Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

elves in 1000 years = elves now x (rate of increase)^time

elves increase every century. there are ten years in a century. thus time = 1000/100 = 10 years

144 x (3)^10 =  8,503,056 elves

Which ordered pair (c, d) is the solution to the given system of linear equations?
sasho [114]

Answer:

(-1,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing part of this question is the system given as;

-c+2d=13

-9c-4d=-15

We solve for c in the top equation to get:

c=2d-13

Substitute c=2d-13 into the bottom equation to get:

-9(2d-13)-4d=-15

Expand to get:

-18d+117-4d=-15

Group similar terms to get:

-18d-4d=-15-117

-22d=-132

d=6

Put d=6 into c=2d-13 to get:

c=2*6-13

c=12-13=-1

The solution is (-1,6)

Slove for P. 5/7=p+4/7
Sever21 [200]
p= 1/7
Alright, so first, you need to flip the equation.<span><span>It will turn into p+<span>4/7</span></span>=<span>5/7
Next, you want to get the variable by itself so you need to subtract 4/7 from both sides. 5/7-4/7=1/7
p=1/7</span></span>
