Ok , with that information we can write the equations
x + y = 6
5x + 4y = 28
Where x = how many people ordered chicken
and y = how many people ordered egg salad
Through elimination , we can set one of the variables in both equations equal so we can eliminate it :
(4)x + (4)y = (4)6
5x + 4y = 28
4x + 4y = 24. equation 1
5x + 4y = 28. equation 2
Now we can subtract the second equation by the first equation and isolate one variable:
equation 2 - equation 1
5x - 4x + 4y - 4y = 28 - 24
x = 4
Now that we discovered our x value ( How many people ordered chicken salad ) , we can apply it to one of the equations and discover y ( how many people ordered egg salad)
x + y = 6
x= 4
4 + y = 6
We can shift 4 to the other side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation:
4 - 4 + y = 6 - 4
y = 2
x=4 and y=2
So the awnser is :
4 people ordered chicken salad and 2 people ordered egg salad!
I hope you understood my brief explanation!!
p.s if you want to know how to use another method to solve these problems ( Substition) , just let me know in a comentary down here
Answer:
44.2 years
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume the interest is compounded annually and the investment is a one-time deposit into the account, its value each year is multiplied by 1+6.25% = 1.0625. After n years, the value in the account will be ...
19000 = 1300·1.0625^n
Dividing by 1300 and taking logs, we have ...
log(19000/1300) = n·log(1.0625)
log(190/13)/log(1.0625) = n ≈ 44.24 . . . . years
It will take about 44.2 years for the account to reach $19,000.
Since in a pass code, the placement of the digits is
important, therefore this means that to solve for the total number of
possibilities we have to make use of the principle of Permutation. The formula
for calculating the total number of possibilities using Permutation is given
as:
P = n! / (n – r)!
where,
n = is the total amount of numbers to choose from = 20
r = is the total number of digits needed in the passcode =
4
Therefore solving for the total possibilities P:
P = 20! / (20 – 4)!
P = 20! / 16!
P = 116,280
<span>Hence there are a total of 116,280 possibilities of pass
codes.</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I really hope you know how to use your calculator to find regression equations, because in this forum it is impossible to teach you how to do that. I ran the data through my calculator and got the exponential equation as
which means at 4 hours, we started with 1963 bacteria and it is growing at a rate of 114% each hour. Since we started out with an x value of 0, and that value represents the number of bacteria after 4 hours, then time 0 is 4 hours, which means that time 12 is 16 hours. We replace the x in the equation with a 12 and do the math:
which gives us, in the end,
y = 9460
