It is not a function because there can't be two of the same number on the x-axis.
Answer:
N+F=42 & F+3N=70 System Solved: Natalie is 14 and Fred is 28
Step-by-step explanation:
Using variables N=natalies age and F=Freds age
N+F=42 ----> N=42-F (take this and plug it into the other equation)
F+3N=70 so F+3(42-F)=70 [simplify] F+126-3F=70 [further simplify]
-2F=-56 [divide -56 by -2] F=28 [then plug this number into the orig. equation]
So N+28=42 or N=14.
Answer:
40.4502 billion dollars
51.3432 billion dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Total amount spent in billions in pets x years after year, 2000 ;
P(x)=2.1786x + 25.2
Amount spent in 2007 ;
x = 2007 - 2000 = 7 years
Put x = 7 in the equation :
P(7)=2.1786(7) + 25.2 = 40.4502
Amount spent in 2012 :
x = 2012 - 2000 = 12 years
Put x = 12 in the equation :
P(12) = 2.1786(12) + 25.2 = 51.3432
The amount spent in billik dollars on pets in :
2007 = $404502 billion
2012 = $51.3432 billion
The answer would be 18
Hope that helps.
