Answer:
<em>Riley has 72 tokens</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations
</u>
We have two conditions for the tokens Riley and Erik have earned. Let's call x and y to the number of tokens of Riley and Erik respectively. The first condition states that
Solving for y
The second condition is that the ratio of the number of tokens that Riley had to the number of tokens that Erik has is 8 to 7. It's written as
Or equivalently
Replacing y from the first equation
Operating
Simplifying
Riley has 72 tokens
The lines are
i) y=-x+6
ii) y=2x-3
The solution of the system of equations is found by equalizing the 2 equations:
-x+6=2x-3
-2x-x=-6-3
-3x=-9
x=-9/(-3)=3
substitute x=3 in either i) or ii):
i) y=-3+6=3
ii) y=2(3)-3=6-3=3
(the result is the same, so checking one is enough)
This means that the point (3, 3) is a point which is in both lines, so a solution to the system.
In graphs, this means that the lines intersect at (3, 3) ONLY
Answer: The graph where the lines intersect at (3, 3)
Hey there!
D is the answer.
I was thinking it might be B but no one said the lines crossed each other.
Hope this helps, Jesus loves you!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Values less than 5 on a die are 1, 2, 3, 4 ← 4 values out of a possible 6
P( < 5) = = in simplest form
sub x=1 into f(x),
remainder= 1^3+2(1)^2-5(1)-6= -8
since remainder≠0, x=1 is not a root of the function
sub x=-1,
remainder = (-1)^3+2(-1)^2-5(-1)-6= 0
by remainder theorem,
x=-1 is a root of f(x)
hence, the correct ans is c
