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).

Which correctly describes the graph shown below
Alborosie
The answer is C. Explanation: The line isn’t a straight line, so it can’t be a linear line. Then, do the vertical line test to see if the line is a function (to do this, draw a vertical line through the graph, and see if it passes more than one point on the graph. If the vertical line passes any more than one point on the graph on any spot, it is not a function), and since the graph fails the vertical line test, it is not a function. Therefore, the answer is C.

4. A drawing of the top of a desk iS shown.
KATRIN_1 [288]

The area of the top of a desk which is shown and the dimensions of the top is 5 feet and 2 feet, is 10 squared feet.

<h3>What is the area of a rectangle?</h3>

Area of a rectangle is the product of the length of the rectangle and the width of the rectangle. It can be given as,

A=a\times b

Here, (a)is the length of rectangle and (b) is the width of the rectangle

A drawing of the top of a desk is shown.

  • 5 feet
  • 2 feet

The image of drawing ins not given in the problem. Here, the length of the desk is 5 feet and the width of the desk is 2 feet according to the data.

a=5\rm\; feet\\b=2\rm\; feet

Put the values in the above written formula as,

A=5\times 2A=10\rm\; ft^2

Thus, the area of the top of a desk which is shown and the dimensions of the top is 5 feet and 2 feet, is 10 squared feet.

A student is given the rectangle and the square shown. The student states that the two figures have the
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the sides.

Rectangle ( opposite sides are congruent ), thus

perimeter = 2x + 2(x + 18) = 2x + 2x + 36 = 4x + 36

Square ( sides are congruent ), thus

perimeter = 4(x + 9) = 4x + 36

The perimeters are the same, so the student is correct
