Using a system of equations, it is found that Peter had $48 at first.

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

A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are:

  • Variable x: Peter's money.
  • Variable y: Henry's money.

The ratio of peters money to henrys money is 4 : 3, hence:

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{4}{3}

After Peter spent $12, they had the same amount, hence:

y = x - 12.

Then, replacing in the ratio:

\frac{x}{y} = \frac{4}{3}

\frac{x}{x - 12} = \frac{4}{3}

4(x - 12) = 3x

x = 48.

The graph shows the data points in the table and the exponential regression model associated with the data ?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Option: A is the correct answer.

         The number of weeds is decreasing by a multiplicative rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Clear;y from the scatter plot we could observe that with the increasing value of one variable the other variable is decreasing.

Hence, The number of weeds is decreasing.

Also as we could see that the line of best fit is a curve and not a line Hence, the number of weeds are not decreasing by a additive rate  ( since the rate or a slope of a line is constant) it is decreasing by a multiplicative rate.

<em>Based on the graph of a regression model:</em>

<em>Option: A is correct.</em>
