Step-by-step explanation:

Turkey is more popular

From the given information:

We are being informed that 9% of the people said turkey; &

7/100 said mashed potatoes.

The percentage of people that chose mashed potatoes = 7%

This implies that, in the given survey, the percentage of people who chose turkey is quite higher than those who chose mashed potatoes which makes turkey to be more popular.

From the set {6, 7, 11}, use substitution to determine which value of x makes the equation true.

kotykmax [81]

11 if you multiply 11 by both the number and and the variable you’ll get 11x-55=66. Add 55 to each side which will give you 121 then divide that by 11

Y=-x^2+2x+10<br> y=x+2<br><br> Substitution <br> Please show your work<br> Need ASAP

Answer:

The solutions of the system of equations are the points

$(\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2})$

$(\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2})$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$y=-x^{2} +2x+10$ ----> equation A

$y=x+2$ ----> equation B

Solve the system by substitution

substitute equation B in equation A

$x+2=-x^{2} +2x+10$

solve for x

$-x^{2} +2x+10-x-2=0$

$-x^{2} +x+8=0$

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$-x^{2} +x+8=0$

so

$a=-1\\b=1\\c=8$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{1^{2}-4(-1)(8)}} {2(-1)}$

$x=\frac{-1\pm\sqrt{33}} {-2}$

$x=\frac{-1+\sqrt{33}} {-2}$ -----> $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$x=\frac{-1-\sqrt{33}} {-2}$ -----> $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

<em>Find the values of y</em>

For $x=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$y=x+2$

$y=\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2}+2$ ----> $y=\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2}$

For $x=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

$y=x+2$

$y=\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2}+2$ ----> $y=\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2}$

therefore

The solutions of the system of equations are the points

$(\frac{1-\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5-\sqrt{33}} {2})$

$(\frac{1+\sqrt{33}} {2},\frac{5+\sqrt{33}} {2})$
