The half-life of Carbon-14 is 5730 years. Suppose a fossil is found with 50% of Carbon-14 as compared to a living sample. How old is the fossil?

A) 5730 years
B) 57 years
C) 5728 years
D) 572 years

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it takes 5730 years for half of a sample of carbon-14 atoms to decay. It says that 50% of the carbon atoms have decayed so that means that 5730 years have elapsed for that fossil.

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

In a ∆ABC , angle A + Angle B = 125° and Angle B + Angle C = 150° . Find all the angles of ∆ABC.​

Answers

[tex]\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}[/tex]

Given that,

In triangle ABC

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle A + \angle B = 125 \degree \: - - - (1) }[/tex]

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle B + \angle C = 150 \degree \: - - - (2)}[/tex]

We know,

Sum of all interior angles of a triangle is supplementary.

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180\degree }[/tex]

On adding equation (1) and (2), we get

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle A + \angle B + \angle B + \angle C = 125\degree + 150 \degree \:}[/tex]

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle A + \angle B + \angle C + \angle B = 275\degree \:}[/tex]

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:180\degree + \angle B = 275\degree \:}[/tex]

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle B = 275\degree - 180\degree \:}[/tex]

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle B = 95\degree \:}[/tex]

On substituting the value in equation (1) and (2), we get

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle A + 95\degree = 125\degree }[/tex]

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle A = 125\degree - 95\degree }[/tex]

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle A = 30\degree }[/tex]

Also, from equation (2), we get

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:95\degree + \angle C = 150\degree }[/tex]

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle C = 150\degree - 95\degree }[/tex]

[tex] \purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\angle C = 55\degree }[/tex]

Hence,

[tex]\begin{gathered}\begin{gathered}\bf\: \rm\implies \:\begin{cases} &\sf{\angle A = 30\degree } \\ \\ &\sf{\angle B = 95\degree } \\ \\ &\sf{\angle C = 55\degree } \end{cases}\end{gathered}\end{gathered}[/tex]

Answer:

angle A=30°

angle B=95°

angle C=55°

Answers

Answer:

J= 16.857°

K= 88 .4°

L=74.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

let x represent the angle of J

x° +(4x+21)° +(2x+41)° =180°

x + 4x + 21 + 2x + 41= 180° ( sum of angles in a triangle)

Collect like terms

x + 4x + 2x = 180 - 21 - 41

7x = 180

x =180/7

x=16.857

Therefore,

J = 16.857°

K=4x+21

=4(16.857)+21

= 67.4+21

=88.4°

L=2x +41

=2(16.857)+41

=33.7+41

= 74.7°

Sum of angles in the triangle =

16.857+88.4+74.7=179.9 approximately 180°

The ratio of adults to children at a family reunion is 16 to 10. If there are 91 people at the family reunion, there are
adults and
children.

Answers

Answer:

56 adults and 35 children

Step-by-step explanation:

 

sum the parts of the ratio 16 + 10 = 26

Divide 91 by 26 to find one part of the ratio

91/26 = 3.5 ← 1 part of the ratio

16 parts = 16 × 3.5 = 56 ← number of adults

10 parts = 10 × 3.5 = 35 ← number of children

Therefore it 56 adults and 35 children.

To Check the Answer:  56 + 35 = 91

Choose the point-slope form of the equation below that represents the line that passes through the points (−6, 4) and (2, 0)

Answers

Answer:

B.  y - 4 = - 1/2(x + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given points on the line:

(−6, 4) and (2, 0)

Find the slope:

m = (0 - 4)/(2 - (-6)) = -4/ 8 = -1/2

Point slope form using the first point:

y - 4 = - 1/2(x - (- 6)) ⇒ y - 4 = - 1/2(x + 6)

Correct choice is B

[tex]▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪  {\huge\mathfrak{Answer}}▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪▪[/tex]

The required equation is :

[tex]\boxed{ \boxed{y - 4 = - \dfrac{1}{2} (x + 6)}}[/tex]

[tex] \large \boxed{ \mathfrak{Explanation}}[/tex]

Let's find the slope (m) ~

[tex] \mathrm{\dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} }[/tex]

[tex] \dfrac{4 - 0}{ - 6 - 2} [/tex]

[tex] - \dfrac{4}{8} [/tex]

[tex] - \dfrac{ 1 }{2} [/tex]

now, let's use the slope and the points to write the equation of line in point slope form ~

[tex]y - 4 = - \dfrac{ 1}{2} (x - ( - 6))[/tex]

[tex]y - 4 = - \dfrac{1}{2} (x + 6)[/tex]

Solve for x and y. (Geometry)
Can you also show the steps of how u did it

Answers

Answer:

y = 10

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

From the U theorem the sum of these two angles 120+2x+y = 180

same goes for the bottom part too:

2x-y+140 = 180 now add two equations up

120+2x+y + 2x-y+140 = 180 + 180 add like terms (-y will eliminate +y)

4x + 260 = 360 subtract 260 from both sides

4x = 100 divide both sides by 4

x = 25 since the sum of 2x-y+140 = 180 we can find the value of y by replacing x with 25

2*25 - y + 140 = 180

50 - y + 140 = 180 add like terms

190 - y = 180 subtract 190 from both sides

-y = -10 and y = 10

The figure shows line RS parallel to line UV. The lines are intersected by 2 transversals.
If the measure of angle STV is 108 degrees and the measure of angle RST is 74 degrees, the measure of angle TVU is [blank1] degrees. :|

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of angle TVU is 74 degrees.

What is alternate interior angles?

The alternate interior angles are the angles that are formed inside the two parallel lines, when it is intersected by a transversal, and are equal to its alternate pairs.

What is linear pair angles?

Linear pair of angles are formed when two lines intersect each other at a single point.

According to the given question.

m ∠STV = 108 degrees

And,

m ∠RST = 74 degrees

Since, ∠RTS and ∠STV are linear pair of angles.

Therefore,

m ∠RTS + m ∠STV = 180

⇒ m ∠RTS + 108 = 180

⇒ m ∠RTS = 180 - 108

⇒ m ∠RTS = 72 degrees

Now, in ΔRTS we have

m ∠RTS + m ∠TSR + m ∠SRT = 180  (sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees)

⇒ 72 + 74 + m ∠SRT = 180

⇒ m ∠SRT = 180 -146

⇒ m ∠SRT =  34 degrees

Here, ∠SRT and ∠TVU are alternate interior angles.

Therefore,

m ∠SRT = m ∠TVU

⇒ m ∠TVU = 74 degrees.

Hence, the measure of angle TVU is 74 degrees.
