Sorry that really confusing but i like your hand writing you did a really good job
Answer:
2x-y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
first, the easiest thing to do is multiply the whole thing by 3, since the fractions's denominators are the same.
you should get:
2x -y = 2
standard form formula = Ax + By = C
so luckily, the equation above we just solved is already in standard form after multiplying everything by 3
<em>remember</em><em> </em><em>that</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>standard</em><em> </em><em>form</em><em>, </em><em>A</em><em> </em><em>cannot</em><em> </em><em>be</em><em> </em><em>negative</em><em>, </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>we</em><em> </em><em>can't</em><em> </em><em>have </em><em>any</em><em> </em><em>fractions</em><em> </em><em>in</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>equation</em>
In order to find the number, we will need to set it up in an equation. In total, there are 460 students while 60% of them have pets. Lets set that up.
460(60%)
In order to correctly do this, we will need to transfer 60% into a decimal, which is .6. Now we will rewrite it.
460(.6)
This now can be represented by the number 276.Since we know that 276 is 60% of 460, The total number of students that have pets will be 276.
For P(t) = 920*1.06^(2t), the current population is 920, the percentage growth rate is 6% semiannually, and the population in 4 years will be 920*1.06^8 = 1466.
Selection B is appropriate.
_____
The 2 in the exponent means the growth factor 1.06 is applied twice for each increment of t, that is, twice in 1 year (semiannually).
It's really hard to tell for anyone who can't see the table.
Sadly, you've left ALL of us in that awkward status.
