Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's try getting rid of the numbers to isolate the x.

Add x on both sides to get rid of the x on the right side and to get 2x on the left side. This leaves us with 15.3 + 2x = 1.3

Subtract 15.3 on both sides to get rid of the 15.3 on the left side.

This would leave us with 2x = -14

Divide 2 on both sides to isolate the x.

The answer is x = -7

What is the solution to the system? <br><br> (___,___)

Rina8888 [55]

For the first line we have a slope of (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(2--2)/(1--1)=4/2=2 so we have:

y=2x+b, now solve for b with either of the points, I'll use: (1,2)

2=2(1)+b

b=0 so the first line is:

y=2x

Now the second line:

(1-10)/(4--2)=-9/6=-3/2 so far then we have:

y=-3x/2+b, using point (4,1) we solve for b...

1=-3(4)/2+b

1=-6+b

b=7 so

y=-3x/2+7 or more neatly...

y=(-3x+14)/2

...

The solution occurs when both the x and y coordinates for each are equal, so we can say y=y, and use our two line equations...

2x=(-3x+14)/2

4x=-3x+14

7x=14

x=2, and using y=2x we see that:

y=2(2)=4, so the solution occurs at the point:

(2,4)

mr.browns salary is 32,000 and imcreases by $300 each year, write a sequence showing the salary for the first five years when wi

chubhunter [2.5K]

Hello!

We have the following data:

a1 (first term or first year salary) = 32000

r (ratio or annual increase) = 300

n (number of terms or each year worked)

We apply the data in the Formula of the General Term of an Arithmetic Progression, to find in sequence the salary increases until it exceeds 34700, let us see:

formula:

$a_n = a_1 + (n-1)*r$

* second year salary

$a_2 = a_1 + (2-1)*300$

$a_2 = 32000 + 1*300$

$a_2 = 32000 + 300$

$\boxed{a_2 = 32300}$

* third year salary

$a_3 = a_1 + (3-1)*300$

$a_3 = 32000 + 2*300$

$a_3 = 32000 + 600$

$\boxed{a_3 = 32600}$

* fourth year salary

$a_4 = a_1 + (4-1)*300$

$a_4 = 32000 + 3*300$

$a_4 = 32000 + 900$

$\boxed{a_4 = 32900}$

* fifth year salary

$a_5 = a_1 + (5-1)*300$

$a_5 = 32000 + 4*300$

$a_5 = 32000 + 1200$

$\boxed{a_5 = 33200}$

We note that after the first five years, Mr. Browns' salary has not yet surpassed 34700, let's see when he will exceed the value:

* sixth year salary

$a_6 = a_1 + (6-1)*300$

$a_6 = 32000 + 5*300$

$a_6 = 32000 + 1500$

$\boxed{a_6 = 33500}$

* seventh year salary

$a_7 = a_1 + (7-1)*300$

$a_7 = 32000 + 6*300$

$a_7 = 32000 + 1800$

$\boxed{a_7 = 33800}$

* eighth year salary

$a_8 = a_1 + (8-1)*300$

$a_8 = 32000 + 7*300$

$a_8 = 32000 + 2100$

$\boxed{a_8 = 34100}$

* ninth year salary

$a_9 = a_1 + (9-1)*300$

$a_9 = 32000 + 8*300$

$a_9 = 32000 + 2400$

$\boxed{a_9 = 34400}$

* tenth year salary

$a_{10} = a_1 + (10-1)*300$

$a_{10} = 32000 + 9*300$

$a_{10} = 32000 + 2700$

$\boxed{a_{10} = 34700}$

we note that in the tenth year of salary the value equals but has not yet exceeded the stipulated value, only in the eleventh year will such value be surpassed, let us see:

* eleventh year salary

$a_{11} = a_1 + (11-1)*300$
