The charge per unit of electricity is #415

The formula for E in terms of N is E = 375 + 40N

<h3>What is variation?</h3>

Variation is a mathematical term that establishes the relationship between quantities and variables in an equation.

Analysis:

E = K + CN

where K and C are constants

When E = 3655, N = 82 and when E = 2055, N = 42

3655 = K + 82C ---------------1

2055 = K + 42C----------------2

subtract equation 2 from 1

40C = 1600

C = 40

substitute C in equation 1

3655 = K + 82(40)

3655 = K + 3280

K = 3655 - 3280 = 375

charge per unit is N = 1

E = 375 + 40(1) = #415

Formula for E in terms of N is E = 375 + 40N

In conclusion, the charge per unit of electricity is 415 and the equation connecting E and N is E = 375 + 40N

A system of equations is given below. y=1/2x-3 and -1/2x-3. Which of the following statements best describes the two lines?
pantera1 [17]

"They have different slopes but the same y-intercept, so they have one solution" is the statement which best describes the two lines.

Answer: Option D

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given equations:

           y=\left(\frac{1}{2} \times x\right)-3

           y=\left(-\frac{1}{2} \times x\right)-3

As we know that the slope intercept form of a line is  

                             y = m x + c  

So, from equation 1 and equation 2 we can see that

              m_{1}=\frac{1}{2} \quad \text { and } c_{1}=-3

              m_{2}=-\frac{1}{2} \text { and } c_{2}=-3

So, from the above expressions, we can say that both lines have different slopes but have same y – intercept with one common solution when x = 0.

Solve each equation by factoring.<br> (x – 7)(2x - 3) = 0
Orlov [11]

Answer:

x = 7 and 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can say:

x - 7 = 0 and 2x - 3 = 0

<em>Lets solve for x - 7 = 0 first:</em>

Add 7 to each side of "="

=> <u>x = 7</u>

<em>Now lets solve for 2x - 3 = 0</em>

First add 3 to each side of "="

=> 2x = 3

Now divide each side by 2

<u>=> x = 3/2</u>

Hope this helps!
