If y = x then it would just be y = x. A straight line going up through the origin.
The formula is y=mx+b
To get the slope or m, use this formula
(the second y minus the first y)/(the second x minus the first x)
Now set it up.
(10-7)/(2--1)
3/3=slope is 1.
y=1x+b
Insert one of the points for x and y.
i will do (-1,7)
7=1(-1)+b
7=-1+b
8=b
Insert this into the final equation:
y=1x+8
Try it out. If you're not sure, try both points. If it works, then you set it up correctly.
Answer:
<h2>800%</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p represent the population
in 1965 → the population becomes 2p
in 1970 → the population becomes 2(2p) = 4p
in 1975 → the population becomes 2(4p) = 8p
p ——————> 100%
8p ————-—-> x%
then
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that in the second equation, the coefficient of 
is 
times greater than in the first. Therefore, by making the coefficient of 
in the second equation times greater than in the first, it's impossible to only isolate one variable.
Therefore, when 
, there are no solutions to this system.
