Answer: x=4 and y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
We start eliminating the same numbers with the same variable. So we take out 5y on both equation. We then subract 3x to 6x and we do the same to the right side. We end up having 3x=12 and then we divide 12/3=4. We plug 4 on the x values in one of the equation to find out the y value on that equation. You end up with y=3 and then plug that in the same equation on both to see if its right. Finally after that its correct.
Answer:
- geometric sequence with initial value 20 and common ratio 1/2
- average rate of change on [1, 3] = -7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The given points have sequential values of x and values of y that are each 1/2 the value before. The common ratio tells us the sequence is a geometric sequence.
(b) The first given point is (2, 10), so extrapolating backward, we determine the previous point to be ...
... (2-1, 10/(1/2)) = (1, 20)
Thus, we have enough information to determine the average slope between n=1 and n=3.
... (difference in y)/(difference in n) = (5 -20)/(3 -1) = -15/2 = -7.5
I would help but i have no idea
25% or 2/4 and to win one game 50% or 1/2
