While taking a hike in the forest, you find some fossils in layers of sedimentary rocks whose age you later find out is said to

cover a span of 100–400 million years. You decide to send the fossils out for analysis to a company that dates rocks by radioactive decay, and, some weeks later, receive a report informing you that a volcanic ash bed associated with one of the fossils has a 1:1 ratio of 235U: 207Pb. Do these data support or refute the assumed age of the rocks in which the fossil was found? (Note: The half-life of 235U is about 700 million years, and its decay product is 207Pb.) Yes, because the ratio of 235U to 207Pb represents one half-life, and that would be approximately 350 million years old. No, because the ratio of 235U to 207Pb represents one half-life, and that would be about 700 million years old. No, because the rock layers are less than 704 million years old. Yes, because the rock layers are less than 704 million years old.

Answer: Yes, because the rock layers are less than 704 million years old.

Explanation: before sending out the fossil sample for examination it was estimated that to be between 100-400 million years old, the data gotten from the results after proper examination supports earlier findings on the age of the rock. Because the fossil dates back to over 350 million years

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Net present value is the present value of after-tax cash flows from an investment less the amount invested.  

Only projects with a positive NPV should be accepted. A project with a negative NPV should not be chosen because it isn't profitable.  

When choosing between positive NPV projects, choose the project with the highest NPV first because it is the most profitable.

NPV can be calculated using a financial calculator  

Cash flow in year 0 = $-165,000

Cash flow in year 1 - 6  = $45,000

I = 12%

NPV = $20,013.33

the project should be approved because NPV is positive

To find the NPV using a financial calculator:

1. Input the cash flow values by pressing the CF button. After inputting the value, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.

2. after inputting all the cash flows, press the NPV button, input the value for I, press enter and the arrow facing a downward direction.  

3. Press compute

Initially, a reduction in export subsidies decreases net exports at any given real exchange rate, causing the demand for dollars
romanna [79]

Answer:

Decreases; increasing

Explanation:

However, the reduction in expenditure on export subsidies <u>decreases </u>the fiscal deficit, thereby <u>increasing</u> public saving.

National savings refers to the sum of public and private savings. Public savings is the government budget balance. An increase in the balance or decrease in deficit implies the public savings increase and also increase in national savings. Then, the decrease in subsidy spending decreases government deficit and increases national savings and supply of loanable funds, so the loanable funds shift to the right.
