Answer: 1,600
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The present age of the artifact is 1,600 years
Step-by-step explanation:
let the present age of the artifact = x
let the present age of the book, = y
x = 4y ---- equation (1)
x + 200 = 3(y + 200) ------equation (2)
x + 200 = 3y + 600
substitute in the value of x
4y + 200 = 3y + 600
4y - 3y = 600 - 200
y = 400
Then, x = 4 x 400
x = 1,600 years

Divide each side by 16 x = 3
The intersection of the gaphs of the two equations are at point (-2, 0) and (3, 5) which are the solutions to the system of equations.
The formula for slope is (y-y1)/(x-x1). 1 = x -1 = y -2 = x2 8 = y2 You would plug those into the formula: (-1-(-2))/(-1-8) and that would equal to: 1/(-9).

Answer:
4.
y= 2/3x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
By using the distributive property on the right side of the equation you get 2/3x + 2. Then you add 1 to the right side to cancel out the (-1) on the left.
