracting the amounts and dividing it by the old amount, then multiply the result by 100 to make it a percent.
Increase= (277-210)/210
67/210
Then it ends up as 0.319047619...
Multiply that by 100 to make it a percent, which is..
31.9047619..
Round it off, and you get..
32%!
