Solving the equations by graphing requires plotting the given functions.
y=x^2-3
x-y=1
thus the plot will be as shown in the picture. The solutions are:
(-2,-1) and (2,1)
First, construct two equations.
Then, equal the two equations to each other like this -
x will be the years.
Type A. Type B
3x + 15 = 4x + 10
- 15. - 15
3x = 4x - 5
-4x. -4x
-x = -5
-x/-1 = -5/-1
x = 5
Check:
3(5) + 15 = 4(5) + 10
15 + 15 = 20 + 10
30 = 30
Therefore, the trees will be the same height in 5 years.
Answer:
x = cost of each gift basket = $14.5
y = one time delivery fee = $135
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = cost of each gift basket
y = one time delivery fee
40x + y = 715 (1)
400x + y = 5935 (2)
Subtract (1) from (2)
400x - 40x = 5935 - 715
360x = 5220
x = 5220/360
x = 14.5
Substitute x = 14.5 into (1)
40x + y = 715 (1)
40(14.5) + y = 715
580 + y = 715
y = 715 - 580
y = 135
x = cost of each gift basket = $14.5
y = one time delivery fee = $135
You can write both numbers as fractions:
Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its inverse, so we have
We can cross-simplify the 10's and we have
