Answer:
432 people on Friday and 658 on Saturday
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets use variables for each day
x=Friday and y=Saturday
now write two equations since you were given two different information (money and people)
$6 on Friday and $8 on Saturday with a total amount of $7856
the equation will be 6x+8y=7856
now the second equation will be for people
x amount of people on Friday and y amount of people on saturday for a total of 1090; the equation will be
x+y=1090
put them together
6x+8y=7856
x+y=1090
now you can cancel a variable but manipulating one of the equations. We'll use x, to cancel x you need make it zero so multiply the bottom by -6
6x+8y=7856
-6(x+y=1090)
6x+8y=7856 now subtract downwards, with the x cancelling
-6x-6y=-6540
2y=1316 simplify
(2y/2)=(1316/2)
y=658
insert y into x+y=1090
x+(658)=1090
-658 -658
x=432
Just look at the x axis (horizontal) and see where x=1 or go 1 unit from the origin (0,0), then go up untill you hit a point that coresponds witha y value which looks to be 2 so coresponding y for x=1 is y=2
if we are given point (1,2) then
(x,y)
x=1
y=2
that is the solution already
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Quadratic function is given as 
Let's find a, b and c:
Substituting (0, 6):
Now that we know the value of c, let's derive 2 system of equations we would use to solve for a and b simultaneously as follows.
Substituting (2, 16), and c = 6
=> (Equation 1)
Substituting (3, 33), and c = 6
=> (Equation 2)
Subtract equation 1 from equation 2 to solve simultaneously for a and b.
Replace a with 4 in equation 2.
The quadratic function that represents the given 3 points would be as follows:
There are 9 long distance male runners and 5 long distance female runners. This makes a total of 9+5 = 14 long distance runners.
Out of this total of 14 long distance runners, there are 9 males. So the probability as a fraction is 9/14
If you need the answer in decimal form, then use a calculator to get 9/14 = 0.642857 which is approximate.
