Hey there!
y = -2x + 19
y = x + 7
We gonna solve this system of equation by using the substitution method.
We wanna solve y = -2x + 19 for y
Let start by substitute -2x + 19 for y in y = x + 7
y = x + 7
-2x + 19 = x + 7
Subtract x from both sides
-2x + 19 - x = x + 7 - x
-3x + 19 = 7
Now subtract 19 on both sides
-3x + 19 - 19 = 7 - 19
-3x = -12
Then divide both sides by -3
-3x/-3 = -12/-3
x = 4
We have the value of x. Now we gonna use that same value to find the value for y.
We gonna do that by substitute 4 for x in y = -2x + 19
y = -2x + 19
y = -2(4) + 19
y = -8 + 19
y = 11
Thus,
The answer is: x = 4 and y = 11
Let me know if you have questions about the answer. As always, it is my pleasure to help students like you!
Answer:
Kristi
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for Simple Interest =
Principal × Rate × Time
For Kristi
Kristi invests $3,000 at a 7.25% annual simple interest rate,
Principal = $3000
Rate = 7.25% = 0.0725
Time = 1
Simple interest = $3000 × 0.0725 × 1
= $217.5
For Kari
Her sister Kari invests $3,200 at a 6.25% annual simple interest rate.
Principal = $3200
Rate = 6.25% = 0.0625
Time = 1
Simple interest = $3200 × 0.0625 × 1
= $200
From the above calculation, we can see that: Kristi will earn the greater amount of interest after one year
1/-5, because when x increases by 1, y decreases by 5
Answer:
1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
1/4 ÷ 2 = 0.125
0.125 as a decimal is 1/8
