<h3>Answer: Approximately -0.0742857 grams per year</h3>

======================================================

Work Shown:

x = year

y = amount of hydrocarbon emissions in grams, per mile driven

m = rate of change = slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (0.8 - 3.4)/(2007 - 1972)

m = -2.6/35

m = -0.0742857 approximately

The approximate rate of change is about -0.0742857 grams per year. The negative rate of change indicates the per mile hydrocarbon amount has gone down by about 0.0742857 grams each year.

Answer:

$18.63

Step-by-step explanation:

15% of 45 is equal to 45 times .15, which is equal to 6.75.

45+6.75 = 51.75

Ben resold the guitar for $51.75

36% of 51.75 is equal to 51.75*.36 or 18.63

How to solve using Substitution or Elimination?<br> y=3x-1<br><br> y=2x+2
n200080 [17]

By elimination:

y = 3x - 1

y = 2x + 2

Subtract the second equation from the first

0 = x - 1

y = 2x + 2

Subtract the first equation from the second

0 = x - 1

y = x + 3

Subtract the first equation from the second again

0 = x - 1

y =      4

Subtract x from both sides of the first equation

- x =  - 1

y =      4

Divide the first equation by (-1)    

x =  1

y =  4

<h3>So, the solution is  x = 1  and  y = 4   {or: (1, 4)}</h3>
