12a^-4 * b^-3
a= 2 and b = -1
Can you put 2 where it says a and -1 where it says b
<span>Given:
Say 6Q = 6 quarters in a jar
2Q is added everyday
After X days, Amount of quarters = 6Q + (2Q * X)
So answer would be: D) which is y = 2x + 6</span>
If you graph y=7x-9 and y=3x-1 the two lines will intersect at one point. That is how you graphically "solve" the system of equations.
Both of these lines are of the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
So for y=7x-9, the slope is 7 and the y-intercept is -9
For y=3x-1, the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is -1
....
The solution for this system occurs when both coordinates are equal to each other so we can say:
7x-9=3x-1 subtract 3x from both sides
4x-9=-1 add 9 to both sides
4x=8 divide both sides by 4
x=2, making y=3x-1 become:
y=3(2)-1=6-1=5, so the solution to the system of equations is:
(2,5)
Using linear functions, we have that:
A.
For Company A: 
For Company B: 
B. The salaries will be the same after 7 years.
A linear function is given by:

In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the initial value.
Item a:
- For Company A, the salary starts at $31,000, with a raise of $3,000 each year. Thus,
, and the salary after n years is given by:

- For Company B, the salary starts at $38,000, with a raise of $2,000 each year. Thus,
, and the salary after n years is given by:

Item b:
- They will be the same after n years, for which:

Then




The salaries will be the same after 7 years.
