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

frutty [35]

Answer:

(f+g)(x) = x² - x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find (f+g)(x) by adding f(x) and g(x).

f(x) = x² + 1

g(x) = 5 - x

(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

(f+g)(x) = (x² + 1) + (5 - x)

(f+g)(x) = x² + 1 + 5 - x

(f+g)(x) = x² - x + 6

Identify the parameters in y = a*bkx.
Natasha2012 [34]
Convention in algebra is that we use letters such as a, b, c, etc., for parameters and letters such as x, y z, and so on, for variables.

Thus the parameters here are a, b and k.  k is the constant of proportionality.
