- What are the correct answers and why?arrow_forwardI want question 3 answered, question 2 is background info.arrow_forwardI need to know the number of years! There is only one part to this question. The pictures show the "Figure" and "Bar charts" tabs and the "Graph" tab says this: A curve showing the percentage of radioactive atoms remaining in a mineral sample is graphed on a coordinate plane. The horizontal axis, labeled "Age in half-lives," ranges from 0 to 6. The vertical axis, labeled "Percentage remaining," ranges from 0 to 100. The curve enters the viewing field with a negative slope at (0, 100). The magnitude of the negative slope is progressively reduced such that it is nearly horizontal as it exits the viewing field at (6, 0.02). Thank you!!arrow_forward
