Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the quotient is the result of division
let x represent the number
(x/2) + 3 = 7
Find the difference:
1400 - 1250 = 150
Divide the difference by the starting value:
150 / 1250 = 0.12
Multiply by 100:
0.12 x 100 = 12% increase.
(5, 3)
x y
Plug in:
x + y = 8
5 + 3 = 8
8 = 8
Plug in:
17(5) + 17(3) = 8
85 + 51 = 8
136 = 8
Answer - No, (5, 3) is not a solution to this system of equations.
