A bone has 20% of its original C-14.

Half-life = 5730 years.

How old is the bone? 

t≈13304.3

0.20=(12)t/5730

To solve for the exponent, we can take the natural logarithm of both sides:

ln(0.20)=ln[(12)t/5730]

Using the power rule for logarithms, we get:

ln(0.20)=t/5730ln(0.5)



t=ln(0.20)ln(0.5)×5730
t=-1.6094-0.6931×5730
t≈2.3219×5730
t≈13304.3
