A(t) is the amount of carbon-14 present as a function of time (t):
A(t) = 16e-0.000121t
For t = 7367 years:
A(t=7367) = 16e-0.000121*7367
A(t) = 16e-0.891407
A(t) = 6.561254
A(t) ≈ 7grams

please give the correct answer An artifact originally had 16 grams of carbon-14 present. The decay model A - 16€ -0.000121 describes the amount of carbon-14 present after tyears. Use the model to determine how many grams of carbon-14 will be present in 8185 years. The amount of carbon-14 present in 8185 years will be approximately grams. (Round to the nearest whole number)
9. [-14 Points] DETAILS SPRECALC7 4.6.017. This exercise uses the radioactive decay model. The half-life of radium-226 is 1600 years. Suppose we have a 28-mg sample. (a) Find a function m(t) = moz-th that models the mass remaining after t years. m(t) = (b) Find a function m(t) = moet that models the mass remaining after t years. (Round your value to six decimal places.) m(L) = (c) How much of the sample will remain after 2500 years? (Round your...
Modeling Exponential Growth and Decay Madeleine Younes A wooden artifact from an archaeological dig contains 76 percent of the carbon-14 that is present in living trees. To the nearest year, about how many years old is the artifact? (HINT: The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years.) The artifact is approximately years old.

Please answer the following questions using exponential and logarithmic models. 4) A wooden artifact from an archaeological dig contains 70 percent of the Carbon-14 that is present in living trees. To the nearest year, about how many years old is the artifact? (The half-life of Carbon-14 is 5730 years.) In years 5) A tumor is injected with 0.5 grams of Iodine-125, which has a decay rate of 1.15% per day. Write an exponential model representing the amount of Iodine-125 remaining...
The amount of carbon 14 remaining in a sample that originally contained A grams is given by C(t) = A(0.999879)t where t is time in years. If tests on a fossilized skull reveal that 99.89% of the carbon 14 has decayed, how old, to the nearest 1,000 years, is the skull? HINT [See Example 4.] _____ yr

1) Carbon-14 is formed as the decay product of Nitrogen-15, which was formed when a cosmic ray bombards the N-15. What is the particle equivalent of the cosmic ray involved in this decay process? 2) Carbon-14 get locked in organic material through this process. 3) How many half-lives of Carbon-14 decay will leave behind approximately 1/8 of the original mass of Carbon-14? 4) Using the equation for radioactive decay, if you start with one gram of radioactive substance that has...
The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years. How long does it take for 3.6 grams of carbon-14 to be reduced to 1.3 grams of carbon-14 by radioactive decay? years (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest hundredth as needed.)
