Answer:

x = -9/7, y = 50/7.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 13 ---------(eqn 1)

3x - y = -11 -----------(eqn 2)

Let's solve simultaneously using elimination method by multiplying eqn 2 by 2 so as to eliminate y.

3x - y = - 11 -------( × 2)

It gives

6x - 2y = - 22 ---------- ( new eqn 2)

x + 2y = 13 -----------( eqn 1)

Now add eqn 1 and new eqn 2

6x + x -2y + 2y = -22 + 13

7x = -9

Divide both sides by 7

7x/7  = -9/7

x = -9/7

Put x = -9/7 into eqn 1

x + 2y = 13

-9/7 + 2y = 13

Add 9/7 to both sides

-9/7+9/7 + 2y = 13+9/7

2y = 100/7

Divide both sides by 2

2y/2 = 100/7 ÷ 2

y = 100/7 × 1/2

y = (100÷2)/7

y = 50/7

Therefore

x = -9/7, y = 50/7

(-9/7, 50/7)

Therefore (-1,7) is not the solution for both equations , it is not a solution for NEITHER equation.

In 2002, there were 972 students enrolled at Oakview High School. Since then, the number of students has increased by 1.5% each
Rudiy27

Answer:

N(t) = 972(1.015)^{t}

Growth function.

The number of students enrolled in 2014 is 1162.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of students in the school in t years after 2002 can be modeled by the following function:

N(t) = N(0)(1+r)^{t}

In which N(0) is the number of students in 2002 and r is the rate of change.

If 1+r>1, the function is a growth function.

If 1-r<1, the function is a decay function.

In 2002, there were 972 students enrolled at Oakview High School.

This means that N(0) = 972

Since then, the number of students has increased by 1.5% each year.

Increase, so r is positive. This means that r = 0.015

Then

N(t) = N(0)(1+r)^{t}

N(t) = 972(1+0.015)^{t}

N(t) = 972(1.015)^{t}

Growth function.

Find the number of students enrolled in 2014.

2014 is 2014-2002 = 12 years after 2002, so this is N(12).

N(t) = 972(1.015)^{t}

N(12) = 972(1.015)^{12}

N(12) = 1162

The number of students enrolled in 2014 is 1162.
