X = 1st job
y = 2nd job

x + y = 22......x = 22 - y
7x + 8.25y = 171.50

7(22 - y ) + 8.25y = 171.50
154 - 7y + 8.25y = 171.50
-7y + 8.25y = 171.50 - 154
1.25y = 17.50
y = 17.50 / 1.25
y = 14 <== 14 hrs at the 8.25 per hr job

x + y = 22
x + 14 = 22
x = 22 - 14
x = 8 <=== 8 hrs at the 7 per hr job

Costs of Attendance
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

y = 3,224x + 750

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the scholarship and grants are applied using the slope intercept form y=mx+b where m is the slope in this case the cost per year attending x the number of years attended and b the y intercept which in this case is the one time fee subtracting 13,774 by 10,550 gives us 3,224.

Since the one time fee is only in place once that would make it the y intercept therefore y=3,224x+750 is the correct answer

Ivanshal [37]
Hello :
<span>the parabola's equation is : f(x) = a(x+3)²-1
</span><span>the coefficient of the squared expression in the parabola's equation is : a
but ; f(4) = 0
0 = a(4+3)²-1
49a-1=0.....a=1/49
