Answer:

x = 3 and y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

using substitution method

let;

2x + 3y = 3 ................ equation 1

x + 2y = 1 ...................... equation 2

from equation 2

x + 2y = 1 ...................... equation 2

x = 1 - 2y .................... equation 3

substitute  for  x = 1 - 2y  in equation 1

2x + 3y = 3 ................ equation 1

2 ( 1 - 2y) + 3y = 3

Open the bracket  

2 -4y + 3y = 3

2 - y = 3

-y = 3 - 2

-y = 1

multiply both sides by -

therefore y = -1

put y = -1 in equation 3

x = 1 - 2y .................... equation 3

x = 1 - 2 ( -1)

x = 1 + 2

x = 3

therefore x = 3 and y = -1

to check for the correctness of your answer put the value of x = 3 and y = -1 in any of the equations. e.g

x = 1 - 2y .................... equation 3

3 = 1 - 2(-1)

3= 3................................. proved

mezya [45]

Answer:

Part (A): The scale of y: 1 interval being equal to 500 units and from 14,000 to 18,500.

Part (B): The good interval to use for the y-axis should be 1 to 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

As we know the X axis represents the independent variable, since years are the independent variable. So, X axis represents the years.

Y axis represents the dependent variable, since average cost is dependent variable. So, Y axis represents the average cost.

Part (A) what is a good scale to use for the y-axis?

It is given that range is from $14,000 to $18,500.

So, 1 interval being equal to 500 units, so that it will suitable for 18,500.

The scale of y should be 14,000 to 18,500 as 14,000 is the starting average cost and 18,500 is the last average cost.

Part (b) what is a good interval to use for the y-axis?

The scale for x should be 1 year. As It should start from 1 to 10.

The good interval to use for the y-axis should be 1 to 10.

The required scale is shown in figure,
