Answer:
a)
Lowell: 4 counselors
Fairview: 9 counselors
b)
2 new counselors
Step-by-step explanation:
How many counselors should be assigned to each school using Hamilton's method?
Number of students
Lowell: 3584
Fairview: 6816
Total number of students: 10400
Divisor D = (Total number of students)/(number of counselors)= 10400/13 = 800
<u>Temporal assignment</u>
3584/800 = 4 + 0.48 ==> 4 counselors for Lowell
6816/800 = 8 + 0.52 ==> 8 counselors for Fairview
There is one counselor left. According to Hamilton's method she should be assigned to the school with the largest remainder, that is Fairview.
<u>Final assignment</u>
Lowell: 4 counselors
Fairview: 9 counselors
The next year, a new school is opened, with 1824 students. Using the divisor from above, determine how many additional counselors should be hired for the new school
1824/800 = 2 + 0.28
<em>Two new counselors should be hired.</em>
Answer:
4x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0.
Step-by-step explanation:
We first write it in factor form.
4(x - 1)(x + 3) = 0
4(x^2 + 2x - 3) = 0
4x^2 + 8x - 12 = 0 (answer).

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the system:

If we isolate the x-variable in the first equation:

Subtract 2y from both sides:

Divide both sides by -1:

Therefore, we would substitute the above into the second equation:

The answer is 2y+6
Further notes:
To solve for the system, distribute:

Simplify:

Subtract:

Divide:

Now, substitute this value back into the isolated equation:
