Answer:
{1, 2, 3}, {3, 4, 5}
Step-by-step explanation:
Write expressions for three consecutive integers: n, n + 1, n + 2.
Set up an equation for the verbal description: the product (mulitplication) of the two larger integers (the last two) is one less than 7 times the smallest (the first one).
(n + 1)(n + 2) = 7n - 1
Multiply (FOIL) the left side.
n^2 + 3n + 2 = 7n - 1
Subtract 7n and subtract 1 to make the right side 0.
n^2 - 4n + 3 = 0
Factor.
(n - 1)(n - 3) = 0
Set the two factors equal to 0
n - 1 = 0, n - 3 = 0
Solve for n.
n = 1, n = 3
One set of integers begins with 1, so it's {1, 2, 3}.
The other set begins with 3, so it's {3, 4, 5}
The equation would be 3(x + 5)
x= hot dogs
y= soda
Total sold
1 x + 1 y = 87 .............1
2 x 0.50 y = 78.50 .............2
Eliminate y
multiply (1)by -0.50
Multiply (2) by 1.00
-0.50 x -0.50 y = -43.50
2 x + 0.50 y = 78.50
Add the two equations
1 x = 35.00
/ 1
x = 35.00
plug value of x in (1)
1 x + 1 y = 87
35 + y = 87
y = 87 -35
y = 52
y = 52.00
x= 35 hot dogs
y= 52 soda
The answer for question 47 is A
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
You have 2 points to solve the equation y = mx + b. After finding m, use either of the points to find b.
Formula
y = mx + b
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
Solution
- y2 = 13
- y1 = 5
- x2 = 0
- x1 = 24
m = (13 - 5)/(0 - 24)
m = 8 / - 24
m = - 1/3
y = mx + b
y = -1/3 x + b
Use (0,13) as the point.
13 = -1/3 * 0 + b
13 = b
The y intercept = (0,13)
