The half-life of carbon-14 is 5,730 years. Suppose a fossil is found with 30 percent as
much of its carbon-14 as compared to a living sample. How old is the fossil?

28,993 years
9,955 years
2,899 years
996 years

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

0.5^(t/5730) = 0.30

2^(-t/5730) = 0.30

-t/5730 = log₂0.30

t = -5730 log₂0.30 ≈ 9953 years

An airplane goes down from 42,000 feet to 18,000 feet in 12 minutes. What is the rate of change of the altitude in feet per minute?

Answers

Change in altitude:

42,000 - 18,000 = 24,000 feet

Rate of change  = 24,000 feet / 12 minutes = 2,000 feet per minute

Because the plane was going down, the rate of change would be negative.

The rate would be -2,000 feet per minute.

There are 5 times as many orange popsicles as grape popsicles in Reid's freezer. There are 12 more orange popsicles than grape popsicles. How many grape popsicles are there in Reid's freezer?

Answers

Answer:

3 grape popsicles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent

Orange popsicles = x

Grape popsicles = y

There are 5 times as many orange popsicles as grape popsicles in Reid's freezer.

x = 5y ..... Equation 1

There are 12 more orange popsicles than grape popsicles.

x = y + 12..... Equation 2

Hence, we substitute 5y for x in Equation 2

5y = y + 12

5y - y = 12

4y = 12

y = 12/4

y = 3

Note that, Grape popsicles = y

y = 3 grape popsicles.

Therefore, the number of grape popsicles that are there in Reid's freezer is 3 grape popsicles

What is the LCM (least common multiple) of 2 and 7

Answers

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common multiple of 2 and 7 is 1, because they are both prime numbers (numbers that cannot be divided by anything other than one or themselves).

Why bother with the greatest common multiple?

There's a very sneaky formula you can do to calculate the LCM with this.

[tex]lcm(a, b) = \frac{|a * b|}{gcd(a, b)}[/tex]

where lcm(a, b) = the least common multiple of integers a and b (1)

a = integer a (2)

b = integer b (7)

gcd(a, b) = greatest common divisor of integers a and b

So let's use it, we have all the available numbers.

[tex]lcm(a, b) = \frac{|2 * 7|}{1} = 14[/tex]


12.) Rachel is comparing the cost of two parking garages. Garage A charges a flat fee of $6 to park plus $0.50 per hour.
Garage B charges a flat fee of $2 to park plus $1 per hour. Write an equation then find after how many hours will the
cost at garage A and garage B be the same? What will that cost be? (4 points total)

Answers

Answer:

The equation: 6 + 0.5x = 2 + 1x

How many hours till the cost is the same: 8 hours

What will the cost be: $10

Step-by-step explanation:

6 + 0.5x = 2 + 1x

subtract 0.5x from both sides

6 = 2 + 0.5x

subtract 2 from both sides

4 = 0.5x

divide both sides by 0.5

x = 8

Lets check our work:

Garage A:

6 + 0.5(8)

6 + 4 = 10

Garage B:

2 + 1(8)

2 + 8 = 10

After 8 hours the price for both garages will be equal at $10

Lola's hair today is 24" long. It grows 1.5" per month. She is a pretty tall girl for her age, about 60" right now! Her brother has long hair too. His hair is about 12" long. What does the y stand for?

Answers

If I'm correct, you're asking which variable is the dependent variable y from the question

Answer and explanation:

The equation can be modelled:

y= 1.5x

Where y is the current length of the hair

x is the number of months of hair growth

We can see from the equation therefore that y is a dependent variable that depends on x the independent variable, the number of months, to get a value. In other words given that her hair grows at a constant rate of 1.5 inches per month, her hair length is based on number of months x of growth in inches of hair.

A.21

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use trigonometry to slove for sides in this triangle...

Using the 60 degree angle...we can solve for x.

We are dealing with adjacent and opposite sides, so we use the tangent function in the calculator.

And since we're using tangent, we have to use opposite/adjacent

We have tan60=x/7sqrt3-multiply the adjacent side(7qrt3) to the other side,

and we have 7sqrt3tan60=x--enter this in to you're calculator, and you should

i need to find the measure of angle L

Answers

Answer:

Angel L = 52°

Step-by-step explanation:

In ∆ JKL,

J = 8x + 6°

K = 2x + 2°

L = 4x+ 4°

L =?

Let's solve this question with the help of Angle Sum Property of a Triangle (ASPT).

We know that all angles in a triangle add up to 180°.

180 = ∆JKL

180 = J + K + L

180 = (8x + 6) + (2x + 2) + (4x + 4)

180 = 8x + 6 + 2x + 2 + 4x + 4

180 = 8x + 2x + 4x + 6 + 2 + 4

180 = 14x + 12

14x = 180 - 12

14x = 168

x = 168/14

x = 12°.

Now, L° = 4x + 4

= 4(12) + 4

= 48 + 4

= 52°.

Answers

Using the hypergeometric distribution, it is found that the probability is 12/132

------------------------------------

The rolls are chosen from a sample without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

------------------------------------

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

------------------------------------

12 rolls means that [tex]N = 12[/tex]4 defective means that [tex]k = 4[/tex]2 are chosen, which means that [tex]n = 2[/tex]

------------------------------------

What is the probability of selecting two defective rolls?

This is P(X = 2). So

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,12,2,4) = \frac{C_{4,2}*C_{8,0}}{C_{12,2}} = \frac{4 \times 3}{12 \times 11} = \frac{12}{132}[/tex]

12/132 is the probability.
