Both of those equations are solved for y. So if the first one is equal to y and the second one is equal to y, then the transitive property says that the first one is equal to the second one. We set them equal to each other and solve for x. 4x-5=-3 and 4x = 2. That means that x = 1/2. We were already told that y = -3, so the coordinates for the solution to that system are (1/2, -3), B from above.
Answer to the 1st question: 8 years
Answer to the 2nd question: The year 2022
=======================================================
Further explanation:
x = number of years after 2008
y = average price of a new car
The prices are going up by $1250 per year on average. This is the slope because the slope is the rate of change. So m = 1250.
The y intercept is b = 30100 as this is the price in 2008.
This leads us to go from y = mx+b to y = 1250x+30100
Plug in x = 0 and you should get y = 30100.
Also, plugging x = 6 into the equation leads to y = 37600 to help confirm things.
-----------------
Next, we plug in y = 47600 and solve for x.
y = 1250x+30100
47600 = 1250x+30100
47600-30100 = 1250x
17500 = 1250x
1250x = 17500
x = 17500/1250
x = 14
This means 14 years after the year 2008 is when the average new car price will be $47,600.
2008+14 = 2022
2022-2014 = 8
Therefore, <u>8 years</u> after 2014 (aka the <u>the year 2022</u>) is when the new car average price will be $47,600.
D and E is the answer. C is exactly 108 and not greater than
Answer:
The red one/bottom one. x>-8
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 7 giving you 16. Divide by negative 2 which gives you -8, but since your dividing by a negative you have to flip the sign. The Answer is x>-8. The Sign points which way you have to shade, the answer is which point you shade at, and the opened circle means that it is NOT equal to that answer but it is bigger. Closed circle if it is equal to. ;)
