The rates are not equivalent; 24/6 is less than the rate 36/8.

How do I solve systems of equations? I was absent and the test is next week!
MrRa [10]
Well, there are three different ways to solve systems of equations:
a) Graphing
b) Substitution
c) Elimination

Graphing:
If your system of equations are written in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b "m" being the slope and "b" being the y-intercept) its quite easy.
The y-intercept is pretty much where your line touches the y-axis so if your first equation is: y=3x-2 then you will put your first point on (0,-2). Then from that point you follow the slope. if the slope is 3 then you'll rise 3 and run 1 (go three times up and one to the right and put your point right there) till you feel you have enough points to make a line. You do the same process with your second equation.

Substitution:
This is best when you have a system of equations in which an equation tells you what x or y are equal to. For example: if I have "4x+2=y" and "2y+3x= 26" you can "replace" your "2y" with the equation "4x+2=y" which gives you a brand new equation: " 2(4x+2)+3x=26". To solve this you do the distributive property and link like terms which gives you the equation "11x+4=26". Then you solve like a normal equation, isolating x and then you'll get the value of x (in this case x=2). Now you go to the first equation "4x+2=y" and replace "x" to its value (in this case it's 2) and you get y (in this example, y=10).

Elimination:
I think this one is one of the easiest methods. Let's say my systems of equations is "5x-6y=-32" & "3x+6y=48". If you take a look at y's coefficients, you see they are the same. So you can "cancel them out" like this:
      5x-6y=-32
   + 3x+6y=48
-----------------------
     8x=16  <-------- when you get this, you can solve like a normal equation
       x=2

Also, if you have, for example:
2x+6y=190 & 2x+3y=130
You can solve this by: canceling x or multiplying the second equation by 2 and canceling y.
I'm gonna show you how to do the second way (multiplying and canceling y)
My second equation is "2x+3y=130". To get an equivalent equation, I just have to multiply the whole equation by any number. If I want to cancel y, then I have to multiply by 2.
So "2x+3y=130" turns into "4x+6y=260"
Now you follow the same procedure as before:
            2x+6y=190
       -    4x+6y=260
-------------------------------
      -2x= -70
       2x=70--------> x=35
Then you pretty much follow the substitution method by replacing "x" to "35" in one of the equations.

        Hope this covers all you missed in class. If you have any questions you can comment them here or message me. :D Good luck in your exam!!!

(05.05)<br> Describe the y-intercept and end behavior of the following graph:
Anika [276]

Answer:

Y-Intercept: (0,-8), End behavior: Asymptote

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y axis, which would be (0, -8). The end behavior looks like an asymptote, but I'm not sure of how you would answer this.

A negative value of r means that:
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

(d.) Those who score high on one variable tend to score low on the other.

Step-by-step explanation:

A negative value of correlation coefficient (r) shows a relationship between two variables such that as one variable increases, the other decreases. It shows the inverse relationship between two variables with the dependence determined by the value of the correlation coefficient (r).

It can be observed that for graphs with negative slope, the correlation coefficient (r) is similarly negative. This speaks about its relationship too.

The correlation coefficient being negative doesn't mean the relationship between the two variables in question is bad, it just means that the correlation relationship is inverse (still dependent). A perfectly negative correlation is -1.
