Erin age = e
Maddie age = m
E= M+3
because Erin = Maddies age + 3 years

Find the point of intersection (if any) of the following pairs of lines: a) x – 2y +1=0 2x + 3y – 7 = 0 b) x-2y+11=0 -x+2y-13 =

pychu [463]

Answer:

a) (11/7, 9/7)

b) There's no point of intersection

Step-by-step explanation:

a) x - 2y + 1 = 0

2x + 3y - 7 = 0

To find the point of intersection, we need to solve the system of equations and the result will be the point of intersection (x,y)

$x-2y+1=0\\x= 2y-1$

Now we substitute x in the second equation:

$2x+3y-7=0\\2(2y-1)+3y-7=0\\4y-2+3y-7=0\\7y-9=0\\y=9/7$

Now we substitute y in our first equation.

$x-2y+1=0\\x-2(9/7)+1=0\\x-18/7+1=0\\x=18/7-1\\x=11/7$ .

The point of intersection is (11/7, 9/7)

b) x -2y +11 =0

-x + 2y - 13 =0

We are going to follow the same procedure:

$x-2y+11=0\\x=2y-11$

$-(2y-11)+2y-13=0\\-2y+11+2y-13=0\\0y=2\\0=2$

Since this system of equations doesn't have a solution, the system has no point of intersection.

The internet was used by 30% of the population of a state in 2008. If 3200 people were surveyed, how many in the survey were usi

andrew-mc [135]

1. We know that 30% expressed as a decimal is 0.30

Since 30% of people were using the internet, 0.30*3200 is our answer.
3200*0.30= 960.

Therefore 960 people were using the internet out of the 3200 surveyed.

Bobby hopes that he will someday be more than 70 inches tall. he is currently 61 inches tall. how many more inches,

Dominik [7]

Bobby should grow an amount greater than 70-61 = 9 inches to become taller than 70 inches. Therefore, the correct answer is that Bobby must grow an amount of x> 9 inches to be taller than 70 inches.
