Authenticity builds trust and when team members trust a leader, they strive to support the mission and the leader.

Assignment Solution: System of Equations

1. Understanding Systems of Equations

A system of equations is defined as two or more equations that share the same set of unknowns or variables. This definition leads to the conclusion that multiple equations can represent relationships among the same variables in a variety of contexts, such as linear, nonlinear, or polynomial relationships (Carlson et al., 2020). The system can be represented algebraically and graphically, allowing for the exploration of solutions based on the relationships defined by the equations.

1a. Key Concepts

1. A system of equations: Has two or more equations with the same set of unknowns.
2. The system of two linear equations with two unknowns can be solved by: All of the above (Elimination, Substitution, Graphing).
3. The system of two linear equations and three unknowns can be solved by: It cannot be solved uniquely (as there are infinitely many solutions).
4. A system has as many equations as there are variables: False, as a system can have variables without being equal to the number of equations.
5. For the given equations (x + y = 1 and -2x + 4y = 6):
Solving these provides: X = 1/3, y = 4/3.
6. The matrix form given is True, signifying the relationships between the equations.

2. Economic Modeling: Cost of Pollution Removal

The cost C (in millions of dollars) of removing p% of the industrial and municipal pollutants discharged into a river is generally represented as a nonlinear function. As the percentage approaches 100%, the cleaning process often becomes exponentially more expensive due to reaching the most challenging pollutants last. This principle reveals that while striving for a significant reduction in pollutants is possible, removing 100% is likely infeasible due to economic and practical limitations (Graham & Hazard, 2018).

(variable c) and for adults is (variable a). Given that 2000 people attended and a total of 00 was collected, we can create a system of equations:
1. c + a = 2000 (Equations represent the total number of children and adults)
2. 2c + 4a = 5000 (This equation represents total revenue collected)

4. Solution for Fair Attendance

To find the number of children attending the county fair, we solve the system of equations using substitution or elimination methods. By simplifying equation 1:
From c + a = 2000, we deduce c = 2000 - a.
Substituting into equation 2:
2(2000 - a) + 4a = 5000
This yields:
4000 - 2a + 4a = 5000
Combining terms gives:
2a = 1000
Thus, a = 500 (number of adults). Consequently, substituting back to find c:
c = 2000 - 500 = 1500 (number of children).

5. Evaluating Functions: Profit Maximization in Advertising

The profit function defined by P(x) = 230 + 40x - 0.5x^2 represents a quadratic equation. We need to find the maximum profit point, achieved at the vertex of the parabola, which occurs at x = -b/2a. Here, a = -0.5 and b = 40:
\[
x = \frac{-40}{2 \times -0.5} = 40
\]
Thus, an expenditure of 00 (since x is in hundreds) will yield the maximum profit.

6. Exponential Forms and Evaluating Hormonal Concentrations

For the logarithmic equation log2 16 = 4, converting to exponential form gives:
\[
2^4 = 16
\]
When studying the concentration of medication in a bloodstream, if the model is for concentration over time (e.g., a decay function), evaluation after 10 hours can similarly be calculated based on the decay constant given (Cheng & Hsu, 2019).
The pH of an acid solution with an H+ concentration of \(10^{-7}\) can be derived from the formula:
\[
pH = -log[H^+]
\]
Thus,
\[
pH = -log(10^{-7}) = 7
\]

7. Streaming Service Costs

For the streaming service, we describe the total cost (C) as:
\[
C = 75 + 1.5x
\]
Where x is the number of movies streamed. This linear equation is essential for determining the total annual expenditure based on streaming choices (Miller, 2022).

8. Matrix Representation

Expressing a matrix as a system of equations often requires translating rows of matrix entries into algebraic equations, ensuring clarity in dependency and solution extraction. For example, a matrix might represent coefficients in a 2-by-2 system corresponding to unique and dependent variables (Patel & Jain, 2021).

9. Solving Simple Equations

Lastly, solving \(4x = 16\) is straightforward:
\[
x = \frac{16}{4} = 4
\]

Conclusion

Systems of equations serve as foundational stepping stones for various applications in economics, environmental science, healthcare, and beyond. Mastery of these concepts, including functions, logarithmic transformations, and matrices, provides a comprehensive framework applicable across multiple fields.
