Which graph is the solution to this system y-4x=-1y+x=4
natali 33 [55]

First, let's find the x and y intercepts

In the first equation

y - 4x = -1

Put x =0

y= - 1

(0, -1)

Put y=0 and the n solve for x

0 - 4x = -1

-4x = -1

x=0.25

(0.25 , 0)

The points for the first equation is (0, -1 ) and (0.25, 0)

Next is to find the intercts for the second equation

y + x = 4

put x=0

y = 4

(0, 4)

Put y =0

0 + x = 4

x = 4

( 4, 0)

The points for the second equation are;

(0, 4) and (4, 0)

Below is the graph

if a pound of grapes cost $0.14 in 1960 and the price of grapes increased at the same rate as the CPI from 1960 to 1980 by appro
masya89 [10]

The CPI increased from 29.6 to 82.4.  

The rate of increase, is:

82.4/29.6 = 2.78

Now multiply this rate to the $0.14 price of grapes from 1960.

$0.14 x 2.78 = $0.39

Now to get the amount of increase subtract the new price from the original price:

$0.39 - $0.14 = $0.25 increase.

These are the fees for sending a package by Media Mail:
Serga [27]
For first pound it is = $2.41
For next six, = 0.41 * 6 = $2.46

Remaining = 7.99 - (2.41 + 2.46) = 7.99 - 4.87 = 3.12

Now, additional pounds = 3.12 / 0.39 = 8
Total weight = 1 + 6 + 8 = 15

In short, Your Answer would be 15 pounds

Hope this helps!

7z + 7 = -7

Subtract 7 from both sides

7z = -14

Divide by 7

Z = -2
