Answer:

<h2><em><u>x = -17.5</u></em></h2>

Explanation:

-8x = 140

  • Divide both sides by -8

-8x / -8 = 140 / -8

x = ⁻³⁵⁄₂

  • Simplify

x = -17.5

The population of Minnesota in thousands, t years since 2000 can be represented by P=37t+4934.
pychu [463]

Answer(A):

Given that the population of Minnesota in thousands, t years since 2000 can be represented by equation:

P=37t+4934

P-intercept means value of P when t=0

P=37*0+4934

P=0+4934

P=4934

Hence P-intercept is 4934. Which means that population of Minnesota in year 2000 was 4934.


Answer(B):

t-intercept means value of t when P=0

0=37t+4934

-4934=37t

divide by 37

-4934/37=t

-133.351351351 = t

Hence t-intercept is -4934/37 which is approx -133. Which means that population of Minnesota in year (2000-133) that is in year 1867 was 0.

1. Solve the equation.
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

1. -3

2. -12

3. 20

4. -15

5. 6

6. -15w+5

7. 10

8. C<-26

9.p> -40

10. P> 16

Step-by-step explanation:

~ -9p -17 = 10

-9p = 27

P = -3

~ x/4 -5 = -8

x/4 = -3

x = -12

~ p/5 +6 =10

p/5 = 4

p = 20

~ -2(m-30) =-6m

-2m+60=-6m

4m = -60

m = -15

~ 3n +2=8+2n

n = 6

Write an equation for each linear function described. Show your work. The graph of the function passes through the point (2,1),
svp [43]

Step-by-step explanation:

As

  • The graph of the function passes through the point (2,1), and
  • y increases by 4 when x increases by 1.

so

x             y

2             1

3             5

4             9

5             13

6             17

and so on

From the table:

\mathrm{Slope\:between\:two\:points}:\quad \mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(2,\:1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(3,\:5\right)

m=\frac{5-1}{3-2}

m=4

As the slope-intercept form of the line is

y=mx+b

putting m=4 and any point, let say (2, 1) to find y-intercept 'b'.

1=\left(4\right)2+b

8+b=1

8+b-8=1-8

b=-7

So putting b=-7 and m=4  in the slope-intercept form of the line

y=\left(4\right)x+\left(-7\right)

y=4x-7

Therefore, the equation for the linear function will be:

y=4x-7
