Answer:
To find the number of genuine solutions for a system of equations consisting of a linear equation and a quadratic equation
1) With two variables, say x and y, rearrange the linear equation to express y, then substitute this y in the quadratic equation
After that, simplify the resulting equation and determine the number of real roots utilizing the quadratic formula, 
for equations of the type 0 = a·x² - b·x + c.
When b² exceeds 4·a·c, two real solutions emerge; if b² equals 4·a·c, there will be a single solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
The general equation for exponential decay characterized by a half-life (T) is expressed as N(t) = N_0(1/2)^(t/T), where N(t) signifies the amount remaining at time t, N_0 stands for the initial amount (at t=0), and T denotes the half-life of the substance. The half-life of carbon-14 is about 5,730 years. When starting with 6 mg of carbon-14, the equation for the remaining amount after t years would be established.
Jay's bread has risen to 220% of its initial size. The question, as it stands, is incomplete. What is missing would clarify: Jay's bread increases to 11/5 of its original size after three hours. To determine the percentage of its original size: New bread size = units when dough is at 11/5 of its original size.
