Based on the given mathematical statement, it can be rewritten into a mathematical equation to simplify and to be solved easily. The statement, "When one is subtracted from three-tenths of a number" corresponds to the equation, 3x/10 - 1, that is assuming the number is represented by the variable x. This is equal to one-fifth of the number. In other words,
3x/10 - 1 = x/5
x = 10
<span>Multiply equation(2) with 4 so that coefficient of become same in both the equations(You can make coefficient of y same and can follow the following procedure.)
</span><span>* Subtract (3) from (1)
* </span>Divide both sides by -19
*Subtract 21 from both sides.
*Divide both sides by 4
so the solution is x= 3 and y= -7
Hope I helped you :)

Using an exponential function, it is found that the Tequesta settlement is 1845 years old.
<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>
The exponential equation for a decaying amount of a substance is given by:

In which:
- A(0) is the initial value.
- r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
Researching on the internet, the half-life of carbon 14 is of 5,730 years, hence A(5730) = 0.5A(0), which we use to find r.







Hence, the equation is:

The wood chips were found to contain 80% of the atmospheric carbon-14, hence we have to find t for which A(t) = 0.8A(0).







The Tequesta settlement is 1845 years old.
