7 0

Answer:

(0,3) and (7,0) are solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a pair of coordinates, they are always listed as (x,y). Since this is the case, you plug in each coordinate to their respective places.

For (0,3)

3(0) + 7(3) = 21

0 + 21 = 21

For (7,0)

3(7) + 7(0) = 21

21 + 0 = 21

To double check that (1,2) isn't a solution:

3(1) + 7(2) = 21

3 + 14 = 21

17 = 21 X

This doesn't work.

A population of mice is increasing exponentially. On Monday there were 120 most. One month later there were 132 most. Ready func

djyliett [7]

Answer:

$y=120 * 1.1^x$ --- function

The monthly rate is 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let

$x \to months$

$y \to mice$

So, we have:

$(x_1,y_1) = (0,120)$ --- Monday

$(x_2,y_2) = (1,132)$ --- One month later

Required

The function

The function is represented as:

$y=ab^x$

In $(x_1,y_1) = (0,120)$ , we have:

$120 = a * b^0$

$120 = a * 1$

$120 = a$

$a=120$

In $(x_2,y_2) = (1,132)$ , we have:

$132 = a * b^1$

$132 = a * b$

Substitute: $a=120$

$132 = 120 * b$

Solve for b

$b = \frac{132}{120}$

$b = 1.1$

So, the function is:

$y=ab^x$

$y=120 * 1.1^x$

To calculate the monthly rate (r), we have:

$y =a(1 + r)^x$

Compare to: $y =ab^x$

$1 + r = b$

Make r the subject

$r = b-1$

Substitute $b = 1.1$

$r = 1.1-1$

$r = 0.1$

Express as percentage

$r = 0.1*100\%$

$r = 10\%$

if you were to solve the following system by substitution, what would be the best variable to solve for and from what equation?

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+8y=12 3x-8y=11

If we have to solve by substitution, Take the first equation and divide by 2

2x/2 + 8y/2 =12/2

x+4y = 6

Then subtract 4y from each side

x = 6 -4y

Then substitute this into the second equation

This is best solved by elimination

2x+8y=12

3x-8y=11

----------------

5x = 36

x = 36/5
