The percent increase in enrollment is 6 %
The operation used in first step is finding the difference between final value and initial value
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>
Given that This year, 1,272 students enrolled in night courses a a local college
Last year only 1,200 students enrolled.
To find: percent increase in the enrollment
The percent increase between two values is the difference between a final value and an initial value, expressed as a percentage of the initial value.
<em><u>The percent increase is given as:</u></em>
Here initial value (last year) = 1200 and final value(this year) = 1272
Substituting the values in above formula,
Thus percent increase is 6 %
Answer:
The product of the y-coordinates of the solutions is equal to 3
Step-by-step explanation:
we have
-----> equation A
------> equation B
Solve by graphing
Remember that the solutions of the system of equations are the intersection point both graphs
using a graphing tool
The solutions are the points (2,3) and (6,1)
see the attached figure
The y-coordinates of the solutions are 3 and 1
therefore
The product of the y-coordinates of the solutions is equal to
(3)(1)=3
X + 5y = 1 . . . . (1)
8x - 2y = 3 . . . .(2)
Solution 1.
From (1), x = 1 - 5y
substituting for x in (2), we have:
8(1 - 5y) - 2y = 3
8 - 40y - 2y = 3
8 - 42y = 3
42y = 5
y = 5/42
x = 1 - 5(5/42) = 1 - 25/42 = 17/42.
Solution 2.
Multiply (1) by 8, to get:
8x + 40y = 8 . . . . . (3)
(3) - (2) = 40y - (-2y) = 8 - 3
42y = 5
y = 5/42
substitute for y into (3), to get:
8x + 40(5/42) = 8
8x + 100/21 = 8
8x = 8 - 100/21 = 68/21
x = (68/21)/8 = 17/42
Answer= .2 probability
Explanation: Since there is a total of 10 marbles, and 2 are red, you would divide the red marbles (2) out of the total marbles (10) which would get u .2. Since it’s asking for probability, we would keep .2 a decimal.
I got the answer to be 42.
