The left side can be written as a square. We can take the square root, then subtract 1.

... (x +1)² = 17

... x +1 = ±√17

... x = -1 ±√17

Solve using substitution x = 3y + 1 2x + 4y = 12​
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

x = 4

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 3y + 1 (Multiply everything by -2)

2x + 4y = 12​ (Transfer 4y to the right of the = sign)

2x = -4y + 12

-2x = -6y - 2

0 = -10y + 10

-10 = -10y

y = 1

x = 3y + 1

x = 3(1) + 1

x = 3 + 1

x = 4

Which equation represents a population of 250 animals that decreases at an annual rate of 21% ?
victus00 [196]

Answer: Choice C.  p = 250(0.79)^t

Work Shown:

p = a*b^t

p = a*(1+r)^t

p = 250*(1+(-0.21))^t

p = 250(0.79)^t

Note that r = -0.21 is negative to indicate we have exponential decay.

What’s the value of the underlined digit in each number?<br> 0.679<br> 1.556<br> 6.8
Aleks [24]
For the first 6, we see that it is exactly one place behind the decimal point, therefore meaning that it is in the tenths place. The second 6 is three places behind the decimal place making it in the thousandths place. The third and final 6 is one place in front of the decimal, therefore it is in the ones place. Hope this helps!
