A team of scientists found a wooly mammoth under the ice in Siberia and decided to use C-14 dating to determine how long ago it lived. The initial activity of C-14 is 17.5 disintegrations/min/g of carbon. Currently, the decay rate is 2.68 disintegrations/min/g of carbon. The 1/2 life of C-14 is 5730 years. How long ago did the mammoth live? yrs
