A system of equations is shown: x + 3y = 5 (equation 1)
7x − 8y = 6 (equation 2)

A student wants to prove that if equation 2 is kept unchanged and equation 1 is replaced with the sum of equation 1 and a multiple of equation 2, the solution to the new system of equations is the same as the solution to the original system of equations. If equation 2 is multiplied by 1, which of the following steps should the student use for the proof?

The means and mean absolute deviations of the individual times of members on two 4x400-meter relay track teams are shown in the table below. means and mean absolute deviations of individual times of members of 4x400-meter relay track teams team a team b mean 59.32 s 59.1 s mean absolute deviation 1.5 s 245 what percent of team b's mean absolute deviation is the difference in the means? 9% 15% 25% 65%

David estimated he had about 20 fish in his pond. a year later, there were about 1.5 times as many fish. the year after that, the number of fish increased by a factor of 1.5 again. the number of fish is modeled by f(x)=20(1.5)^x. create a question you could ask that could be answered only by graphing or using a logarithm.

Graph the system of inequalities presented here on your own paper, then use your graph to answer the following questions: y > 2x + 3y is less than negative 3 over 2 times x minus 4part a: describe the graph of the system, including shading and the types of lines graphed. provide a description of the solution area. (6 points)part b: is the point (â’4, 6) included in the solution area for the system? justify your answer mathematically. (4 points)
