The half life for the decay of carbon-14 is 5.73 times 10^3 years. Suppose the activity due to the radioactive decay of the carbon-14 in a tiny sample of an artifact made of wood from an archeological dig is measured to be 77.The activity in a similar-sized sample of fresh wood is measured to be 85.Calculate the age of the artifact. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Lab reagent, hypothesis test. a reference solution used as a lab reagent is purported to have a concentration of 5 mg/dl. six samples are taken from this solution and the following concentrations are recorded: (5.32, 4.88, 5.10, 4.73, 5.15, 4.75) mg/dl. these six measurements are assumed to be an srs of all possible measurements from solution. they are also assumed to have a standard deviation of 0.2, a normal distributin, and a mean concentration equal to the true concentration of the solution. carry out a significance test to determine whether these six measurements provide reliable evidence that the true concentration of the solution is actually not 5 mg/dl.
