Question
The following table shows some data from a study on substance use among 10th graders in the United States and Europe.
Smoked Cigarettes | Cigarette-Free | Totals | |
---|---|---|---|
U.S. | x | y | 12,000 |
Europe | z | w | 98,000 |
Total | 65,210 | 110,000 |
(a)
The table leads to a linear system of four equations in four unknowns. What is the system?
x | + | y | = | 12,000 | ||||
y | + | w | = | 98,000 | ||||
z | + | w | = | 65,210 | ||||
x | + | w | = | 110,000 | ||||
|
x | + | y | = | 12,000 | ||||
z | + | w | = | 98,000 | ||||
y | + | w | = | 65,210 | ||||
x | + | w | = | 110,000 | ||||
|
x | + | y | = | 12,000 | ||||
z | + | w | = | 98,000 | ||||
y | + | w | = | 65,210 | ||||
x | + | y | + | z | + | w | = | 110,000 |
|
x | + | y | = | 12,000 | ||||
y | + | w | = | 98,000 | ||||
z | + | w | = | 65,210 | ||||
x | + | y | + | z | + | w | = | 110,000 |
