replace x and y by their value 1 and 3

3 = 4(1) - 1 = 4-1 = 3

2(1) + 3 = 2 + 3 = 5

correct

<u>M</u><u>e</u><u>t</u><u>h</u><u>o</u><u>d</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

y = 4x - 1

2x + y = 5

y = 4x - 1

y = -2x + 5

y - y = 4x - 1 - ( -2x + 5 )

0 = 4x - 1 + 2x - 5

6x - 6 = 0

6x = 6

x = 6/6 = 1

y = 4x - 1

y = 4(1) - 1

y = 3

correct

Answer:

The median value of the houses is $169,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the houses were undervalued by $15,000, add $15,000 to all amounts

154,000 + 15,000 = 169,000

133,000 + 15,000 = 148,000

167,000 + 15,000 = 182,000

145,000 + 15,000 = 160,000

180,000 + 15,000 = 195,000

172,000 + 15,000 = 187,000

149,000 + 15,000 = 164,000

To take the median of the data set, order the numbers from least to greatest

148,000   160,000   164,000   169,000   182,000   187,000   195,000

Eliminate one number from both sides until you reach one number

The number is 169,000
