Answer:

The system of equations best represents the situation

x + y = 17,000.... Equation 1

0.025x + 0.065y = 550... Equation 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x represent the amount of money invested in the first account and

y represent the amount of money invested in the second account.

We are told that:

Tyrone had $17,000 to invest.

Hence,

x + y = $17,000

x + y = 17,000..... Equation 1

We also known that:

He invested part of that amount at 2.5% annual interest for one year and the other part at 6.5% annual interest for one year. The amount of interest earned for both investments was $550

The formula for Interest =

Principal(Amount invested) × Rate × Time.

Hence:

25% × x + 6.5% × y = 550

0.025x + 0.065y = 550... Equation 2

The system of equations best represents the situation

x + y = 17,000.... Equation 1

0.025x + 0.065y = 550... Equation 2

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

a. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

An independent variable is the variable that is changed in an experiment to test its effects on the dependent variable. i.e. inputs

A dependent variable is the variable being tested, measured or predicted in an experiment. I.e a outcome

In this case, the the effects of the amount tutors are paid a week before exam, the amount of sleep before exam and the number of study hours are input variables to determine or predict a students score in exam

The independent variables are;

x1 =represents the amount paid to a tutor (in dollars) in the week before the exam

x2 = represents the number of hours of sleep in the week before the exam

x3 = number of study hours in the week before the exam

The dependent variable is the exam score

B0, B1, B2,B3, B4 are coefficients

What has a steeper line y=2x-3 or x-5y=20
Montano1993 [528]
Y=2x-3 has a steeper line because the bigger the slope, the more it goes up on the y-axis for every one spot on the x-axis. 
The first one goes up 2 spaces for every one it goes over, and the second one goes up one space for every 5 it goes over
