The coefficients of x are already opposites, so you can simply add the two equations to eliminate x.

... (-7x +3y) + (7x -2y) = (14) + (-14)

... y = 0 . . . . . . . simplify

... -7x + 3·0 = 14 . . . . substitute the value of x into the first equation

.. x = 14/(-7) = -2

The solution is (x, y) = (-2, 0).

According to the scatterplot below, which statement is correct?

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

Hey there

Step-by-step explanation:

The input, or independent variable, is years in operation.

Step-by-step explanation:

In an ordered pair (x, y), the independent variable or input is x and y is the dependent variable or the output.

Therefore, the values on x-axis determine the results or output on y-axis.

The ordered pairs (x, y) are:

(1, 11) ⇒ there are 11 enrollees on Year 1

(2, 33) ⇒ there are 33 enrollees on Year 2

(3, 39) ⇒ there are 39 enrollees on Year 3

(4, 58) ⇒ there are 58 enrollees on Year 4

(5, 85) ⇒ there are 85 enrollees on Year 5

Where:

x are values on the x-axis that refers to number of years in operation

y are values on the y-axis that refers to the corresponding numbers of enrollees for each year.

Even without the graph, the correct statements i:

The input, or independent variable, is years in operation.

A line with a slope of – 5 passes through the points (3,n) and (4, – 5). What is the value of n?

masha68 [24]

Answer:

n = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = y2-y1/x2-x1

-5 -n / 4-3 = -5

-5 -n /1 =-5

-5 - n = -5

n = 0

Answer:

Option (4).

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached,

Two right triangles ΔXYZ and ΔTUV have been given,

Given:

1). m∠Y = m∠U = 30°

2). m∠Z = m∠V = 60°

3). m∠X = m∠T = 90°

For congruence of two right triangles, measure of at least one side should be known along with the measure of angles (LA, HA, LL, HL properties of congruence).

Therefore, these triangles may be similar but not congruent.

Option (4) is the correct option.
