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

Find the centroid for an area defined by the equations y = x² + 3 and y = - (x – 2)² + 7
sergeinik [125]
First we need to find where the 2 graphs intercept.

x^2 + 3 = - (x^2 - 4x + 4) + 7
x^2 + 3 = -x^2 + 4x + 3
2x^2 - 4x = 0 
2x(x - 2)

x = 0 , 2. are x coordinates  of the 2 intercepts.

What are the mean and the mode of the following set of data: 5, 12, 1, 5, 7
Alika [10]
Mean: so basically you add up all the numbers (5+12+1+5+7=30) and divide the sum (30) with how many numbers there are (5) so 30/5=6

mode: mode is numbers repeated, since there are two 5's it is the mode (you may also have multiple modes)
