Answer:

The system of equation are \left \{ {{15+1x} \atop {3+5x}} \right..

In <u>3</u> weeks, the friends will each have passed <u>18</u> scales.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of weeks be 'x'.

Given:

Number of scale Pablo has passed = 15 scales

Number of scale Kayla has passed = 3 scales

Number of scales passing per week by Pablo = 1 scale

Number of scales passing per week by Kayla = 5 scale

We need find the number of weeks when both have same scales.

First we will find the Total number of scales Pablo will passed after 'x' weeks.

Total number of scales Pablo will passed after 'x' weeks is equal to sum of Number of scale Pablo has passed and Number of scales passing per week by Pablo multiplied by number of weeks.

framing in equation form we get;

Total number of scales Pablo will passed after 'x' weeks = 15+1x

Now we will find Total number of scales Kayla will passed after 'x' weeks.

Total number of scales Kayla will passed after 'x' weeks is equal to sum of Number of scale Kayla has passed and Number of scales passing per week by Kayla multiplied by number of weeks.

framing in equation form we get;

Total number of scales Kayla will passed after 'x' weeks = 3+5x

Hence the system of equation are \left \{ {{15+1x} \atop {3+5x}} \right..

Now we need to find the number of weeks when both have passed equal scales.

Hence we can say that;

Total number of scales Pablo will passed after 'x' weeks = Total number of scales Kayla will passed after 'x' weeks

Substituting the value we get;

15+1x=3+5x

On Solving the equation we get;

Combining like terms first;

5x-x=15-3\\\\4x=12

Now by Division property dividing both side by 4 we  get;

\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{12}{4} \\\\x=3 \ weeks

Now we will find the total scales passed by each after 3 weeks;

Total number of scales Pablo will passed after 3 weeks = 15+x=15+3 = 18 \ scales

Total number of scales Kayla will passed after 3 weeks = 3+5x=3+5\times3 = 18 \ scales

Hence: In <u>3</u> weeks, the friends will each have passed <u>18</u> scales.

Answer: Part A is 2 and 6 Part B is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Here is the explanation. So, you started at with the expression 3x^2+8x+4 and when you're are factoring, you have 3x^2+px+pq+4. You can substitute the p and q for 6 and 2. What they did is they replaced 8x with px+qx. To get 8x, p needs to be 6 and q needs to be 2, or the other way around. TIP: The numbers just have to add up to 8 on this one. It doesn't have to be 6 and 2.

Part B: Here is what I got so far... 3x(x+r) is 3x^2+3xr. Also, s(x+r) is sx+sr. The equation becomes, 3x^2+3xr+sx+sr. R can be 2 and s can be 2. Here is my reasoning: The original expression was 3x^2+8x+4. We already have the 3x^2, so now we need to find what the others are by determining what r and s equal. R and s can both be 2 to make four. 2x2 is 4. Let's see if it can make 8.  3xr becomes 6x and sx becomes 2x. 6x+2x is 8x.

22. B) $65,000,000 per year.

23. B) Education.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; To find the average rate of change in annual budget between the two given years. We divide the difference in values for the two years by the period in between the two years. In 2008, the budget was $358,708,000 while in 2010 it was $488,106,000. The period in between was 2 years i.e 2009 and 2010.

The average rate of change = \frac{488,106,000-358,708,000}{2} = \frac{129,398,000}{2} = $64,699,000 per year.

So the average rate of change was $64,699,000 which approximately equals option B. $65,000,000.

Step 2; To find the human resources program's 2007 to 2010 ratio we divide the value in 2007 to the value in 2010. To find the other similar ratio, we divide the value in 2007 to the value in 2010 for all the other programs and determine which is closest to the human resources program.

Human resources program ratio = \frac{4,051,050}{5,921,379} = 0.6841,

Agricultural / natural resources ratio = \frac{373,904}{488,106} = 0.766,

Education's ratio = \frac{2,164,607}{3,008,036} = 0.7196,

General government's ratio = \frac{14,347,325}{14,716,155} = 0.9749,

Highways and transportation's ratio = \frac{1,468,482}{1,773,893} = 0.827,

Public safety's ratio = \frac{263,463}{464,233} = 0.5675.

The Human resources' program ratio is 0.6841 and the closest is Education's ratio which is 0.7196. So education is the answer.
