Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A. both passes through (0,0) and has a constant change. X is going up by 1 every time and Y is going up 3 every time. This makes the graph a straight line

3х - 30 = у 7y - 6 = 3х

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This one is simple substitution... at least, substitution is the easiest method. The first equation is 3x – 30 = y and the second is 7y – 6 = 3x

As I look, I see 3 ways to use substitution to solve this:

substitute 7y – 6 for 3x
substitute 3x – 30 for y
solve 3x – 30 = y for 3x and make it equal to 7y – 6

We're going to only use 1 method for the sake of time. Try the other two on your own. Assuming you don't make any mistakes, they will work.

Method 1:

3x – 30 = y

7y – 6 = 3x — initial system of equations

7y – 6 – 30 = y — substitute 7y – 6 for 3x

7y – 6 – 30 = y — marking like terms, bold for constants, underlined for variables

7y – 36 = y — combining the constants and simplifying

Here, you could diverge into multiple paths: add 36 to both sides, subtract y from both sides, divide by 6 OR subtract 7y from both sides and divide by –6 . For the sake of time, I'm subtracting 7y, though I don't like dealing with negatives.

7y – 7y – 36 = y – 7y — subtract 7y from both sides

–36 = –6y — simplify

–36 ÷ –6 = –6y ÷ –6 — divide by –6 on both sides

y = 6 — simplify

Again, we can diverge here: substitute y into 3x – 30 = y or substitute y into 7y – 6 = 3x

I'm going to choose 3x – 30 = y but it will work either way, should you take the time (if you have it) to chase down every path this problem can take.

3x – 30 = y — initial equation

3x – 30 = 6 — substitute 6 for y

3x – 30 + 30 = 6 + 30 — add 30 to both sides to isolate 3x

3x = 36 — simplify the expression

3x ÷ 3 = 36 ÷ 3 — divide both sides by 3 to isolate x

x = 12 — simplify

So, we have x = 12 and y = 6 . We know they work for 3x – 30 = y but not if they work for 7y – 6 = 3x . Let's substitute those in to see if (12, 6) really is the solution point.

7y – 6 = 3x — original equation

7(6) – 6 ≟ 3(12) — substitute 6 for y and 12 for x

42 – 6 ≟ 36 — simplify by multiplying

36 = 36 ✔ — simplify by combining like terms on left side

Success! It works! We have found our solution!

I hope this helps increase your understanding of the concept. Have a great day!

Determine whether the value is a discrete random variable, continuous random variable, or not a random variable.

gulaghasi [49]

As a rule of thumb, a discrete random variable is countable.
A continuous random variable is measurable but not countable.

a. Discrete
The number of hits to a website is countable.

b. Continuous
The weight of a T-bone steak is measurable.

c. Discrete
The political party affiliations of adults are countable.

d. Discrete
The number of bald eagles in a country is countable.

e. Continuous
The amount of snowfall in December is measurable.

f. Discrete
The number of textbook authors is countable.
