Answer:
Kenny has eaten 44 scoops of ice cream.
We need the half-life of C-14 which is 5,730 years.
Now, we will need a half-life equation:
elapsed time = half-life * log (bgng amt / ending amt) / log 2
We'll say beginning amount = 100 and ending amount = 41
elapsed time = 5,730 * log (100/41) / log 2
elapsed time = 5,730 * log (

) / 0.30102999566
elapsed time = 5,730 * 0.38721614327 / 0.30102999566
elapsed time =

Your equations are right. just use the substitution method to solve. substitute y because both have that on one side
it'll look like 40x+30=30x+60.
then just get x in one side. I showed my owrk in the photo
Answer:
190 Baseballs
Step-by-step explanation:
Since he put 304 baseballs into 8 trash cans with an equal amt. in each,
--> we do 304/8 to find how much baseballs we put in each
=> 304/8 = 38
Now, we takes 5 of these 38 trash cans filled with balls to the field
--> we would do <em>5 x 38 => 5 x 38 = 190</em>
and Thus, we have our answer of <u>190 baseballs</u>
Hope this helps!
