There will be 1.078x students next year and equation is number of students in next year = x + 7.8% of x
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given, There are "x" number of students at helms.
The number of students increases by 7.8% each year which means if there "x" number of students in present year, then the number of students in next year will be x + 7.8% of x
Number of students in next year = number of students in present year + increased number of students.
Thus there will be 1.078x students in next year
Divide 17.5 by 0.07

The points have the same x-coordinate, so they lie on a horizontal line. The distance between them is the difference between their y-coordinates.
2.5 - 1.4 = 1.1
The distance between the two points is 1.1
For this case we have an equation of the form:
y = A * (b) ^ t
Where,
A: initial amount
b: decrease rate
t: time in years.
Substituting values we have:
7 = A * (0.5) ^ ((1/20) * t)
For t = 45 years we have:
7 = A * (0.5) ^ ((1/20) * 45)
Clearing A:
A = 7 / ((0.5) ^ ((1/20) * 45))
A = 33.3
Answer:
the density of the substance when it was deposited 45 years ago was:
A = 33.3 milligrams per square centimeter
A system of equations means that both equations need to be true in the same time.
Since y is equal with 3x-7 and 2x+7 then those must be equal with eachother.
3x-7=2x+7
3x-2x=7+7
X=14
Now that we know x use any given equation of y and substitute x with 14
Y=3•14-7=35
Solution: x=14, y=35
