Answer:

There are 214 total students in the band, orchestra, and choir altogether.

Step-by-step explanation:

Band: 112

Orchestra: 56

Choir: 23 boys 23 girls - 46 total

In the band, 112 kids.

In the orchestra, 56.

In the choir, 23+23=46 total

So, if we'd like to set up an equation to solve this and make it a little easier to understand,

We can assign variables. x, y, and z for example.

Population of the band is x, orchestra receives y, and choir receives z.

This question asks simply for a total, and makes sure to specify that these kids do not share hobbies in order to make it easier to achieve that goal. Because z (the number of kids in the orchestra) is already the combination of boys and girls, our equation to reach the answer (which we will call M for Music Kids, or money if you'd like) is simple.

x + y + z = M

In this equation, there is only one variable we have yet to uncover, so all we need to do is substitute the remaining three.

So, here's the full explanation in math terms.

band kids: x

orchestra kids: y

choir kids: z

x = 112

y = 56

z = 23 + 23 = 46

z = 46

M = ?

x + y + z = M

// unknown: M //

// substitute known variables //

112 + 56 + 46 = M

// simplify //

M = 214

Final Answer: there are 214 total students in the band, orchestra, and choir altogether.

A family built a house in a beach resort area. In 1990, the house was 430 ft from the water. With erosion, the house was 400 ft
neonofarm [45]

We develop an equation for the given situation by first writing the general equation for lines,

                                y = mx + b

Substituting to this given the values given above,

(1990)                      430 = b

(2000)                      400 = m(10) + 430

The value of m from the equation in 2000 is -3. Thus, the equation of that relates the variables is,

                              y = -3x + 430

Match each system of equations to its graph. y = 2x + 1 y = x + 2 y = 3x y = x + 3 y = 2x − 2 y = x − 2 y = 2x + 3 y = x + 5 y =

The matchup are:

  • (1st picture): y=2x+3 and y=x+5
  • (2nd picture): y=4x+2 and y =3x+2
  • (3rd picture): y=2x+1 and y =x+2
  • (4th picture): 3x and x+3

<h3>What does the graph of an equation shows?</h3>

The graph of the linear equation is known to be one that often brings or  set the  points that can be found on the coordinate plane and it is one that shows all the solutions to the equation.

Note that when  all variables stands for real numbers, a person can be able to use graph to show the equation and this is often done through plotting the points to show a pattern and then link up the points to have all the points.

From the above, the pictures that have all the points as shown on the graph are:

  • (1st picture): y=2x+3 and y=x+5
  • (2nd picture): y=4x+2 and y =3x+2
  • (3rd picture): y=2x+1 and y =x+2
  • (4th picture): 3x and x+3
