Answer:

3820 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The age of the skull can be found using carbon-14 by applying the half-life relationship.

Age of skull is given by;

t=(\frac{In\frac{N}{N0} }{-0.693} )*5730

where N=63 N₀=100 -0.693=decay factor of carbon and 5730 =half-life of carbon-14, t =age

substitute values in equation

t=(\frac{In\frac{63}{100} }{-0.693} )*5730\\\\\\t=(\frac{In0.63}{-0.693} )*5730\\\\\\t=(\frac{ -0.4620}{-0.693} )*5730\\\\\\t=(0.6667)*5730\\\\\\t=3820.29\\\\\\t=3820years

Answer:  6i) 6a² - 2ab

               6ii) -2b³

               6iii) b³ + 7b² - 49b

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

6i)   (a + b)(5a - 3b)             +    (a - 3b)(a - b)

=    5a² - 3ab + 5ab - 3b²   +    a² - ab - 3ab + 3b²

=    5a² + 2ab - 3b²             +   a² - 4ab + 3b²

= 6a² - 2ab

6ii)    (a - b)(a² + b² + ab)              -  (a + b)(a² + b² - ab)

=   a³ + ab² + a²b - ab² - a²b - b³ -  (a³ + ab² - a²b -ab² + a²b + b³)

=   a³ - b³                                      -  (a³ + b³)

=   a³ - b³                                      - a³ - b³

= -2b³

6iii) (b² - 49)(b + 7)             +     343

=     b³ + 7b² - 49b - 343    +    343

=     b³ + 7b² - 49b
