Explanation Results used: The amount of carbon-14 present after t years is given by the exponential equation A ( t ) = A 0 e k t , with k = − [ ( ln 2 ) / 5600 ] . Calculation: The age of the sample is obtained by comparing the amount of carbon-14 present in the sample. From the given data, A ( t ) = 60 100 A 0 = 6 10 A 0 Substitute the values of A 0 and k in the above result to obtain the value of t . 6 10 A 0 = A 0 e ( − [ ( ln 2 )
