Answer:

The test contains 10 three-point questions and 14 five-point questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can substitute a definition of one of the variables by rearranging the first equation.

We set the first equation equal to one of our two variables.

y = 24 - x

Now we substitute this equality into our second equation

3x + 5(24 - x) = 100

german

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the remainder of the question:

a. Who has more money after the first additional deposit? Explain.

b. Who has more money after the second additional deposit?

a. Amount put in savings account = $300

Leroi's amount after first week = $300 + $60 = $360

Sylvia's amount after first week = $300 + (20% × $300) = $300 + (0.2 × $300) = $300 + $60 = $360

They both have equal amount after the first week.

b. After the second deposit,

Leroi's saving = $360 + $60 = $420

Sylvia's saving = $360 + (20% × $360) = $360 + $72 = $432

Sylvia has more savings after the second week

Flock of birds is flying south, toward the equator, at an hourly rate. A scientist created the function f(x)=−60x+1320 to repres
lina2011 [118]

Answer: First and last option

The birds began 1320 miles from the equator.

The birds are flying toward the equator at a rate of 60 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the function f(x) is a linear function.

f (x) = - 60x + 1320

If x represents the number of hours and f(x) represents the distance from the equator, then x = 0 means that the first hour has not yet elapsed.

When x = 0 then:

f (0) = -60 * 0 +1320\\f (0) = 1320.

This means that the initial distance at which the birds of the equator are located is 1320 miles.

Then when x = 1 then:

f (x) = -60 * 1 + 1320\\f (x) = -60 +1320

When x = 2 then:

f (x) = -60 * 2 + 1320\\f (x) = -120 +1320

As x increases by one unit then the distance of the birds to the equator decreases by 60 miles. This means that birds travel at a speed of 60 miles per hour
