Tell whether the ordered pair is a solution of the equation y=5x; (15,-3)

Mathematics

3 0

Answer:

This ordered pair is NOT a solution of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, it is important to note that ordered pairs consist of (x, y) so in this case

x = 15 and y = -3.  And that any variable directly next to a number calls for multiplication.  So, plugging in the variables the equation would look like

"-3 = 5 x 15"  

To see if 5 x 15 = -3 we will multiply them.  5 x 15 actually equals 75 not -3.  So we know this ordered pair is NOT the solution for the problem.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Number of people employed this year = 373

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of employees this year = x

These employees were decreased by 4% then the remaining number of employees this year = x - (4% of x)

= x - 0.04x

= 0.96x

If last year number of people employed were 389 then the number of people employed this year = 0.96×389

= 373.44

When rounded to whole number, number of people employed this year = 373.
