Y = -1.5x + 5.7
y = 0.5x + 0.3
-1.5x + 5.7 = 0.5x + 0.3
-1.5x - 0.5x = 0.3 - 5.7
-2x = - 5.4
x = -5.4/-2
x = 2.7
y = 0.5x + 0.3
y = 0.5(2.7) + 0.3
y = 1.35 + 0.3
y = 1.65
solution is (2.7, 1.65)
Sophia is more likely to be correct because the x coordinate is between 2 and 3 and the y coordinate is in between 1 and 2
Answer:
b. x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
x¹⁶ − x¹⁴ = k (x¹⁵ − x¹⁴)
x¹⁴ (x² − 1) = k x¹⁴ (x − 1)
x² − 1 = k (x − 1)
(x − 1) (x + 1) = k (x − 1)
x + 1 = k
