Lin is solving this system of equations:
She starts by rearranging the second equation to isolate the y variable: y=4-1.5x. She then substituted the expression 4-1.5x for y in the first equation, as shown:
Check to see if Lin's solution of (-36,58) makes both equations in the system true.

If your answer to the previous question is "no," find and explain her mistake. If your answer is "yes," graph the equations to verify the solution of the system.

Tyler and Han are trying to solve this system by substitution:
Tyler's first step is to isolate x in the first equation to get x=-5-3y. Han's first step is to isolate 3y in the first equation to get 3y=-5-x.
Show that both first steps can be used to solve the system and will yield the same solution.

The dot plots show the distribution of the length, in centimeters, of 25 shark teeth for an extinct species of shark and the length, in centimeters, of 25 shark teeth for a closely related shark species that is still living.


Compare the two dot plots using the shape of the distribution, measures of center, and measures of variability.

Use the situation described in the problem in your explanation.
