It looks like your equations are
7M - 2t = -30
5t - 12M = 115
<u>Solving by substitution</u>
Solve either equation for one variable. For example,
7M - 2t = -30 ⇒ t = (7M + 30)/2
Substitute this into the other equation and solve for M.
5 × (7M + 30)/2 - 12M = 115
5 (7M + 30) - 24M = 230
35M + 150 - 24M = 230
11M = 80
M = 80/11
Now solve for t.
t = (7 × (80/11) + 30)/2
t = (560/11 + 30)/2
t = (890/11)/2
t = 445/11
<u>Solving by elimination</u>
Multiply both equations by an appropriate factor to make the coefficients of one of the variables sum to zero. For example,
7M - 2t = -30 ⇒ -10t + 35M = -150 … (multiply by 5)
5t - 12M = 115 ⇒ 10t - 24M = 230 … (multiply by 2)
Now combining the equations eliminates the t terms, and
(-10t + 35M) + (10t - 24M) = -150 + 230
11M = 80
M = 80/11
It follows that
7 × (80/11) - 2t = -30
560/11 - 2t = -30
2t = 890/11
t = 445/11
Answer:
$44,998.85
Step-by-step explanation:
Price of the car = $42,055
Tax = 7%
Total cost = Price of the car + amount of tax
= 42,055 + 7% of 42,055
= 42,055 + 7/100 * 42,055
= 42,055 + 0.07 * 42,055
= 42,055 + 2,943.85
= 44,998.85
Total cost = $44,998.85
Answer:
Strong negative correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
n the scatter plot attached below, as the variable in the x-axis increases, the variable on the y-axis decreases. Thus, if a line of best fit is drawn, it would show a line that slopes downwards to our right. This shows a negative correlation between both variables in the scatter plot.
Also, we also see that the data points represented on the scatter plot are clustered more closely along the slope, showing strong negative correlation.
Therefore, the phrase that best describes the scatter plot is: strong negative correlation.
Answer:
2y = -x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -1/2x + 7/2 (Multiply by 2)
2y = -x + 7
A quantity in a standard time or period maybe lol
