2=4(-3) + b
2= -12 + b
14= b
Y=4x + 14
By elimination:
y = 3x - 1
y = 2x + 2
Subtract the second equation from the first
0 = x - 1
y = 2x + 2
Subtract the first equation from the second
0 = x - 1
y = x + 3
Subtract the first equation from the second again
0 = x - 1
y = 4
Subtract x from both sides of the first equation
- x = - 1
y = 4
Divide the first equation by (-1)
x = 1
y = 4
<h3>
So, the solution is x = 1 and y = 4 {or: (1, 4)}</h3>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The last (fourth) graph is that of the parent function y = √x. The negative sign in front of √x leads to reflection of this parent function graph in the x-axis. Thus, the correct graph of f(x) = -√x is the first one.
Answer:
5 months
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate the formulas for the weights of the two boys:
J's weight = 120 lb + (10 lb/mo)m = D's weight = 150 lb + (4 lb/mo)m
Solve as follows: Subtract 120 lb from both sides:
(10 lb/mo)m = 30 lb + (4 lb/mo)m.
Then: (6 lb/mo)m = 30 lb, and m = (30 lb) / (6 lb/mo) = 5 months
