The correct answer is:  [B]:  " (2, 5) ".
__________________________________________
Given:
__________________________________________
  -5x + y = -5 ;
  -4x + 2y = 2 .
___________________________________________
  Consider the first equation:
___________________________
-5x + y = -5 ;  ↔ y + (-5x) = -5 ;

↔ y - 5x = -5 ;  Add "5x" to each side of the equation; to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve in terms of "y".
_____________________________________________
   y - 5x + 5x = -5 + 5x  

   y = -5 + 5x ;  ↔ y = 5x - 5 ;
____________________________________________
 Now, take our second equation:
______________________________
     -4x + 2y = 2 ; and plug in "(5x - 5)" for "y" ;  and solve for "x" :
_____________________________________________________
         -4x + 2(5x - 5) = 2 ; 
______________________________________________________
Note, 2(5x - 5) = 2(5x) - 2(5)  = 10x - 10 ;
__________________________________________
So:   -4x + 10x - 10 = 2 ;

On the left-hand side of the equation, combine the "like terms" ;

-4x +10x = 6x ;  and rewrite:

6x - 10 = 2  ;

Now, add "10" to each side of the equation:

6x - 10 + 10 = 2 + 10 ;

to get:

           6x = 12 ;  Now, divide EACH side of the equation by "6" ; to isolate "x" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "x" ; 

           6x/6 = 12 / 6 ;
 
                 x = 2 ;
_________________________________
Now, take our first given equation; and plug our solved value for "x" ; which is "2" ; and solve for "y" ;
_____________________________________
-5x + y = -5  ;

-5(2) + y = -5 ;

-10 + y = -5 ;  ↔
                              y - 10 = -5  ;

Add "10" to each side of the equation; to isolate "y" on one side of the equation; and to solve for "y" ;
     
         y - 10 + 10 = -5 + 10 ;

                   y = 5 .
_____________________________
So, we have, x = 2 ; and y = 5 .
____________________________
Now, let us check our work by plugging in "2" for "x" and "5" for "y" in BOTH the original first and second equations:
______________________________
first equation: 

-5x + y = -5 ;

-5(2) + 5 =? -5?

-10 + 5 =? -5 ? YES!
______________________
second equation:

-4x + 2y = 2 ;

-4(2) + 2(5) =? 2 ?

-8 + 10 =? 2 ?  Yes!
_______________________________________________________
So, the answer is: 
___________________________________________________________
          x = 2 , y = 5 ; or, "(2, 5)" ;  which is: "Answer choice: [B] " .

Write the equation of the parabola that has the vertex at point (3,−12) and passes through the point (0,6).
lana [24]

Answer:

y = 2(x-3)^2 -12

y = -4/9(x-2)^2 +7  bonus

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of a parabola is

y = a(x-h)^2 + k  where (h,k) is the vertex

y = a(x-3)^2 - 12

We have one point given (0,6)

6 = a (0-3) ^2 -12

6 = a (-3)^2 -12

6 = 9a-12

Add 12 to each side

6+12 = 9a

18 = 9a

Divide each side by 9

18/9 = 9a/9

a=2

y = 2(x-3)^2 -12

We follow the same steps for the bonus

y = a(x-2)^2 +7

Substitute the point into the equation

3 = a (-1-2)^2 +7

3 =a (-3)^2 +7

3 = 9a +7

subtract 7 from each side

3-7 = 9a +7-7

-4 = 9a

Divide by 9

-4/9 =a

y = -4/9(x-2)^2 +7

A random sample of adults were asked whether they prefer reading an e-book over a printed book. The survey resulted in a sample
djyliett [7]

Answer: (0.10\ ,\ 0.18)

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the empirical rule, the 95% confidence interval for the true population proportion is given by :-

(p'-2\sigma_{p'}\ ,\ p'+2\sigma_{p'})

Given : . The survey resulted in a sample proportion of p′=0.14, with a sampling standard deviation of σp′=0.02, who preferred reading an e-book.

Then, the 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of adults who prefer e-books will be :-

(0.14-2(0.02)\ ,\ 0.14+2(0.02))\\\\=(0.14-0.04\ ,\ 0.14+0.04)\\\\=(0.10\ ,\ 0.18)

Hence, the 95% confidence interval for the true proportion of adults who prefer e-books= (0.10\ ,\ 0.18)
