The lines are
i) y=-x+6
ii) y=2x-3
The solution of the system of equations is found by equalizing the 2 equations:
-x+6=2x-3
-2x-x=-6-3
-3x=-9
x=-9/(-3)=3
substitute x=3 in either i) or ii):
i) y=-3+6=3
ii) y=2(3)-3=6-3=3
(the result is the same, so checking one is enough)
This means that the point (3, 3) is a point which is in both lines, so a solution to the system.
In graphs, this means that the lines intersect at (3, 3) ONLY
Answer: The graph where the lines intersect at (3, 3)
Let's take a look at the <em>relationship</em> between x and y in this function. When we look at the first non-zero pair, (-1, 1), we can see that, in the transition from x to y, our x value was had to have been multiplied by -1. For now, we could tentatively say that y = -x. Unfortunately, the next pair, (-4, 2), debunks this hypothesis pretty quickly, as 2 ≠ -(-4). We'll need to reexamine the relationship between x and y here.
One patter that we can be fairly confident in is that multiplication by -1; the sign is flipped from negative to positive when we go from x to y in each case, so we can hold onto that component of the function. Something else is happening before that sign flip, though, and we'll need to look into that by seeing how else the numbers are connected.
Ignoring the negative signs for a moment, let's take a look at the pairs (1,1) and (4, 2). We can transform 1 to 1 pretty easily; we simply multiply or divide it by 1. From 4 to 2, we can either divide it by 2 or multiply it by 1/2. Let's thing in terms of division for now. We know that
1/1 = 1 (obviously)
4/2 = 2
We might have something here! It looks like the number we divide by and the number we obtain are the same, so let's explore this further. Multiplying both sides by those denominators, we find:
1 = 1²
4 = 2²
Almost there! To finally find the relationship, we just square root both sides to get:
√1 = 1
√4 = 2
So that was the function we'd been looking for - a square root! Putting that together with what we said about changing the sign at the beginning, we have:
y =√(-x)
To verify this, we just need to plug in a few pairs, and we find that indeed:
1 = √-(-1) = √1 = 1
2 = √-(-4) = √4 = 2
21/5.2
because in order to get mean you have to add all the numbers up and divide by the amount you added so 20+28+26+26+30+24+25+26+28+27= 210 divide by 10= 21
in order to get mad you take all the numbers and subtract them from the mean (what ever you get make sure the number is positive) so 21-20=1 28-21=7 and so on then add up the numbers and divide again to get 52 divide that by 10 and you get 5.2
because it is means to mad ratio the answer is 21/5.2
The answer would be -10 down
