Answer:

2006 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

If it had 50% of its carbon-14 it would be 5730 years old.

Since it has 65% left it is younger than 5730 years.

So it is (1 - 0.65) * 5730

= 2005.5 years old.

"More than 60% of the students scored below the mean on the last test." Can this statement be true? Why or why not?
Lelu [443]
The mean is the average of a set of numbers.

So if the remaining 40% of students score 100 points, and the 60% score like 50 points, then the mean would still be 70 points because of the 40% of students that scored super high.

So yes, it can be true.
