The isotope known as carbon-14 is radioactive and will decay into the stable form nitrogen-14. As long as an organism is alive, it ingests air, and the level of carbon-14 in the organism remains the same. When it dies, it no longer absorbs carbon-14 from the air, and the carbon-14 in the organism decays.
The half-life of carbon-14 is 5770 years. Assume an organic sample is 15,000 years old.
Determine how many half-lives are in 15,000 years. Then use this answer to determine what percentage of the original amount of carbon-14 remains after 15,000 years. Round your answer as a percentage to the nearest whole number.

Unaware that 35% of the 10000 voters in his constituency support him, a politician decides to estimate his political strength. a sample of 200 voters shows that 40% support him. a. what is the population? b. what is the parameter of interest? state its value c. what is the statistics of the interest? state its value d. compare your answers in (b) and (c) is it surprising they are different? if the politician were to sample another 200 voters, which of the two numbers would most likely change? explain
