Answer:   53.4 = 19.9 + p

33.5% of commuters took public transportation in San Francisco.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the percentage of commuters took public transportation in San Francisco.

Given: 53.4% of commuters took public transportation in New York City, which was 19.9% greater than the percentage in San Francisco.

That means,

53.4 = 19.9 + p

Hence, required equation : 53.4 = 19.9 + p

Subtract 19.9 from both sides , we get

53.4-19.9=19.9-19.9+p\\\\\Rightarrow\ 33.5=p

hence, 33.5% of commuters took public transportation in San Francisco.

What is the equation of the line that passes through (–2, 3) and is parallel to 2x + 3y = 6?
sergeinik [125]
If they are parallel then the coefficients of x and y will remain the same.  Only the constant will change.

2x + 3y = ?
2(-2) +3(3) = -4 + 9 = 5 so ? is 5

ANSWER: 2x + 3y = 5

- 7 ( x - 2 ) + 1 = 15 - 7x
Savatey [412]

Answer: x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to open up the parenthesis so you multiply every term inside the parenthesis by -7.

1.  -7x + 14 + 1 = 15 -7x

2. Combine like terms -7x + 15 = 15-7x

The two sides of the equation are the same so that means that x=1

Let's divide the shaded region into two areas:

area 1: x = 0 ---> x = 2

ares 2: x = 2 ---> x = 4

In area 1, we need to find the area under g(x) = x and in area 2, we need to find the area between g(x) = x and f(x) = (x - 2)^2. Now let's set up the integrals needed to find the areas.

Area 1:

A\frac{}{1}  = ∫g(x)dx =  ∫xdx =  \frac{1}{2}  {x}^{2}  | \frac{2}{0}  = 2

Area 2:

A\frac{}{2}  = ∫(g(x) - f(x))dx

= ∫(x -  {(x - 2)}^{2} )dx

=  ∫( - {x}^{2}  + 5x - 4)dx

= ( - \frac{1}{3}{x}^{3} +   \frac{5}{2} {x}^{2}  - 4x)   | \frac{4}{2}

= 2.67 - ( - 0.67) = 3.34

Therefore, the area of the shaded portion of the graph is

A = A1 + A2 = 5.34
