To solve for y, isolate the variable to one side.
9x+3y=4
-9x -9x
~~~~~~~~
3y= -9x+4
~~~~~~~~
3y= -9x+4 (Divide both sides by 3)
y=-3x+4
Answer:
Try to use your calculator and just substitute values
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Using processing software (Excel) or even a decent scientific calculator. You input the values and generate the best fit cubic equation.
For number 1, the equation is
y = 8x10</span>⁻⁵ x³ - 0.0097 x² + 0.374 x + 1.083
where x is the number of years since 1900
y is the pounds cheese consumed
For number 2, the equation is
y = -3x10⁻⁵ x³ + 0.0028 x² + 0.2155 x + 1.7736
For number 3
P(-1) = 18
D 32 miles to the gallon
976 divided by 30.5 equals 32
The only one that wouldn’t change the y-value is a reflection across the y-axis.
