The answer is 46,000 years.

It can be calculated using the equation:

 (1/2) ^{n} = decimal amount remaining, where n is a number of half-lives.

Decimal amount remaining is 0.00362 (= 0.362%). Let's calculate number of half-lives.

(1/2)^{n} =0.00362

⇒ n*log(1/2)=log(0.00362)

⇒ n= \frac{log(0.00362)}{log(1/2)}= \frac{log(0.00362)}{log(0.5)}

⇒ n ≈ 8


Now we know that number of half-lives is 8.

Number of half-lives is quotient of total time elapsed and length of half-life.
So, total time elapsed is a product of length of half-life (5,730 years) and number of half-lives (8). Since 5,730 years × 8 = 45,840 years, then the person died 46,000 years ago (rounded to the nearest thousand).

Find the distance of the following points from the x axis: P(3,0) , Q(0,-3) , R(12,-4) , S(-4,-3)
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Distance of point P(3,0) from x axis is zero as this point lies on x axis.

distance of point Q is 3.

Distance of point R is 4.

Distance of point S is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Point P already lies on x axis as its y coordinate is zero so its distance from x axis is zero

distance of points Q , R and S is the absolute value of their y coordinates that is 3 , 4 and 3 respectively.
