Solve your system of equations.

2x+y=1;4x+2y=−1

Solve 2x+y=1 for y:

2x+y+−2x=1+−2x(Add -2x to both sides)

y=−2x+1

Substitute (−2x+1) for y in 4x+2y=−1:

4x+2y=−1

4x+2(−2x+1)=−1

2=−1(Simplify both sides of the equation)

2+−2=−1+−2(Add -2 to both sides)

0=−3

Answer: No solution. C)

1. Amelia can do 5 sit-ups. Her goal is to increase to 50 sit-ups by adding 5 more sit-ups to her training schedule each week. A
Olegator [25]

Answer:

(i) Equation

(ii) 10 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

The scenario is an equation and not an inequality , this is because the number of sit - ups Amelia planned to do is specific , which is 50 , had it been the question used the word like at least , at most 50 , it would have been an inequality.

The question is an example of Arithmetic sequence

From the statement ;

The first term = 5

The common difference = 5 ( since Amelia planned to add 5 more sit - ups to her training schedule each week )

The formula for the nth term of an Arithmetic sequence is given by :

t_{n} = a + (n- 1 )d

t_{n} = 50

a = 5

d = 5

n = ?

substituting the values , we have

50 = 5 + (n - 1 ) x 5

50 = 5 + 5n - 5

50 = 5n

n = 10

Therefore , it will take Amelia 10 weeks to reach her goal of 50 sit - ups

Students in 10th and 11th grade were asked whether they have a job. The raw data was converted to relative frequencies and recor
Softa [21]

Answer:

a)- Given that a student is a 10th grader, there is a 14% chance he or she has a job.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option (a) is correct here because Relative frequency means the probability of occurrence or number of time-specific event occurs to the total event.

Option (b) is not correct because We already know that student is in 10th or 11th grade, after that we get to know about 14% chance.

Option (c) & (d) are clearly not possible.
