Which ordered pair is a solution of the system of a linear equation below? Y= 1/4x +2 y= x-1

Tanya [424]

Answer: x = 4, y = 3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

$y=\dfrac{1}{4}x+2$ and $y=x-1$

Using substitution method we get:

$x-1=\dfrac{1}{4}x+2\\\\\text{subtract}\ \dfrac{1}{4}x\ \text{from both sides}\rightarrow \dfrac{3}{4}x-1=2\\\\\text{add 1 to both sides}\rightarrow \dfrac{3}{4}x=3\\\\\text{multiply both sides by 4}\rightarrow 3x=12\\\\\text{divide both sides by 3}\rightarrow x=4\\\\\text{Insert x = 4 into one of the original equations to solve for y:}\\y=x-1\\y =(4)-1\\y=3$

an Carlos County Health Department reported 17 new cases of tuberculosis in the first half of 2001 and 18 additional cases durin

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

San Carlos County

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Number of cases of tuberculosis reported in the first half of 2001 = 17

Number of cases of tuberculosis reported in the second half = 18

Total number of cases reported = 35 (17 + 18)

Population of the county at the beginning of 2001 = 204,500

Population of the county at the end of the year = 215,000

Average population for the year = 209,750 (204,500 + 215,000)/2

Therefore, the incidence rate of tuberculosis in the county = 35/209,750 * 100

= 0.000167

b) Since the incidence rate is <1, it suggests that the population of San Carlos County is at a very reduced risk of exposure to tuberculosis. This means that only 1 in 6,000 (209,750/35) people are exposed to the disease in the county.
