If you are looking for the intersect between the two lines, the answer is (1, 9)
Answer:
Year 7 = 75 students
Year 9 = 25 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Year 7 has 3/8 of the total since the circle is divided into 8 sections and has 3 of the 8 sections
3/8 * 200 students = 75
Year 9 has 1/8 of the total since the circle is divided into 8 sections and has 1 of the 8 sections
1/8 * 200 =25
I did (450*3/4=337.5) to get how much each person would eat, then I did (337.5*14=4725g) to see how big the turkey should be. I then converted grams to kilos (4725*0.001=4.725 kg), and I got how big the turkey would be. It turns out the appropriate size of the turkey would be medium, so then what I did was that I looked for the medium price of the turkey per kg, and found that it was £5.99 per kg. I did (4.725*5.99) and I got about £28.30.
It would cost £28.30 for 14 people.
Adding both equations cancels y:
<span>4x + 8y = 16
</span><span>4x - 8y = 0
-----------------+
8x = 16 => x=2
filling in x=2 in the first equation gives:
4*2 + 8y = 16 => 8y = 8 => y=1
So (2,1) is the (x,y) pair that solves the two equations. Answer C.</span>
