Answer:
x = 71/5 (as an improper fraction)
x = 14 1/5 (as a proper fraction
x = 14.2 (as a decimal)
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a rectangle so the diagonals are equal
7x - 9 = 2x + 62
Subtract 2x from both sides
5x - 9 = 62
Add 9 to both sides
5x = 71
Divide both sides by 5
x = 71/5 (as an improper fraction)
x = 14 1/5 (as a proper fraction
x = 14.2 (as a decimal)
Input value= number of hours babysat, output value= how much money you get.
Let the fraction be 5/5
remaining= 50%*5/5-1/5= 2.5/5-1/5=1.5/5
percentage =1.5/5*100=30%
The answer C make more sense.
Remember that a quadratic equation is a parabola. The equation is of the type y = Ax^2 + Bx + C
A linear equation is a straight line. The equation is of the type y = MX + N
The soluction of that system is Ax^2 + Bx + C = MX + N
=> Ax^2 + (B-M)x + (C-N) = 0
That is a quadratic equation.
A quadratic equation may have 0, 1 or 2 real solutions. Those are all the possibilitis.
So you must select 0, 1 and 2.
You can also get to that conclusion if you draw a parabola and figure out now many point of it you can intersect with a straight line.
You will realize that depending of the straight line position it can intersect the parabola in none point, or one point or two points.
