Answer:
not a function
Step-by-step explanation:
if any of the x values are the same then it isn't a function
Answer:
1/3 is 33.33%
1299.99 x 33.33 =433.286
1299.99 - 433.286= 866.704
Step-by-step explanation:
$866.704 is what she paid
Discount was $433.286
Cramer's rule works as follows:
x+3y=16
3x+y=8
Then
x=Dx/D
y=Dy/D
where Dx,Dy,D are 2x2 matrices formed from of coefficients and right hand side.
D=
1 3
3 1
=1-9=-8
Dx=matrix D with first column replaced by the vector [16,8]=
16,3
8 1
=16-24
=-8
Dy=matrix D with second column replaced by the vector [16,8]=
1 16
3 8
=8-48
=-40
Therefore
x=-8/-8=1
y=--40/-8=5
Check:
x+3y=1+3(5)=16
3x+y=3(1)+5=8 ok.
