Solve the following 2 problems:

1. Solve for a: 7-1

 

2. Bones discovered on an archeological dig contained only 3% as much Carbon-14 as they would have had when the animal was alive. The formula carbon 14 formula is used for Carbon-14 dating, where y zero = the initial amount of Carbon-14 (or 100%), y = the remaining amount after time, and t = the time it took for the decay to occur. Using this formula, determine how many years ago the animal died (round answer to the nearest thousand years).
