ICarbon-14 has a half-life of 5720 years and this is a first-order reaction. If a piece of wood has converted 75% of the carbon-14, then how old is it?n is as follows: A + 2B->ProductsA + 2B->Products For every mole of A that is used, 2 moles of B are used so the rate of disappearance of B is twice the rate of the disappearance of A. This may be expressed as: Rate =-\delta [B]\delta t = -2[A]\delta tRate =-\delta [B]\delta t = -2[A]\delta t Apply this information to the following scenarios: N2(g) + 3H2 (g)->2NH3(g)

Problem 4 (20 points). If we know that the linear optimization (LO) problem min $2x_1 + x_2$ s. t. $2x_1 + x_3 - 2x_4 = 3$, $x_2 + 2x_3 + 3x_4 = 5$, $x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4 \ge 0$, has an optimal value 1, what can we say about the following LO problem? Please provide as much information on the optimal value and solutions as possible. max $3y_1 + 4y_2$ s.t. $y_1 - 2y_2 = 3$, $2y_1 + 3y_2 = 5$, $y_1, y_2 \ge 0$.

6.3.9 Evaluate a solution Tristan attempts the following physics problem: Two blocks with masses $m_1$ and $m_2$ are connected by a light string over a frictionless pulley as shown in the diagram. Find the acceleration of this system. Assume there is no friction between the table and $m_1$. Tristan comes up with the following solution: $a = \frac{m_2}{m_1}g$. Is Tristan's solution correct or not? Use two distinct special case/limiting/known cases to help Tristan figure out if his solution is correct or incorrect. Read and Interrogate: Read Appendix G if you need help. Focus on the limiting/special cases section.

The study of 'happiness' and well-being is becoming popular in both economics and social science as an alternative to GDP as a measure of countries' standard of living. In an attempt to analyze the possible connection (if any) between happiness and economic variables, we have obtained survey data measuring people's happiness levels. The data below show the percentage of respondents from various countries stating they were 'very happy'. We have included GDP per capita ($) and CPI as economic variables.
