Answer:

332,193 years

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question above, we are to calculate the time in an half life question, hence, the formula is given as

t = In(Nt/No) ÷ -(In2/t½)

Where

t = time is takes for an substance to decay or reduce

Nt = Amount of sample after time = 2g

No = Initial amount of sample = 20g

t½ = Half life = 100,000 years

Hence,

t = In(2/20) ÷ (In 2/ 100,000)

t = 332192.80948874 years

Approximately = 332,193 years

Ahat [919]

Answer:

It is expected that linearization beyond age 20 will be use a function whose slope is monotonously decreasing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The linearization of the data by first order polynomials may be reasonable for the set of values of age between ages from 5 to 15 years, but it is inadequate beyond, since the fourth point, located at (x,y) = (20, 5.5), in growing at a lower slope. It is expected that function will be monotonously decreasing and we need to use models alternative to first order polynomials as either second order polynomic models or exponential models.
