How do you solve this system of linear equation by substitution x-3y=-12y=2x+9

Mathematics

Ainat [17]3 years ago

Finding x:
If y=2x+9, substitute y into the equation x-3y=-12.
You will get:  x-3(2x+9)=-12
Now, distribute:  x-6x-27=-12
Add like terms:  -5x-27=-12
Add 27 to both sides:  -5x=15
Divide both sides by -5:  x=-3

Now, substitute this value of x into the equation to find y:  y=2(-3)+9
Multiply:  y=-6+9
Add:  y=3

Here is the solution:  (x,y)=(-3,3)

Hope this explanation helped!

One estimate of the population of the world on January 1, 2005, is
inn [45]

Answer:

8,566,379,470 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start simple.  In order to find the population increase on January 1, 2006, we need to multiply 6,486,915,022 by 1.4% and add it to 6,486,915,022.

  1. 6,486,915,022*1.4% = 90,816,810.308
  2. 90,816,810.308+6,486,915,022 = 6,577,731,832.31 people on January 2006.

Note that the above two steps gives the same answer as 6,486,915,022*1.014.

So we need to do this for each year.  20 years pass between 1/1/2005 and 1/1/2025.  

We need to do 6,486,915,022*1.014*1.014*1.014... 20 times.

This is equivalent to 6,486,915,022*1.014^{20}.

Multiplying it out gives us 8566379470.2 = 8,566,379,470 people.
