Answer:
- f = -2/5a +14
- 12.4 ≈ 12 fish for 4 algae blooms
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2-point form of the equation for a line is useful when you are given two points to work with:
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
The independent variable (x) is apparently "algae blooms" and is to be represented by "a". The dependent variable (y) is "number of fish" and is to be represented by "f". So, we have ...
f = (4 -10)/(25 -10)(a -10) +10
f = -6/15(a -10) +10
f = -2/5a +14 . . . an equation for the scenario
Four a=4, the fish population is predicted to be ...
f = -2/5(4) +14 = 12.4
There will be about 12 fish when there are 4 algae blooms.
Answer:
-6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 3.6 = -2.9
x= -6.5
4) a. x+y=1–(1)
y=2x-8—(2)
(2) into (1)
x+(2x-8)=1
3x-8=1
3x=1+8
x=9/3
x=3—(3)
(3) into (2)
y=2(3)-8
y=-2
ans x=3, y=-2
b. x+y=19—(1)
y=5x+1—(2)
(2) into (1)
x+(5x+1)=19
6x+1=19
6x=19-1
x=18/6
x=3—(3)
(3) into (2)
y=5(3)+1
y=16
ans x=3, y=16
c.x+y=-2—(1)
y=x-10—(2)
(2) into (1)
x+(x-10)=-2
2x-10=-2
2x=-2+10
x=8/2
x=4–(3)
(3) into (2)
y=4-10
y=-6
ans x=4, y=-6
5) 3x=y—(1)
x=y-16–(2)
(2) into (1)
3(y-16)=y
3y-48=y
2y=48
y=48/2
y=24–(3)
(3) into (2)
x=24-16
x=8
ans x=8, y=24
Answer:
x=8.94 ; y = 1.58; z=2.02
Step-by-step explanation:
solve 10x+4y+12z = 120 → 5x+2y+6z = 60
8x + 2y +32Z = 160 → 4x+y+16z = 80
To eliminate z multiply first equation by 16 and second equation by 6.
80x+32y+96z = 960
24x+6y+96z = 480
on subtractionwe get 56x+26y = 480
dividing by 2 we get, 28x + 13y = 240
Now we have a given equation 11x + 77y = 220 → x + 7y = 20
solving 28x + 13y = 240 and x + 7y = 20
28x + 13y =240
28x + 216y = 560
subtracting we get, 203y = 320
y = 1.58
x = 8.94
z = 2.02
$0.53. Divide $2.12 by 4.
