x=number of members

y=number of non-members

total peple was 239 so x+y=239

total collected was 593 so 2x+3y=593


we have 2 equations, 2 unknowns

x+y=239

2x+3y=593

elimination

multiply 1st equation by -2

-2x-2y=-478

add to 2nd equation


-2x-2y=-478

<u>2x+3y=593 +</u>

0x+1y=115


y=115

solve for x

x+y=239

x+115=239

x=124


124 zoo members and 115 non-members visited the zoo that day

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The leftmost line segment has a slope of -2 and (-1,-1)  is a point on the line.

Equation: y = -2x-3

middle line segment has a slope of 0 and  y-intercept of -2.

Equation:  y = -2

The rightmost line segment has a slope of 1.5. (5,0) is a point on the line.

y = 1.5(x-5) = 1.5x-7.5

Perform the addition.<br> (3x² + 3x - 5) + (-7x² + 9)
lakkis [162]
The question is asking us to find the sum. To do this, let's first write the original equation and then take it from there.
(3 x^{2}  + 3x - 5) + (-7 x^{2}  + 9)<span>
Use distributive property:
</span>3 x^{2}  + 3x - 5 - 7 x^{2}  + 9
Combine Like Terms:
&#10;-4 x^{2} +3x+4
Therefore, the answer to your question is -4x² + 3x + 4. Hope this helps and have a fantastic day!
