Josiah's reform aimed to strengthen the worship of Yahweh and eliminate idolatrous practices. Therefore, reducing the worship of Yahweh to a very low state is not consistent with Josiah's reform.

Explanation

(a)(i) R is the required region.

(iii) Coordinates of the point of intersection of the two graphs = (1.1, 3.8)

(b) Assuming \(y - \frac{3x}{4} = 3\)

If x = 0, \(y - \frac{3}{4}(0) = 3 \implies y = 3\)

If y = 0, \(0 - \frac{3}{4}x = 3 \implies -3x = 12 ; x = - 4\)

Assuming \(y + 2x = 6\)

If x = 0, \(y + 2(0) = 6 \implies y = 6\)

If y = 0, \(0 + 2x = 6 \implies 2x = 6 ; x = 3\)

(b) \((x + 2)(x + c) = x^{2} + 2x + cx + 2c\)

\(x^{2} + (2 + c)x + 2c = x^{2} + bx + 18\)

\( 2c = 18 ; c = 9\)

\(b = 2 + c = 2 + 9 = 11\)

(b, c) = (11, 9).
