Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Decay of carbon - 14 is exponential in nature . It decays as follows .
λ is called decay constant .
λ = .693 / T where T is half life .
Half life of carbon-14 is 5700 years
λ = .693 / T
= .693 / 5700
= 12.158 x 10⁻⁵ year⁻¹
N = .71 N₀
Taking ln on both sides
ln .71 = - λ t
ln .71 = - 12.158 x 10⁻⁵ t
-0.3425 = - 12.158 x 10⁻⁵ t
t = .3425 / 12.158 x 10⁻⁵
2817 years .
Answer:
so let's call the unknown number x.
-5/4 x X = 7/2
by changing the subject, X = 7/2 / -5/4
to divide fractions, we turn the fraction we're dividing by upside down and change the sign to multiplication. so X = 7/2 x 4/-5
after multiplying, X =>28/-10
simplified, X = 14/-5

- [Right Triangles Only] Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
We are given a right triangle. We can use PT to solve for the missing length.
<u>Step 2: Identify Variables</u>
Leg <em>a</em> = 6
Leg <em>b</em> = <em>x</em>
Hypotenuse <em>c</em> = √89
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Set up equation: 6² + x² = (√89)²
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: x² = (√89)² - 6²
- Exponents: x² = 89 - 36
- Subtract: x² = 53
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = √53
