Remark
For every 3 units for NP will be 4 units. You can set up a proportion.
3*NP = 4*45
3*NP = 180 Divide by 3
NP = 180/3
NP = 60
Answer C
Here's how you solve this. So, x+y=2, right? Let's isolate x. x+y-y=2-y. x=2-y. NOW, if x=2-y, in 3x+2y=5, we can REPLACE x with 2-y and use it to solve for y! 3x+2y=5. 3(2-y)+2y=5. (3*2)+(3*-y)+2y=5. 6+(-3y)+2y=5. 6+(-y)=5. 6+(-y)-6=5-6. -y=-1. -y/-1=-1/-1. y=1.
So, if y=1, we can substitute that back into either equation--but let's go with the easier one, x+y=2. x+1=2. x+1-1=2-1. x=1. 1+1=2, so that works; let's check the other equation. 3(1)+2(1)=5. 3+2=5. 5=5. That's correct!
Answer: x=1, y=1
Answer:
Evaluating Polynomials:
a. f(1) = -10
b. f(-3) = -239
c. f(2)² = 3125
Factoring Polynomials:
a. (x + 1)(x² - 5x + 6) = (x + 1)(x - 3)(x - 2)
b. (x² - x - 6)(x² + 6x + 9) = (x - 3)(x + 2)(x + 3)(x + 3)
c. x³ + 3x² - 4x - 12 = (x + 3)(x - 2)(x + 2)(x - 2)(x + 2)
Answer: Noah is right. If the mean for the second lake is 60ft and the first lake is 45ft, the second lake has an average depth that is 15 feet deeper.
The standard deviations also indicate that the second lake has some even deeper spots, and even the shallower spots of the second lake are about the same as the shallow spots of the first lake.
