The answer is C that can be the x-intercepts of the parabola
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of toys that each club member donated.
There are 9 students in a service club.
If each club member donated 4 children's books for the baskets, it means that the total number of books donated by the club members would be
9 × 4 = 36
If each club member also donated an equal number of toys. It means that the total number of toys donated by the club members would be
9 × x = 9x
A total of 63 items were collected for the baskets. Therefore, the linear equation that you can use to find how many toys each club member donated would be
9x + 36 = 63
A little tip: you should put the question in next time :)!
<span>In order to determine the value of the numbers, we can set up algebraic equations to solve. For this case, we need to set up two equations since we have two unknown numbers. We do as follows:
let x = first number and y = second number
From the problem statement, we set up equations.
Equation 1 - the numbers have a difference of 0.7
x - y = 0.7
Equation 2 - the numbers have a sum of 1
x + y = 1
Solving for x and y via substitution method,
x - y = 0.7
(1-y) - y = 0.7
1 - 2y = 0.7
-2y = 0.7 - 1 = -0.3
y = 0.15 or 3/20
x - 0.15 = 0.7
x = 0.85 or 17/20
Thus, the two numbers are 0.15 and 0.85.</span>
