Answer:

As time increases, C-15 (Carbon) decreases. During radioactive decay, the amount of Carbon in a substance undergoes half-lives (A sample could have  a half life of 1002 years, for example.) When that substance ages to that timeframe, it loses half of its mass. Then for the next half-life, it loses half of that new mass, and so on.
