The required numbers for the given case are 3 and 7 respectively.

<h3>How to solve a linear equation?</h3>

A linear equation can be solved by equating the LHS and RHS of the equation following some basic rules such as by adding or subtracting the same numbers on both sides and similarly, doing division and multiplication with the same numbers.

As per the given data the problem can be solved as follows,

Suppose the first number be x and the second be y.

Now, the equations can be formed as,

x + 3y = 24             (1)

5x + 3y = 36           (2)

Solve these equations by multiplying equation (1) by 5 and then subtract from (2) as below,

5x + 3y - 5(x + 3y) = 36 - 5 × 24

3y - 15y = -84

=> -12y = -84

=> y = 7

Substitute y = 7 in equation (1) to get,

x + 3 × 7 = 24

=> x = 3

Hence, the numbers for the given problem are 3 and 7 respectively.

The population at Bishop High School is 2000 students in 2011. Every year the population decreases by 50 students
Artemon [7]

Answer:

  • Let p be the population at t be the number of years since 2011.  Then, p=2000-50t
  • The projected population of the high school in 2015=1800
  • In <u>2019</u> the population be 1600 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The population at Bishop High School students in 2011 =2000

Also,  Every year the population decreases by 50 students which implies the rate of decrease in population is constant.

So, the function is a linear function.

Let p be the population at t be the number of years since 2011.

Then, p=2000-50t

So at t=0, p=2000

In year 2015, t=4, substitute t=4 in the above equation ,we get

p=2000-50(4)\\\Rightarrow\ p=2000-200\\\Rightarrow\ p=1800

Hence, the projected population of the high school in 2015=1800

Now, put p=1600 in the function , we get

1600=2000-50t\\\Rightarrow50t=2000-1600\\\Rightarrow50t=400\\\Rightarrow\ t=\frac{400}{50}\\\Rightarrow\ t=8

Now, 2011+8=2019

Hence, in <u>2019</u> the population be 1600 students
