Step-by-step explanation:

The above variation is written as

y = kx²

where k is the constant of variation

when y = 20 and x = 1

we have

20 = k(1)²

k = 20

So the formula for the variation is

y = 20x²

when x is doubled that's x = 2

y = 20(2)²

y = 20(4)

when y = 80

We have

80 = 20x

Divide both sides by 20

Hope this helps you

Answer:

77 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 inch = 3 miles in map

We are also given the actual distance between City A and City B = 231 miles.

In order to get the distance in inches = Distance between City A and City B in miles/ 3

We are dividing the distance by 3 to get the distance in inches.

So,

Distance on map = 231/3

= 77 inches

Jake bought 2 shirts and 1 pair of pants for $6. Mike bought 1 shirt and 1 pair of pants for $4. How much is each shirt and each

EastWind [94]

The cost of a shirt and a pair of pants is the same and is equal to $2. The correct option is B.

<h3>What is a solution to a system of equations?</h3>

For a solution to be the solution to a system, it must satisfy all the equations of that system, and as all points satisfying an equation are in their graphs, so solution to a system is the intersection of all its equation at a single point(as we need a common point, which is going to be the intersection of course)(this can be one or many, or sometimes none)

Let x represent the cost of a shirt, while y represent the cost of a pair of pants.

Given that Jake bought 2 shirts and 1 pair of pants for $6. Therefore, the equation that represents this situation is,

2x + y = 6 ..... equation 1

Also, Mike bought 1 shirt and 1 pair of pants for $4. Therefore, the equation that represents this situation is,

x + y = 4

Solve the equation for x,

x = 4 - y

Substitute the value of x in equation 1,

2x + y = 6

2(4 - y) + y = 6

8 - 2y + y = 6

-y = 6 - 8

-y = -2

y = 2

Substitute the value of y in equation 1,

2x + y = 6

2x + 2 = 6

2x = 6 - 2

2x = 4

x = 4/2

x = 2

Hence, the cost of a shirt and a pair of pants is the same and is equal to $2.

Discussion for Applications of Linear Systems

Lostsunrise [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are certain methods for solving a system of equations. Some of which are:

Substitution Method
Elimination Method
Graphing Method

<em>Substitution Method</em>

Substitution method to solve a system of equations is suitable if a variable of a any equation seems isolated or could comfortably be isolated without any ration/fraction resulting.

For example, for the following system of equations

x - 2y = 11....[A]

x = 5 - y....[B]

substituting the value of x = 5 - y from equation [B] into equation [A], so that

(5 - y) - 2y = 11

5 - y - 2y = 11

3y = -6

y = -2

<em>Elimination Method</em>

Elimination method to solve a system of equations is suitable if both equation are in standard form, and just adding or subtracting the equations to determine an equation in one variable.

For example, for the following system of equations

2x + 7y = -5....[C]

5x - 7y = 12....[D]

Adding Equation [C] and Equation [D].

7x + 0 = 7

x = 1

<em>Graphing Method</em>

Sometimes graphing method may be used to solve the system of the equation and visualize the solution.

For example,

y = -2....[E]

y = 3x + 1....[F]

The solution for this system of equation is the point of intersection of both the lines, which is shown in attached figure. The point of intersection is (-1, -2).

Hence, the solution of this system of equations is (-1, -2), as shown in attached figure.
