To solve by substitution, you need to fill in the value for either x or y. Since y = x + 5, you already have the y value. It's x + 5. Now you need to find x before you can go any further. So let's take 5x + y = 3 and fill x + 5 in for y. 5x + y = 5 5x + x + 5 = 3 Now solve for x. 5x + x + 5 = 3 6x + 5 = 3 6x = 3 - 5 6x = -2 x = -2/6 or -0.33 Now solve x + 5 for y. y = x + 5 y = -0.33 + 5 y = 4.67 So x = -0.33 and y = 4.67

Suppose you do an analysis of the starting salaries of 100 recent Lehman graduates. You find that the average starting salary is
madreJ [45]

Answer:

a) (59180,60820)

b) (59020,60980)        

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = $60,000

Standard Deviation, σ = $5,000

Sample size, n = 100

a) 90% critical values

\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting the values, we get,

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = 1.64

60000 \pm 1.64(\frac{5000}{\sqrt{100}} ) = 60000 \pm 820 = (59180,60820)

b) 95% critical values

\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting the values, we get,

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96

60000 \pm 1.96(\frac{5000}{\sqrt{100}} ) = 60000 \pm 980= (59020,60980)

Steve got his car fixed for $557. After taxes it cost him $594. What was the tax rate to the nearest %?
I am Lyosha [343]
You're nearly there. Just some more steps.
557 * x = 594 tells us 
x = 594 / 557 (divide both sides by 557)
x ≈ 1.066427

When we've found this number we must realise the following:
the '1' in this answer is the 100% the car fixing costs (without taxes)
the '0.66427' stands for the tax rate.

To find the tax rate we multiply 0.66427 by 100, which gives us:
0.66427 * 100 = 6.6427 ≈ 7

So, rounded to the nearest %, the tax rate is 7%
