Step-by-step explanation:
is right?
The solution to this system set is: "x = 4" , "y = 0" ; or write as: [4, 0] .
________________________________________________________
Given:
________________________________________________________
y = - 4x + 16 ;
4y − x + 4 = 0 ;
________________________________________________________
"Solve the system using substitution" .
________________________________________________________
First, let us simplify the second equation given, to get rid of the "0" ;
→ 4y − x + 4 = 0 ;
Subtract "4" from each side of the equation ;
→ 4y − x + 4 − 4 = 0 − 4 ;
→ 4y − x = -4 ;
________________________________________________________
So, we can now rewrite the two (2) equations in the given system:
________________________________________________________
y = - 4x + 16 ; ===> Refer to this as "Equation 1" ;
4y − x = -4 ; ===> Refer to this as "Equation 2" ;
________________________________________________________
Solve for "x" and "y" ; using "substitution" :
________________________________________________________
We are given, as "Equation 1" ;
→ " y = - 4x + 16 " ;
_______________________________________________________
→ Plug in this value for [all of] the value[s] for "y" into {"Equation 2"} ;
to solve for "x" ; as follows:
_______________________________________________________
Note: "Equation 2" :
→ " 4y − x = - 4 " ;
_________________________________________________
Substitute the value for "y" {i.e., the value provided for "y"; in "Equation 1}" ;
for into the this [rewritten version of] "Equation 2" ;
→ and "rewrite the equation" ;
→ as follows:
_________________________________________________
→ " 4 (-4x + 16) − x = -4 " ;
_________________________________________________
Note the "distributive property" of multiplication :
_________________________________________________
a(b + c) = ab + ac ; AND:
a(b − c) = ab <span>− ac .
_________________________________________________
As such:
We have:
</span>
→ " 4 (-4x + 16) − x = - 4 " ;
_________________________________________________
AND:
→ "4 (-4x + 16) " = (4* -4x) + (4 *16) = " -16x + 64 " ;
_________________________________________________
Now, we can write the entire equation:
→ " -16x + 64 − x = - 4 " ;
Note: " - 16x − x = -16x − 1x = -17x " ;
→ " -17x + 64 = - 4 " ; Solve for "x" ;
Subtract "64" from EACH SIDE of the equation:
→ " -17x + 64 − 64 = - 4 − 64 " ;
to get:
→ " -17x = -68 " ;
Divide EACH side of the equation by "-17" ;
to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; & to solve for "x" ;
→ -17x / -17 = -68/ -17 ;
to get:
→ x = 4 ;
______________________________________
Now, Plug this value for "x" ; into "{Equation 1"} ;
which is: " y = -4x + 16" ; to solve for "y".
______________________________________
→ y = -4(4) + 16 ;
= -16 + 16 ;
→ y = 0 .
_________________________________________________________
The solution to this system set is: "x = 4" , "y = 0" ; or write as: [4, 0] .
_________________________________________________________
Now, let us check our answers—as directed in this very question itself ;
_________________________________________________________
→ Given the TWO (2) originally given equations in the system of equation; as they were originally rewitten;
→ Let us check;
→ For EACH of these 2 (TWO) equations; do these two equations hold true {i.e. do EACH SIDE of these equations have equal values on each side} ; when we "plug in" our obtained values of "4" (for "x") ; and "0" for "y" ??? ;
→ Consider the first equation given in our problem, as originally written in the system of equations:
→ " y = - 4x + 16 " ;
→ Substitute: "4" for "x" and "0" for "y" ; When done, are both sides equal?
→ "0 = ? -4(4) + 16 " ?? ; → "0 = ? -16 + 16 ?? " ; → Yes! ;
{Actually, that is how we obtained our value for "y" initially.}.
→ Now, let us check the other equation given—as originally written in this very question:
→ " 4y − x + 4 = ?? 0 ??? " ;
→ Let us "plug in" our obtained values into the equation;
{that is: "4" for the "x-value" ; & "0" for the "y-value" ;
→ to see if the "other side of the equation" {i.e., the "right-hand side"} holds true {i.e., in the case of this very equation—is equal to "0".}.
→ " 4(0) − 4 + 4 = ? 0 ?? " ;
→ " 0 − 4 + 4 = ? 0 ?? " ;
→ " - 4 + 4 = ? 0 ?? " ; Yes!
_____________________________________________________
→ As such, from "checking [our] answer (obtained values)" , we can be reasonably certain that our answer [obtained values] :
_____________________________________________________
→ "x = 4" and "y = 0" ; or; write as: [0, 4] ; are correct.

Answer:
64%
Step-by-step explanation:
The percentage of variation in the dependent variable explained by the estimated regression is calculated with the coefficient of correlation as follows:
First, square the coefficient of correlation: 0.8^2 = 0.64
And then, multiply this result by 100, so that, it is expressed as a percentage: 0.64*100 = 64%
Answer: The losing candidate got 1240 and the winning candidate got 1560.
Step-by-step explanation:
First divide the number of votes by the number of people: 2800/2= 1400.
add 160 to one candidate and subtract 160 from the other.
The geometric sequence is 
Explanation:
Given that the first term of the geometric sequence is 15
The fifth term of the sequence is 
We need to find the 2nd, 3rd and 4th term of the geometric sequence.
To find these terms, we need to know the common difference.
The common difference can be determined using the formula,
where 
and 
For 
, we have,
Simplifying, we have,
Thus, the common difference is
Now, we shall find the 2nd, 3rd and 4th terms by substituting 
in the formula
For 
Thus, the 2nd term of the sequence is 9
For 
, we have,
Thus, the 3rd term of the sequence is 
For 
, we have,
Thus, the 4th term of the sequence is 
Therefore, the geometric sequence is
