Answer: 4, 1

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Let the First Number be ‘x’
Let the Second Number be ‘y’

Framing 2 Equations :-

=> 3x + 2y = 14 (Eq. 1)
=> 2x - y = 7 (Eq. 2)

Multiplying Eq. 2 by 2 :-

=> 4x - 2y = 14 (Eq. 3)

Adding Eq. 1 and Eq. 3 we get :-

7x = 14 + 14
7x = 28
x = 28/7
=> x = 4

Therefore, x = 4

Substitute value of ‘x’ in Eq. 1 :-

3x + 2y = 14
3(4) + 2y = 14
12 + 2y = 14
2y = 14 - 12
2y = 2
y = 2/2
=> y = 1

Therefore, y = 1

Hence,
First Number = 4
Second Number = 1

I don’t get 15a. The t^5 is confusing me
kondor19780726 [428]

15a is non-exponential because the variable is not in the exponent

Instead, this is a polynomial function. It can also be called a power function as power functions are in the form a*x^b where 'a' and 'b' are fixed numbers.

What is the best way to display data if there is a wide range and we want to see individual data?
Novosadov [1.4K]
Answer:
The correct option is;
b. Stem and leaf plot

Step-by-step explanation:
A stem-and-leaf plot shows the data shape and the densities of the different classes in a graphical form such that the information in the data such as the data characteristics are self displayed by the data numbers arranged in the stem-and-leaf plot. The stem-and-leaf plot keeps the raw numerical data, in the form they were obtained and by their arrangement, outliers are easily spotted.
