Between the years of 1947 and 1956, earthenware jars containing what are known as the Dead Sea Scrolls were found in caves along the coast of Jerusalem in the Dead Sea. Upon radiometric testing, it was found that the scrolls were wrapped in material that contained about 79 percent of the original carbon-14. Archaeologists estimated that the scrolls are about 1,900 years old. Are they right? Using the half-life of carbon-14 (5,730 years), prove or disprove this estimate age. Describe how you are testing this hypothesis.

Abucket of paint has spilled on a tile floor. the paint flow can be expressed with the function p(t) = 6(t), where t represents time in minutes and p represents how far the paint is spreading. the flowing paint is creating a circular pattern on the tile. the area of the pattern can be expressed as a(p) = 3.14(p)^2 part a: find the area of the circle of spilled paint as a function of time, or a[p(t)]. show your work. part b: how large is the area of spilled paint after 8 minutes? you may use 3.14 to approximate pi in this problem.
