The thickness of ice y in the Gladstone Glacier was 450 foet in 1990. By 2005, the thickness had shrunk to 400 foet. Let x be the elapsed number of years since 1990. Write a linear function that models this data. Then use the function to find the given value. (Simplify your answer and round to TWO decimal places, including zeros as needed. Example: 2 should be written as 2.00. Do not include comm Estimate the year when the Gladstone Glacier will be 350 feet thick. (Round your answer to TWO decimal places, including zeros as needed. Example: 2 should be written as 2.00. Do not include commas.)
