Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 20 = 4
add 20 to both sides
3x - 20 + 20 = 4 + 20
3x = 24
divide both sides by 3
= 
x = 8
This is a relatively simple half life calculation.
To go from 6 to 3 grams, 1622 years is required.
3 to 1.5 grams another 1622 years is required.
So, it undergoes exactly 2 half-lives or 3,244 years.

Answer:
y =
x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, - 1) ← coordinates of intercepts
m =
=
= 
The y- intercept is - 1 ⇒ c = - 1
y =
x - 1
