A skull believed to belong to an ancient human being has a carbon-14 decay rate of 4.50

Question:

A skull believed to belong to an ancient human being has a carbon-14 decay rate of 4.50 disintegrations per minute per gram of carbon (4.50 dis/min · g C). If living organisms have a decay rate of 15.3 dis/min · g C, how old is the skull? (The decay rate is directly proportional to the amount of carbon-14 present.)SORT You are given the current rate of decay for the skull and the assumed initial rate. You are asked to

Use the value of the rate constant and the initial and current rates to find t from the integrated rate law
