Answer:

The numbers are 73, 173 and 292.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the numbers are x, y and z we have:

y = 4x

z = x + 100

x + y + z = 538

Substituting for y in the last equation:

x + 4x + z = 538

5x + z = 538.............(1)

From the second equation:

z - x = 100................(2)

Equation (1) - (2) gives:

6x = 438

x = 73

Therefore y = 4x) = 4(73) = 292

and z = x + 100 = 73 + 100 = 173.

Answer:

73

292

173

Step-by-step explanation:

x = first number

4x = second number

100 + x = third number

x + 4x + 100 + x = 538

6x + 100 = 538

6x + 100 - 100 = 538 - 100

6x = 438

6x/6 = 438/6

x = 73

Check:

73 + 4(73) + 100 + 73 = 538

73 + 292 + 173 = 538

538 = 538

Which function has a greater y-intercept?
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Option C, both functions have an y-intersect equal to 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a function f(x), the y-intercept is the value f(0). This is the point where the graph of the function intersects the y-axis.

Then, for f(x) = -x^2 + 5*x + 2

The y-intercept is:

f(0) = -0^2 + 5*0 + 2 = 2

f(0) = 2

And for g(x) we do not have the equation, but we have the graph, so we can just look at which value of y does the graph intersects the y-axis.

We can see that the graph intersects the graph at y = 2

Then the y-intersect is: g(0) = 2

So both functions have the same y-intersect. Then the correct option is C.
