The percentage change in temperature is approximately: -32.5%.

<h3>What is Percentage Change?</h3>

Percentage change = (final value - initial value)/initial value × 100.

Given the following:

Initial temperature = 77 degrees
Final temperature = 52 degrees

Percentage change = (52 - 77)/77 × 100

Percentage change ≈ -32.5%.

Can someone please help me with this question?

(0, 9) represents the y-intercept of the graph.

Since the slope is 1/3, this means that y will rise 1 for every 3 that x runs.

The points that can be used to make a line in this graph are (3, 10) and (6, 11).

I would estimate around 6 because say it was 6.5 and 3 then it would around the square root of like 31 and that is rounding down a lot so we would bump it up to somewhenre around 35 so the side would be around 5.8-6

How many Solutions does this system have? (1 point)

mixas84 [53]

The given system of equation that is $2x+y=3$ and $6x=9-3y$ has infinite number of solutions.

Option -C.

<u>Solution:</u>

Need to determine number of solution given system of equation has.

$\begin{array}{l}{2 x+y=3} \\\\ {6 x=9-3 y}\end{array}$

Let us first bring the equation in standard form for comparison

$\begin{array}{l}{2 x+y-3=0} \\\\ {6 x+3 y-9=0}\end{array}$

$\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}} \neq \frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}$

To check how many solutions are there for system of equations $a_{1} x+b_{1} y+c_{1}=0 \text{ and }a_{2} x+b_{2} y+c_{2}=0$ , we need to compare ratios of $\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}, \frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}} \text { and } \frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}$

In our case,

$a_{1} = 2, b_{1}= 1\text{ and }c_{1}= -3$

$a_{2} = 6, b_{2} = 3,\text{ and }c_{2} = -9$

$\begin{array}{l}{\Rightarrow \frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}} \\\\ {\Rightarrow \frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}}=\frac{1}{3}} \\\\ {\Rightarrow \frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}=\frac{-3}{-9}=\frac{1}{3}} \\\\ {\Rightarrow \frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}}=\frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}=\frac{1}{3}}\end{array}$

As $\frac{a_{1}}{a_{2}}=\frac{b_{1}}{b_{2}}=\frac{c_{1}}{c_{2}}$ , so given system of equations have infinite number of solutions.

Hence, we can conclude that system has infinite number of solutions.
