Kate is 39 years old. Let's break it down. Let's call Kate's age K. Kate's age 13 years ago is K - 13, and her age 13 years from now is K + 13. Her age 13 years ago is half of what it will be in 13 years. The equation that says that is K - 13 = (K + 13) divided by 2. Turn the crank and out pops the answer. K - 13 = (K + 13) divided by 2 [Multiply both sides by 2] 2(K - 13) = K + 13 [Apply the distributive property of multiplication] 2K - 26 = K + 13 [Subtract K from both sides] K - 26 = 13 [Add 26 to both sides] K = 39 Check work. The 39 - 13 = 26, and the 39 + 13 = 52. The 26 is half of 52. We're good.

What fraction of the original c14 would you expect to be present in a fossil that is twenty eight thousand six hundred and fifty years old?
The half-life of C14 is 5730 years so the given period is 5 half-lives. You should, therefore, expect approx 2-5 = 0.03125 of the original C14 to remain.
How many years in a half a century?
Since a century is 100 years, half a century would be 50. So, the answer is 50 years.

How long is the half life of radioactive water?
The half-life of radioactive water depends on the specific isotope present in the water. Common radioactive isotopes found in water include tritium and carbon-14, which have half-lives of about 12.3 years and 5,730 years, respectively.
In NCIS why didn't Abby like Ziva?
because she was close to kate and then ziva was kates replacment...and Ziva's half brother Ari killed kate
How much of 8-gram sample of Hydrogen-3 would still be present after 12.3 years if the half life of a H-3 is 12.3 years?
If 12.3 years is the half-life of Tritium (H-3), then @ 12.3 years only half of the tritium should remain or 4 grams.
How long would it take a radioactive isotope to decay if it has a half life of 10 years?
It would take 10 years for half of the radioactive isotope to decay, and another 10 years for half of the remaining amount to decay, and so on. The process continues until the isotope has decayed to a negligible amount, which typically takes around 5 half-lives, or 50 years in this case.
When was The Later Half of Day created?
The Later Half of Day was created in 2008.

When A carbon-14 sample starts with 100 atoms and 5730 years later there are 50 atoms. What is the half-life of carbon-14?
The half-life of carbon-14 is 5 730 years.
What age was he when he was young?
I presume you ask about Jesus. He was about 30 years old when he began to preach and heal, and he died on the cross about three and a half years later.
In 1.2 years half of 64 mg of radioactive isotopes decays. The amount present after 6 years is?
After 1.2 years, half of the 64 mg of radioactive isotopes decays, leaving 32 mg. After 6 years, another half-life period of 1.2 years occurs five times, with each decay halving the remaining amount. Therefore, after 6 years, the amount present will be (64 \text{ mg} \times \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^5 = 1 \text{ mg}).
A potassium 40 sample starts with 50 atoms and 1.25 billion years later there are 25 atoms What is the half life of potassium 40?
1.25 billion years: 25/50 or half the original atoms have disintegrated in 1.25 billion years, and that is the definition of half life.
Who gave Ryan sheckler his first board?
his first board wasnt really his... he found his dad's old-school skateboard when he was 18 months and he rolled in it. He took it with him anywere he went for the next 3 years ... later on at he got his own skateboard as Christmas present at around 4/half years. hope this helps :D
