Answer:
The reason for the columns adding up to 1 is that each individual consumes a proportion or a fraction of the total quantity produced under each product category and every product is consumed. There is no leftover.
When the proportions of all the individuals are added up, the sum is always 1 under each product category because each individual can only consume a part of the whole.

Answer:
(x, y) = (4, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator makes graphing very easy. The attachment shows the solution to be (x, y) = (4, -4).
__
The equations are in slope-intercept form, so it is convenient to start from the y-intercept and use the slope (rise/run) to find additional points on the line.
The first line can be drawn by staring at (0, -2) and moving down 1 grid unit for each 2 to the right.
The second line can be drawn by starting at (0, 2) and moving down 3 grid units for each 2 to the right.
The point of intersection of the lines, (4, -4), is the solution to the system of equations.
Volume = Length x Width x Height
V= 7.5 ft x 4.2 ft x w fr
The width is 2 as listed.
V= 7.5ft x 4.2ft x 2ft
V=63
5y - 3y + 12
Because there is not a common factor between the three terms in it's current state, we must simplify.
2y + 12
Now, we can simplify using the distributive property.
Factor 2.
<h3>2(y + 6) is the factored form of the original expression.</h3>
