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

Your process is close!

Since 3/10 and 4/15 is the amount you missed you have to subtract that by 1.

1 - 0.3 = 0.70
1 - 0.26 = 0.74

So, you scored higher on the math quiz.

Hope this helps!

Samantha works at an animal shelter. She decides to track the total number of kittens that are brought in. The
Softa [21]

Answer:

  C) The domain represents the weeks that have passed since Samantha started counting the kittens. The domain is all whole numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells you the independent variable w represents weeks that have passed. "Domain" refers to values the independent variable may have, so choices A or B make no sense here.

Time is measured continuously, and fractions of a week are possible. So, the domain could be <em>non-negative real numbers</em>. However, the answer choice D is "<em>all</em> real numbers", which includes negative numbers for which the function makes no sense.

The domain "all whole numbers" includes non-negative integers. It is reasonable to restrict the domain to non-negative integer numbers of weeks, so answer choice C is the best option.
