Answer:
The correct answer is:
Between 600 and 700 years (B)
Step-by-step explanation:
At a constant decay rate, the half-life of a radioactive substance is the time taken for the substance to decay to half of its original mass. The formula for radioactive exponential decay is given by:

First, let us calculate the decay constant (k)

Next, let us calculate the half-life as follows:

Therefore the half-life is between 600 and 700 years
Answer:
0.95988 (Accuracy of the test )
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the accuracy of this test we have to list out the given values
Prevalence rate of the disease = 0.3% = 0.003
sensitivity rate of the disease = 92% = 0.92
specificity rate for the test = 96% = 0.96
The accuracy of the test can be found using this equation
Accuracy = sensitivity * prevalence + specificity ( 1 - prevalence )
= 0.92 * 0.003 + 0.96 ( 1 - 0.003 )
= 0.00276 + 0.95712
= 0.95988
The answer is -3 because - and - are together plus
