Answer 3

Hello welcome to QuestionCove ;3
I found the equation to be this

N=Noe^-kt

No= initial amount of C-14 (at the time=0)

N= amount of C-14 at time t

t= time in years

k= 0.0001

Using your infromation you may fill this in

Answer 4

Set the initial amount as 1 (as in 100%) then set N to .72 or (72%)
