Substitute y = -x into the first equation:

-8x - 7(-x) = -5

-8x + 7x = -5

-x = -5

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into y = -x

y = -(5)

y = -5

Answer: x = 5, y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x -7y + 5 = 0

y = -x

substituting this value, we get:

-8x -7(-x) +5= 0

-8x +7x + 5 =0

-x +5=0

5 = x

substituting this value in the equation, we get:

-8(5) -7y + 5 = 0

-40 -7y +5=0

-35 -7y =0

7y = -35

y = -35/7

y = -5

Answer:

(a) 74553

(b) 172120

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259t}}$

Solving (a): 1998

Year 1998 means that:

$t =1998 - 1980$

$t =18$

So, we have:

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259*18}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-4.662}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 3.562}$

$y = \frac{340110}{4.562}$

$y = 74553$ --- approximated

Solving (b): 2003

Year 2003 means that:

$t = 2003 - 1980$

$t =23$

So, we have:

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259*23}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-5.957}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 0.976}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1.976}$

$y = 172120$ --- approximated

Solving (c): 2006

Year 2006 means that:

$t = 2006 - 1980$

$t =26$

So, we have:

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-0.259*26}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 377e^{-6.734}}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1 + 0.4485}$

$y = \frac{340110}{1.4485}$

$y = 234802$ --- approximated

Mr. Khans is buying staplers for his office. Each stapler costs $16.99. Write A Function to Represent this situation.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Since each stapler costs 16.99, the total cost is 16.99*x, with x representing the number of staplers bought. This works due to that he adds 16.99 for every stapler, and multiplying it adds 16.99 each time he buys a new stapler

Can you please explain ME how to solve identity of algebra homework

yKpoI14uk [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

"identity" means an operation that does nothing.

For adding numbers, adding 0 changes nothing, so 0 is the identity for addition.

For multiplication, multiplying by 1 changes nothing, so 1 is the identity for multiplication.
