- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
y - 3x = 1
2y - x = 12
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
y - 3x = 1
- Add 3x on both sides: y = 3x + 1
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
y = 3x + 1
2y - x = 12
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: 2(3x + 1) - x = 12
- Distribute 2: 6x + 2 - x = 12
- Combine like terms: 5x + 2 = 12
- Isolate <em>x</em> term: 5x = 10
- Isolate <em>x</em>: x = 2
<u>Step 5: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Define equation: 2y - x = 12
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: 2y - 2 = 12
- Isolate <em>y </em>term: 2y = 10
- Isolate <em>y</em>: y = 5
Answer:
B. Linear increasing
Step-by-step explanation:
decay means decreasing
exponential graph would have a curve
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, to keep our numbers manageable, we are going to let year 2001 = 0 so year 2012 = 11. The coordinates that result from these years/population numbers are (0, 22200) and (11, 13950). Since this linear, we can plug those 2 coordinate pairs into the slope equation to find the rate at which the population is decreasing in people per year:
That means that the town is losing people at the rate of 750 per year. We can use that slop along with one of the coordinate points to write the linear equation representing this situation:
and
y = -750x + 22200. That answers part A.
Now for B we need to find y when x = 13 (remember we let year 2001 = 0, so year 2014 = 13):
y = -750(13) + 22200 so
y = 12450 people in the year 2014
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
z-score representing 85% is 1.04 (from table)
Let x be the score representing the lower limit of 85%.
<u>Use the formula to find z-scores:</u>
<u>We have:</u>
<u>Substitute the values and solve for x:</u>
- 1.04 = (x - 78)/7
- x - 78 = 7.28
- x = 85.28
The lower limit of the top 15% is 85.28.
Since your score is greater than 85.28 you earned an A
