Answer:

first we get y on one side by itself.

4x+5y=5

we'll move x to the other side.

4x-4x+5y=5-4x

simplify.

5y=5-4x

now we get rid of the coefficient on y.

5y/5=(5-4x)/5

simplify.

y=5/5-4x/5

y=1- $\frac{4}{5}x$

The answer is $y=1-\frac{4}{5}x$

First, i put the equation in y=mx+b by dividing 2, since its 2y. since it’s perpendicular we’re talking about you switch the sides (opposite reciprocals). the rest should be self explanatory.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that $\angle AHB=90^{\circ}$ , and thus by the exterior angle theorem,

$90^{\circ}+\alpha=4\alpha\\\\90=3\alpha\\\\\alpha=30^{\circ}$

Thus, $\angle CAB=2\theta=\boxed{60^{\circ}}$

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:

$A(t) = A(0)e^{-rt}$

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.

$A(t) = A(0)e^{-rt}$

$0.5A(0) = A(0)e^{-5730r}$

$e^{-5730r} = 0.5$

$\ln{e^{-5730r}} = \ln{0.5}$

$5730r = -\ln{0.5}$

$r = -\frac{\ln{0.5}}{5730}$

$r = 0.00012096809$

Hence, the equation is:

$A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.00012096809t}$

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).

$A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.00012096809t}$

$0.8A(0) = A(0)e^{-0.00012096809t}$

$e^{-0.00012096809t} = 0.8$

$\ln{e^{-0.00012096809t}} = \ln{0.8}$

$-0.00012096809t = \ln{0.8}$

$t = -\frac{\ln{0.8}}{0.00012096809}$

$t = 1845$

The Tequesta settlement is 1845 years old.
