Answer: The amount of carbon-14 remaining after 4 years is 99.95 grams.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we simply have to substitute t=4 in the equation given and solve for c.
c= 100 (0.99988)^t
c =100 (0.99988)^4
c = 100 x 0.999520086
c= 99.95200864 ≅99.95 grams (rounded)
The amount of carbon-14 remaining after 4 years is 99.95 grams.
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
I'm guessing you want this written as an equation, so here it is.
3n+7>2(n-4)
These can be really tricky at times, so I suggest looking for "clues" in the wording, such as add, subtract, and other things. Also look for what numbers are "paired" together, like in parentheses. Hope that this helps!
