Carbon dating of small bits of charcoal used in cave paintings has determined some of the paintings are from 10,000 to 30,000 years old. Carbon 14 has a half life of 5730 years. In a 1-μg sample of carbon from a living tree, the activity of carbon-14 is 6.4 6.4 μCi. If researchers determined that 1 μg of charcoal from a prehistoric cave painting in France has an activity of 0.80 μCi, what is the age of the painting?
