Let: eq 1:2x+5y=-55
eq 2:y=3x+6
by substituting eq 2 in eq 1 we get,
2x+5(3x+6)=-55
2x+15x+30+55=0
17x + 85=0
x=-85/17
x=-5
By substituting x value in eq 2,
we have,
y=3(-5)+6=-15+6=-9
That’s the answer and i showed the work hoped this helped!!!
Please see below solution:
Let x = number of books that Bryan reads2x for amanda = Amanda 3x - 4 for Colin Amanda = 5/8(Bryan + Colin)2x = 5/8(x+3x-4)2x = 5/8(4x-4)
[16x = 5(4x-4)]816x = 20x - 20Subtract 20x from each side-4x =-20-4x/-4= -20/-4 divide -4 to eliminate the -4 in -4xx = 5
Therefore:
Bryan reads 5 books a month.
Since Amanda reads twice as many books a Bryan read so Amanda 10 books a month.
And Colin 11 books a month. 3(5) - 4 = 11
Answer:
- g = -1110p +4300.9
- 804 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Price is the independent variable, so the data we are given can be written as ...
(price, gallons) = (2.99, 982) and (2.79, 1204)
Using the 2-point form of the equation for a line, we have ...
g = (g2 -g1)/(p2 -p1)(p -p1) +g1
g = (1204 -982)/(2.79 -2.99)(p -2.99) +982
g = -1110(p -2.99) +982 = -1110p +4300.9
g = -1110p +4300.9
__
b) When p = 3.15, the predicted sales volume is ...
g = -1110(3.15) +4300.9 = 804.4
Weekly sales are predicted to be 804 gallons at a price of $3.15.
1:B, 2:A, 3:D, 4:A
those are the answers
