Answer:
- The solution is (x, y) = (-2, 0)
- A graph is attached
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph shows the solution. The first equation has a y-intercept of -4 and a slope of -2, so will go through the point (-2, 0).
The second equation has a y-intercept of +4 and a slope of 2, so will go through the point (-2, 0).
Both equations have the same x-intercept, so that x-intercept is the solution to the system of equations.
Participants = 60
.
First round:
1/3 of 60 = 20
or
60 x 1/3
= 60/3
= 20
60 - 20 = 40
There are 20 participants that are eliminated on the first sound and 40 participants to move on to the second sound.
.
Participants = 40
Second round:
1/4 of 40 = 10
or
40 x 1/4
= 40/4
= 10
40 - 10 = 30
There are 10 participants that are eliminated on the second round and 30 participants that is moving on to the next round.
.
Participants = 30
Third round:
1/6 of 30 = 5
or
30 x 1/6
= 30/6
= 5
30 - 5 = 25
There are 5 participants that are eliminated on the third round and 25 participants to move on to the fourth round.
