The two straight lines around the number indicate absolute value. Absolute value is the distance from the number to zero (essentially how many marks away on a number line).
It is equal to
100.
Therefore, the bones were 6612.5 years old at the time they were discovered.
<h3><u>Half life</u></h3>
Given that the radioactive element carbon-14 has a half-life of 5750 years, and a scientist determined that the bones from a mastodon had lost 57.5% of their carbon-14, to determine how old were the bones at the time they were discovered, the following calculation must be made:
- 50 = 5750
- 100 = 11500
- 57.5 = X
- 57.5 x 11500 / 100 = X
- 6612.5 = X
Therefore, the bones were 6612.5 years old at the time they were discovered.

A9=A1+(n-1)
-2.75+(8*0.25)
-2.75+2=-0.75
Answer:
ok so first
2.1 divided by 3.2 =0.65625
0.65625*11.5=7.546875
So the answer is B
