The equation that models this relationship is y = 3x + 2.
Answer:
The answer is 3.785, but rounding it to the nearest hundredth is 3.68 or 3.79, depending on rather they wanted you to take the t and round up or just leave it off.
If the number of downloads of the standard version is x, and the high quality is x, 2.1*x+4.1*y=2761 (not 1010 due to that this is multiplied by 2.1 and 4.1, therefore representing the total amount of megabytes) In addition, there are 1010 total downloads, and it's either 2.1 MB or 4.1 MB, so x+y=1010.
We have
2.1x+4.1y=2761
x+y=1010
Multiplying the second equation by -2.1 and adding it to the first equation, we get 2y=2761-1010*2.1=640 and by dividing both sides by 2 we get y=320 downloads of the high quality version
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we define the variables:
x: number of years after 1950
f (x): amount of vinyl sold.
Then, with the variables defined, we have:
68594 vinyl records were sold in 1958 ---------> f (8) = 68594
91299 vinyl records were sold in 1961 ---------> f (11) = 91299
38720 vinyl records were sold in 1952 ---------> f (2) = 38720
161743 vinyl records were sold in 1967 ---------> f (17) = 161743
