Chapter 1, Problem 336RE

For the following problems, consider radioactive dating. A human skeleton is found in ail archeological dig. Carbon dating is implemented to determine how old the skeleton is by using the equation y = e r t , where y is the percentage of radiocarbon still present in the material, t is the number of years passed, and r = -0.0001210 is the decay rate of radiocarbon.

336. Find the inverse of the carbon-dating equation. What does it mean? If there is 25% radiocarbon, how old is the skeleton?
