Answer:

  one solution (11, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Both equations describe curves with positive slope. The y-intercept of the line (-7) is less than that of the root function (-2), so the line must intersect the root function in exactly one place. There is one solution.

__

Solved in the conventional way, the equation would become a quadratic, with two solutions. One of them is extraneous. (That is why I prefer a graphical solution.)

Given ...

  x -y = 7

  y = √(3x +3) -2

We can substitute for y to get ...

  x -7 = √(3x +3) -2

  x -5 = √(3x +3)

  x^2 -10x +25 = 3x +3 . . . . . . square both sides

  x^2 -13x +22 = 0 = (x -11)(x -2) . . . . . gives solutions x=11, x=2

The value x=2 does not satisfy the equation ...

  x -7 = √(3x +3) -2   ⇒   2 -7 = √(3·2 +3) -2   ⇒   -5 = 1 (false)

What type of function y&lt;3x+5
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

  linear inequality (not a function)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is linear in the variables x and y. It maps x to an infinite number of possible values for y, so the relation is not a function.

Amanda wants to examine the eating habits of 100 random students at lunch to determine how many students eat in the cafeteria
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

well she can count up the average amount of tables, and the average amount of students in the school, later determine how many kids sit at the tables, for example, if there's five tables, and in each table there are five students, round those up and you have 25 students, only Amanda's answer would be much higher depending on the school and cafeteria
