- A picture supposedly painted by Vermeer (1632–1675) contains 98.4% of its carbon-14 (half-life 5730 years). From this information decide whether the picture is a fake. Explain your reasoning.Round your answer to two decimal places.arrow_forwardPrices of diamonds are determined by what is known as the 4 Cs: cut, clarity, color, and carat weight. The prices of diamonds go up as the carat weight increases, but the increase is not smooth. For example, the difference between the size of a 0.99-carat diamond and a 1-carat diamond is undetectable to the naked human eye, but the price of a 1-carat diamond tends to be much higher than the price of a 0.99 diamond. In this question, we use two random samples of diamonds, 0.99 carats and 1 carat, each sample of size 23, and compare the average prices of the diamonds. In order to be able to compare equivalent units, we first divide the price for each diamond by 100 times its weight in carats. That is, for a 0.99-carat diamond, we divide the price by 99. For a 1 carat diamond, we divide the price by 100. The distributions and some sample statistics are shown below I have attached the questions and the chart in the images section. Thank youarrow_forwardA fish population starts at 15000. The (annual) birth rate is 0.4; the (annual) death rate is 0.3. In addition, 1500 fish are stocked each year, and 2000 are caught and removed from the population each year. Determine the size of the population after 1 year and 2 years Answer to the nearest 1.arrow_forward
