There are 884 students enrolled at a certain college. the number of students from indiana is exactly three times the number of students from the rest of the country and abroad. write a pair of linear equations to represent the information. be sure to state what the variables represent. find the number of students who are from from indiana. show your work.

Let the no. Of students from Indiana be x

Let the no. Of students from the rest of the country and abroad be y

x = 3y (Given) (i)

x + y = 884 (Given) (ii)

Subtract equation (ii) from 1

x -3y = 0

-(x+y = 884)

-4y = -884

Therefore y = 221

Therefore no. Of students from the rest of the country and abroad is 221

Substituting the value of y in (i)

x = 3 x 221

Therefore x = 663

Therefore no. Of students from Indiana is 663

Hope this helps!

step-by-step explanation:

there has been genes found in the x chromosome of males that have been linked to [homo/hetero]sexuality. in addition to the reign of the x chromosome, a section of chromosome 8 has also been link to, "alot of ppl are so " these facts were proven true after a 2014 study of a gay male and his strait brother. according to newscientist.com,"chromosome 14 and is mainly active in the thyroid, but also the brain. called tshr, it makes a type of receptor protein that recognises and binds to a hormone that stimulates the thyroid. in this way, the gene plays an important role in controlling thyroid function. the fact that tshr seems to be involved in sexual orientation fits with evidence that thyroid function seems to be linked to sexuality."

in conclusion, "ppl are so gay" due to their genetics.
