Answer:
(x, y) ≈ (2.848, -19.241)
Step-by-step explanation:
I find it much easier to work with the problem statement when math expressions are written using numbers and symbols. We assume you have ...
-4x +15y = -300
20x +4y = -20
Dividing the second equation by 4 and subtracting the x-term gives ...
y = -5-5x
Substituting that into the first equation, we get ...
-4x +15(-5-5x) = -300
-79x -75 = -300
x = -225/-79 = 2 67/79 ≈ 2.8481
Substituting this into the equation for y gives ...
y = -5(x +1) = -5(3 67/79) = -19 19/79 ≈ -19.2405
The approximate solution is ...
(x, y) = (2.8481, -19.2405)
1) pages per minute is the rate. the rate is the slope pages/minutes = .4
y=.4x or y=2/5(x)
2)birdhouses per day is the slope. = .6
y=.6x or y=3/5(x)
3) miles per hour is the slope. 500/8=62.5
y=62.5x
4) square feet per minute is the slope. 40/9 =4.444444444
y=4.4444444444x or y=40/9(x)
5)miles per minutes is the rate. 5/41 is the slope.
y=5/41(x)
6) the rate is square feet per minute. 450/30=15
y=15x

Answer:
Mean=8.8, Median=8
Step-by-step explanation:
How to find the mean:
First, add all the #'s up. 4+9+12+14+7+7=53
Then divide that by the number or numbers. In this case it is 6.
53/6=8.833... So rounded=8.8
Median:
List numbers lowest to highest
4, 7, 7, 9, 12, 14
Go to the middle number.
Since it is between 7 and 9, it is 7+9=16. 16/2=8
8 is the median
