Answer: Choice C) -11
-----------------------------------
Explanation:
The first equation given is y = 3 - 1/2x
In other words, y is the same as 3 - 1/2x.
We can replace y in the second equation with 3 - 1/2x
This is known as substitution (think of a substitute teacher who is a temporary replacement for your teacher)
Doing this leads to...
3x+4y = 1
3x+4*y = 1
3x+4*( y ) = 1
3x+4*( 3 - 1/2x ) = 1 <<--- y has been replaced with 3-1/2x
3x+4*(3) +4*(-1/2x) = 1
3x+12-2x = 1
3x-2x+12 = 1
x+12 = 1
x+12-12 = 1-12 <<-- subtracting 12 from both sides
x = -11
Which is why the answer is choice C) -11
The correct answer is C because the lowest number is 4 ( out of all the numbers ), which is the dot to the above the number 4 and the largest number is 14, that is also marked by a dot above the number 18. The medians are ( the middle number ) 8 and 10, so you are going to add these to numbers together, 8 + 10 = 18, and then you have to divide it by 2, 18 ÷ 2 = 9, which means the median is 9, which is the middle line. For the 1st quartile, you have to add both the 7's and divide by 2, 7+7=14 ÷ 2 = 7, so then the 1st quartile is 7, the line closest to the 4, repeat this for the 3rd quartile, 11 + 13 = 24 ÷ 2 = 12, 3rd quartile = 12, the line closest to the number 14.
Answer:
Adjacent length = √(50) m
Pythagorean theorem:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = √(50) m
b = √(50) m
c^2 = √(50)^2 + √(50)^2
c^2 = 50 + 50
c^2 = 100
c = 10 m
Diagonal = 10 m
Shopping...
there is a sale on a shirt for 1/3 off, but the shirt costs 5 dollars. You would then need to convert the fraction to a decimal to find the percentage you would get off of the original price.
