Answer:
A ; 23rd century
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to select which of the options is next to have a descending year.
Since all are in the same century i.e 20-something, we do not have an issue with the first digit.
What we need to work on is the last three digits;
We can have 2210, we can have 2321, we can have 2432, we can also have 2543 and so on.
The most recent of all these is the year 2210, so what century does this belong?
Kindly note that, the years 2001-2100 belong to the 21st century.
The years 2101-2200 belong to the 22nd century while the years 2201-2300 belong to the 23rd century
The year we are looking to place is the year 2201 and thus belongs to between 2201-2300 which is the 23rd century
Answer:
$901.9918
Step-by-step explanation:
$901.9918
The first equation, 8x - 9y = - 23
Obtain the equation in slope- intercept form
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )
to calculate m use the gradient formula
m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = ( 
, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 4, - 1 )
m = 
= (- 4)/- 
= 
partial equation is y = x + c
to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
using (- 4, - 1 ), then
- 1 = - 
+ c ⇒ c = 
y = x + ← in slope- intercept form
the equation of a line in standard form is
Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )
rearrange the slope- intercept equation into this form
multiply through by 9
9y = 8x + 23 ( subtract 9y and 23 from both sides )
8x - 9y = - 23 in standard form
6x - 5y = 5
3x + 5y = 4
----------------add
9x = 9
x = 9/9
x = 1 <===
