Answer:
(6,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Variable Definitions:
x= the number of commercials
y= the number of movies
Each commercial earns Emily $50, so x commercials would earn her 50x dollars in royalties. Each movie earns Emily $150, so y movies would earn her 150y dollars in royalties. Therefore, the total royalties 50x+150y equals $600:
50x+150y=600
Since Emily's songs were played on 3 times as many commercials as movies, if we multiply 3 by the number of movies, we will get the number of commercials, meaning x equals 3y.
x=3y
Write System of Equations:
50x+150y=600
x=3y
Solve for y in each equation:
1) 50x+150y=600
150y=−50x+600
y=-1/3x+4
2) x=3y
y=1/3x
The x variable represents the number of commercials and the yy variable represents the number of movies. Since the lines intersect at the point (6,2) we can say:
Emily's songs were played on 6 commercials and 2 movies.
Answer:
There are two rational roots for f(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a function
To find the number of rational roots for f(x).
Let us use remainder theorem that when
f(a) =0, (x-a) is a factor of f(x) or x=a is one solution.
Substitute 1 for x
f(1) = 1-2-5+6=0
Hence x=1 is one solution.
Let us try x=-1
f(-1) = 1-2-5+6 =0
So x =-1 is also a solution and x+1 is a factor
We can write f(x) by trial and error as
We find that 
factor gives two irrational solutions as
±√3.
Hence number of rational roots are 2.
Answer:
it's (A) - There are no solutions to the system because the equations represent parallel lines. Just took the quiz.
