Find the solution: 3x + 2y = 12 -2x + 3y = 5

Mathematics

Answer:

x = 3

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = 12

-2x + 3y = 5 to find the solution we will use elimination method and for that, multiply second equation with 3 and the first equation with 2

<em>2 * 3x + 2y = 12</em>

<em>6x + 4y = 24</em>

<u>3 * -2x + 3y = 5</u>

<u>-6x + 9y = 15</u>  now find the sum of both equation:

<em>6x + 4y  </em><u>-6x + 9y</u> = 24 + 15 add like terms

13y = 39 divide both sides by 13

y = 3 now that we found the value of y we can use this to calculate the value of x

3x + 2y = 12 replace y with 3

3x + 2*2 = 12

3x + 4 = 12 subtract 4 from both sides

3x = 9 divide both sides by 3

x = 3

What is the answer to -3+p=?
nata0808 [166]
There is not an answer to an expression. 

-3+p is an expression, unless there was an equal sign and a sum at the end, that is when we can solve for the variable x. 

-3+p simply equals -3+p

Story: The Escalator Ratio Task: Ty took the escalator to the second floor. The escalator is 12 meters long, and he rode the esc
agasfer [191]

Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

YES, HE TRAVELLED 2 METRES EVERY 5 SECONDS

PROOF:

TOTAL RIDE TIME = 30 SECONDS

Length of elevator = 12 METRES

Distance moved per second can be calculated by = (length of elevator / total ride time)

( 12 METRES / 30 seconds) = 0.4 metres per second

Therefore, distance covered in 5 seconds :

0.4 × 5 = 2 metres.

Hence, the proof

He traveled 2 meters ever 5 seconds

Insurance companies are interested in knowing the population percent of drivers who always buckle up before riding in a car. The
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The 84% confidence interval for the population proportion that claim to always buckle up is (0.74, 0.80).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

They randomly survey 387 drivers and find that 298 claim to always buckle up.

This means that n = 387, \pi = \frac{298}{387} = 0.77

84% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.16, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.16}{2} = 0.92, so Z = 1.405.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.77 - 1.405\sqrt{\frac{0.77*0.23}{387}} = 0.74

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.77 + 1.405\sqrt{\frac{0.77*0.23}{387}} = 0.8

The 84% confidence interval for the population proportion that claim to always buckle up is (0.74, 0.80).
