You solve this by plugging one equation into the other. Usually you have to rewrite one equation to make this work. In this case I choose to rewrite y-4x=0 as y=4x.
After plugging it into the second, you get:
3x + 6*4x = 9 => 27x = 9 => x=1/3
Putting this solution back into y=4x gives us y=4/3
To find the mean you first add all the numbers up you get each day
12+16+0+8+31+28+17=112
Than you divided it by how many days there are...
112/7=16
So the mean is 16
Answer: C. Definition of an Altitude
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: In triangle MNO shown below, segment NP is an altitude from the right angle.
Let ∠MNP=x
Then ∠PNO=90°-x
Therefore in triangle MNO,
∠MPN=∠NPO =90° [by definition of Altitude]
[Definition of altitude : A line which passes through a vertex of a triangle, and joins the opposite side forming right angles. ]
Now using angle sum property in ΔMNP
∠MNP+∠MPN+∠PMN=180°
⇒x+90°+∠PMN=180°
⇒∠PMN=180°-90°-x
⇒∠PMN=90°-x
Now, in ΔMNO and ΔPNO
∠PMN=∠PNO=90°-x
and ∠MPN=∠NPO =90° [by definition of altitude]
Therefore by AA similarity postulate, we have
ΔMNO ≈ ΔPNO
Answer:
is the required equation.
Therefore, the second option is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation of a linear function is given by

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
Taking two points (0, -2) and (1, 0) from the table to determine the slope using the formula




substituting the point (0, -2) and the slope m=2 in the slope-intercept form to determine the y-intercept i.e. 'b'.




Now, substituting the values of m=2 and b=-2 in the slope-intercept form to determine the equation of a linear function



Thus,
is the required equation.
Therefore, the second option is true.
