-2x + 6y = 6

6y - 6 = 2x

6(y-1) = 2x

(1/2) * 6(y-1) = 2x * (1/2)

x = 3(y-1)

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

If, x = 3(y-1),

-7 * 3(y-1) + 8y = -5

-21 * (y-1) + 8y = -5

-21y + 21 + 8y = -5

21 + 5 = 21y - 8y

26 = 13y

y = 26/13

Therefore: y=2.

----------

If y=2,

x = 3(2-1) = 3

-----------

Answers:

x=3 and y=2.

Math workshops and final exams: The college tutoring center staff are considering whether the center should increase the number

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

2. Number of workshops attended.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable of interest for predicting the final exam score and doing regression analysis is workshop attendance. Therefore, the response variable should be the number of workshops attended by each student.

This also agrees with what the college tutoring center staff are considering, which forms the research question: "should the center increase the number of math workshops they offer to help students improve their performance in math classes?"

A boat crew rowed 10.5 miles downstream, with the current, in 1.5 hours. the return trip upstream , against the current , covere

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The speed of the boat is 5 miles per hours

The speed of the current is 2 miles per hours .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The distance cover by boat downstream = D = 10.5 miles

The time taken by boat to cover D distance = T = 1.5 hours

The distance cover by boat Upstream = d = 10.5 miles

The time taken by boat to cover d distance = t = 3.5 hours

Let The speed of boat = x mph

Let The speed of current = mph

Now, According to question

∵ Speed = $\dfrac{Distance}{Time}$

For Downstream

x + y = $\dfrac{D}{T}$

Or, x + y = $\dfrac{10.5}{1.5}$

Or, x + y = 7 .......A

For Upstream

x - y = $\dfrac{d}{t}$

Or, x - y = $\dfrac{10.5}{3.5}$

Or, x - y = 3 .......B

Now, Solving eq A and eq B

So, (x + y) + (x - y) = 7 + 3

Or, (x + x) + (y - y) = 10

Or, 2 x + 0 = 10

∴ x = $\dfrac{10}{2}$

i.e x = 5 mph

So, The speed of the boat = x = 5 miles per hours

Put the value of x into eq A

∵ x + y = 7

Or, 5 + y = 7

∴ y = 7 - 5

i.e y = 2 mph

So, The speed of the current = y = 2 miles per hours

Hence, The speed of the boat is 5 miles per hours and The speed of the current is 2 miles per hours . Answer
