Answer:
C. ⅓ × (8 + 7) + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's translate each statement given to numerals and symbols first:
Twelve => 12
One-third => ⅓
Sum of 8 and 7 => (8 + 7)
Representing this statement altogether will be:
⅓ of (8 + 7) = ⅓ × (8 + 7)
If 13 is added, we would get:
⅓ × (8 + 7) + 12
A general equation of a linear function is expressed as y = mx + b where m represents the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope is the rate of change of y with respect x which is equal to 4 for this problem. The y-intercept represents the value when x is equal to zero. It is the initial value of y. In this case, it is equal to $1,000. The linear equation would be:
y = 4x + 1000
assuming y is the income and x is the consumption.
At an income (y) equal to $20,000, we can calculate for the consumption.
20000 = 4x + 1000
19000 = 4x
x = 4750

Answer:
(x, y) = (-6, 15) and (2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start by subtracting the second equation from the first.
(y) -(y) = (x^2 +2x -9) -(-2x +3)
0 = x^2 +4x -12 . . . . . . collect terms
0 = (x +6)(x -2) . . . . . . . factor
Solutions for x are -6 and +2. These values make the factors zero.
The corresponding solutions for y are ...
y = -2(-6) +3 = 15
y = -2(2) +3 = -1
Solutions to the system of equations are ...
(x, y) = (-6, 15) and (2, -1)
