In 2014 , 2277 was 110% of 2013.

Number in 2013 = 90% of the year before (2012)

Let the number in 2013 be x. From the first statement,

2277 = 110% of x

2277 = (110/100)x

2277 = 1.10x

x = 2277/1.1 = 2070

Number in 2013 is 2070

Number in 2013 = 90% Number in 2012

2070 = (90/100) * Number in 2012

2070 = 0.90 * Number in 2012

2070 / 0.90    = Number in 2012

2300  = Number in 2012

Number in 2012  =  2300

When analyzing three linear functions, Michele noticed that they all intersected at the point (5, 3). What conclusion can Michel
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer: option B. it has the highest y-intercept.

Explanation:

1) point -slope equation of the line

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

2) Replace (x₁, y₁) with the point (5,3):

y - 5 = m (x - 3)

3) Expand using distributive property and simplify:

y - 5 = mx - 3m ⇒ y = mx + 5 - 3m

4) Compare with the slope-intercept equation of the line: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

⇒ slope = m

⇒ b = 5 - 3m = y - intercept.

Therefore, for the same point (5,3), the greater m (the slope of the line) the less b (the y-intercept); and the smaller m (the slope) the greater the y - intercept.

Then, the conclusion is: the linear function with the smallest slope has the highest y-intercept (option B).

Which shows solutions to X+4y=9 if X and y must be whole numbers? A. {(0,9)(1,5)(2,1)} B.{(2,1)(1,6)(0,9)} C.{(1,2)(5,1)(9,0) D.
Dafna11 [192]
The answer here is C. Let's proof.

Since we are dealing with whole numbers, select a constant for x to satisfy that y will result a whole number.
If x = 1, then the function would be 1 + 4y = 9. Solving for y,
4y = 9 - 1
4y = 8
y = 2
In ordered pair, that is (1,2)

Next, if x = 5, then 5 + 4y = 9. Solving for y,
4y = 9 - 5
4y = 4
y = 1
In ordered pair, that is (5,1).

Lastly, if x = 9, then 9 + 4y = 9. Solving for y,
4y = 9 - 9
y = 0/4
y = 0
In order pair, that is (9,0).
