Write a linear function that models each situation. a 24. The enrollment at a local community college was 5,000 in 1960. In the

year 2000, the enrollment was 15,000. Assuming that the enrollment grows linearly since 1960, write a linear equation that represents the enrollment of the college x years after 1960.​

Answer:

  y = 250x +5000

Step-by-step explanation:

The "initial" enrollment is 5000, when x=0 years after 1960.

The rate of change of enrollment is ...

  change of enrollment / change in time

  = (15000 -5000)/(2000 -1960)

  = 10000/40 = 250 . . . . students per year

Then the desired equation is ...

  y = 250x + 5000

could someone out there perhaps help me? i’m so lost even though it’s probably so simple. i’ll give you brainleist :)
Temka [501]

Answer:

y= -x+7, b= sqrt(2P/a), c=3P^2-b

Step-by-step explanation:

First, make a table regarding both of the equations. You will eventually find out that both lines intersect at the point (2, 5) after you find the points on the table. From there, subtract x from both sides in the equation x + y = 2. You will      get y = -x + 2. Since they said the line was parallel, find a line that has the slope of negative one. Since we know that this line intersects the point in which the first two lines intersect, we know that the y-intercept will be 7. The equation of the line would be y=-x+7.

Multiply both sides by 2. Then, divide both sides by a to get b^2=(2P/a). Take the square root to get the value of b, which is sqrt(2P/a).

Square both sides of the equation to get P^2=(b+c)/3. Cross multiply to get 3P^2=b+c. Subtract b from both sides to get c=3P^2-b.

Tickets to a concert cost $50 for each orchestra seat and $40 for each
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

H. the number of orchestra seat is 900

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

let the number of orchestra seat be x

and balcony seat be y

cost of orchestra= $50 each

cost of balcony =$40 each

total tickets= 1500

x+y= 1500----------1

amount earned= $69000

50x+40y=69000--------2

The system of equation for the situation is

x+y= 1500----------1

50x+40y=69000--------2

from 1, x=1500-y

put this in equation 2

50(1500-y)+40y=69000

75000-50y+40y=69000

-10y=69000-75000

-10y=-6000

divide both sides by -10

y=-6000/-10

y=600

put y= 600 in equation 1

x+600= 1500

x=1500-600

x=900
