Answer:

5 and 13

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If we call the larger number x and the smaller y we can write two equations.

y= x - 8 and x - 3=2y

2) we can substitute the x-8 in for the y in the second equation.

x-3=2(x-8)

3) by distributing and simplifying we find that x=13

4) To find y we need to plug x back into the first equation.

y=13-8

y=5

Natalija [7]
Well the dependent variable is .75, and the independent variable is 10.

So,
.75x + 10 would be the equation, the number of miles representing x.

The table says that the x value represents the number the years since 1985. To find the number of bald eagle pairs in 1998, we need to calculate x:

1998 - 1985 = 13

Now plug 13 in for x to find y:

y = 312.5(13) + 1562.5

y = 5625

Dexter has 83 tiles left over from tiling his bathroom floor and he would like to use them to tile the front entrance of his hou
creativ13 [48]

Answer: [0, 396]

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the acceptable values of x in the function.  In this case, x = t, the number of tiles.  If you think about it, the minimum number of tiles is 0 (you can't have a negative number of tiles), and the maximum number of tiles is 44 (you only have 44 tiles).  So, the domain for this function is from 0 to 44.

0 to 44 written in interval notation is [0,44].

The range is the acceptable values of y in the function.  In this case, y = A, the area given.  A(t) = 9t, so you can use the acceptable values of t to get the range.  Again, the minimum area is 0 because you can't have negative area. To find the maximum area, plug in the maximum number of tiles: 9.

A(t) = 9t

A = 9(44)

A = 396

With the maximum number of tiles, 44, the area you get is 396 cm².  Therefore, the acceptable values of A are from 0 to 396.

0 to 396 written in interval notation is [0, 396].
