Solve using substitution technique; -3x+y=2, 12x-4y=-8

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The first equation is easier to solve for y than is the 2nd: y = 3x+2. Subst. 3x+2 for y in the second equation:


12x - 4(3x+2) = -8

Expanding, 12x =12x -8 = -8


This is always true, no matter the value of x. Thus, the solution set is "all real numbers."

Why is the answer to this C and not E. Don’t you usually keep the negative number negative? Why is this one not left negative?

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² = 7x - 3 ( subtract 7x - 3 from both sides )

x² - 7x + 3 = 0 ← in standard form

with a = 1, b = - 7, c = 3

Using the quadratic formula to solve for x

x = ( - (- 7) ± √((-7)^2-(4(1)(3)) ) / 2

  = ( 7 ± √(49-12) ) / 2

  = (7+/-√(37) )/(2) → C

a carnival snack booth made $76 selling popcorn in 1 day it made 22 times as much selling cotton candy. how much money did the snack booth make selling cotton candy?

Answers

The carnival made $1,672 selling cotton candy if a carnival snack booth made $76 selling popcorn in 1 day it made 22 times as much selling cotton candy.

What is an arithmetic operation?

It is defined as the operation in which we do the addition of numbers, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It has a basic four operators that is +, -, ×, and ÷.

It is given that:

A carnival snack booth made $76 selling popcorn in 1 day it made 22 times as much selling cotton candy.

= 76x22

= 1672

Thus, the carnival made $1,672 selling cotton candy if a carnival snack booth made $76 selling popcorn in 1 day it made 22 times as much selling cotton candy.

Can the y-values of a data set have both a common difference and a common ratio? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

No , the y-values of a data set cannot have both a common difference and a common ratio at the same time.

What is Arithmetic and geometric progression?

An arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers in which each term is derived from the preceding term by adding or subtracting a fixed number called the common difference "d"

Thus nth term of an AP series is Tn = a + (n - 1) d

d = common difference = Tₙ - Tₙ₋₁

Sum of first n terms of an AP: Sₙ = ( n/2 ) [ 2a + ( n- 1 ) d ]

A geometric progression is a sequence in which each term is derived by multiplying or dividing the preceding term by a fixed number called the common ratio.

The nth term of a GP is aₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

Given data ,

A common difference means that the difference between any two consecutive y-values in the data set is the same. For example, if the first y-value is 3 and the common difference is 2, then the second y-value would be 5 (3 + 2), the third y-value would be 7 (5 + 2), and so on. This creates a linear relationship between the y-values.

And , a common ratio means that the ratio between any two consecutive y-values in the data set is the same. For example, if the first y-value is 3 and the common ratio is 2, then the second y-value would be 6 (3 x 2), the third y-value would be 12 (6 x 2), and so on. This creates an exponential relationship between the y-values.

Hence , a linear relationship and an exponential relationship are different, it is not possible for the y-values of a data set to have both a common difference and a common ratio at the same time.

The number of students at Marita's high school decreased to 98% of last year's number. Currently, there are 1,170 students. How many students were there last year? Round to the nearest number

Answers

Answer:

1193

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of students decreased to 98% of last years total, the total students decrease by:

100-98=2

The amount of students decreased by 2% from the previous years total. We can then determine the amount of students that we 2% of the current total. We first convert 2% into a fraction:

2/100=1/50

Therefore:

1170*(1/50)=234/10=23.4

So in order to get this years total we must add 23.4 to this years total:

1170+23.4=1146.6≈1193

There were 1193 students last year

x=number of students at Marita's high school last year
98%=.98
.98x=1170
x=1170/.98
x=1194
