Answer:
<h2>See the explanation.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
It is told that, 330 students that are surveyed, are 9th graders.
Hence, 0.55 represents 330 students, that is 1 represents = 600 students.
The number of 9th grade students whose favorite elective is music is represented by 0.18.
1 ≡ 600
0.18 ≡ = 108.
The percentage of students whose favorite elective is home economics and are also in 10th grade is = 6%.
Ur gonna have to pick an equation and solve for a variable.
2x - 2y = 6
2x = 2y + 6 ...divide everything by 2 because u want x by itself
x = y + 3
now we sub y + 3 in for x in the other equation
14x - 2y = 78
14(y + 3) - 2y = 78...distribute thru the parenthesis
14y + 42 - 2y = 78...subtract 42 from both sides, cancelling the 42 on the left
-42 -42
-----------------------
14y - 2y = 36 ...simplify
12y = 36...divide by 12 on both sides, cancelling out the 12 on the left
y = 36/12
y = 3
now , we already know that x = y + 3...and we know y = 3...so sub in 3 for y and solve for x
x = y + 3
x = 3 + 3
x = 6
solution is (6,3)
it is always a good idea to check ur answer by subbing it into one or both of the equations to see if it is correct
2x - 2y = 6......(6,3)...x = 6 and y = 3
2(6) - 2(3) = 6
12 - 6 = 6
6 = 6 (correct)
so yes, ur solution is (6,3)
M and n are both numbers to this problem
Answer: Yes
Step-by-step explanation: We're going to have to substitute
in the coordinates of that ordered pair into the equation.
I am going to substitute in the x and substitute in the y.
So it's really 5(2) + 3(-3) = 1.
From here it should be pretty straightforward,
all we are doing is evaluating the statement.
Simplifying on the left we have 10 + -9 = 1 or 1 = 1.
Now we know that the ordered pair (2, -3) satisfies this equation.
