8.) An archaeologist can determine the approximate age of certain ancient specimens by measuring the amount of carbon-14, a radioactive substance, contained in the specimen. The
เราด
formula used to determine the age of a specimen is A = A,2 where A is the amount of
carbon-14 that a specimen contains, A, is the original amount of carbon-14, t is time, in years,
and 5760 is the half-life of carbon-14. A specimen that originally contained 120 milligrams of
carbon-14 now contains 100 milligrams of this substance. What is the age of the specimen, to
the nearest hundred years?

Prove (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1 and (b) 1 − tanh 2(x) = sech 2(x). solution (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = ex + e−x 2 2 − 2 = e2x + 2 + e−2x 4 − = 4 = . (b) we start with the identity proved in part (a): cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1. if we divide both sides by cosh2(x), we get 1 − sinh2(x) cosh2(x) = 1 or 1 − tanh 2(x) = .
