Hello!
Remember that the symbols: ≤ and ≥ are graphed as a solid line. While the symbols: < and > are graphed as a dotted line.
Also, before graphing, it would be better to convert both equations to slope-intercept form.
y ≤ x + 1 is already in slope-intercept form.
y + x ≤ -1 is not written in slope-intercept form. (Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b)
y + x ≤ - 1 (subtract x from both sides)
y ≤ -x - 1
Graphing those lines, you get the graph below. You can see that Part C best represents the solution set systems of inequalities, because that is where both of the shaded lines intersect.
Answer: Part C
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.
