Tommy was trying to solve the system of a linear equation and a quadratic equation shown below. 2x – y = –1 x2 – 5x – y = –7 Tom

my had completed the following steps in his algebraic solution process but could not factor the resulting quadratic, x2 – 7x – 1, to complete the problem. Step I: y = 2x + 1 Step II: x2 – 5x – (2x + 1) = –7 Step III: x2 – 5x – 2x – 1 = –7 Step IV: x2 – 7x – 1 = –7 Determine the step in which Tommy made his mistake and justify your reasoning.

romanna [79]

Employees salary [$}: 30,000, 30,000, 35,000, 35,000, 40,000, 40,000.

CEO Salary: $70,000.

The correct answer is this: BOTH JAN AND MARCY ARE CORRECT.

Jan says the employee average salary is $35,000. This is correct as shown below:

Average employee salary = 30,000 + 30,000 + 35,000 +35,000 + 40,000 + 40,000 / 6 = 210 / 6 =  $35,000.

Marcy says the average salary of all company members is $40,000. This is also true as shown below.

Average salary of all company members = 30,000 + 30,000 +35,000 + 35,000 + 40,000 + 40,000 + 70,000 / 7 = 280 / 7 = $40,000.
