P(t) = 451400*0.968^t . . . . . models the population after t years.
_____
The multiplier from one year to the next is (1 -3.2%) = (1 -.032) = 0.968.
Substitution method is used to solve the linear system of equations for one or more variables.
Consider the first equation y = 3x + 3 -----(1)
In equation (1) plug in y=x-1, we get
x -1 = 3x + 3
Add -3x on both side , we get
x-3x -1 = 3x-3x +3
-2x-1=0 + 3
Now add +1 on both sides, we get
-2x-1+1= 3+1
-2x + 0 =4
Now divide both side by -2
-2x/-2= 4/-2
X= -2
Now put x=-2 in the the second equation,
y=x-1
y=(-2)-1
y=-3
Solution(-2,-3)
So for this, I will be doing the elimination method. Firstly, multiply both sides of the first equation by 2:
Next, add the two equations together to get 
. From here you can solve for x.
For this equation, just divide both sides by 8 and your first answer will be 
Now that we have the value of x, substitute it into either equation to solve for y:
<u>In short, the solution is (2,-5), or A.</u>
Marie has a small copy of Rene margrittes famous painting. The Schoolmasters. Her copy has dimensions of 2 inches by 1.5 inches. The scale of her copy is 1 inch:40 cm What is the dimensions of the original painting?
Every 1 inch on her copy is the same as 40 cm on the original.
You just have to multiply by 40 and convert to centimetres.
2 x 40 = 80
1.5 x 40 = 60
So the original painting is:
80cm by 60cm
31.288889,because hours have 60 min,1 min have 60 seconds so you will do 64/60=1.066666667/60=.0177777778
