Problem 1
Answer: C) No solution
---------------------------
Explanation:
We have z = -4 and 4z = -4 at the same time. Solving 4z = -4 leads to z = -1
So in effect we have z = -4 and z = -1 at the same time, but this is a contradiction. A variable can only hold one number at a time.
======================================================
Problem 2
Answer: C) Infinitely many solutions
---------------------------
Explanation:
The two equations are equivalent. You can prove as such by isolating 2y in the first equation.
5x = 8-2y
5x+2y = 8
2y = 8-5x
2y = -5x+8
-5x+8 = 2y
This shows the first equation is equivalent to the second, and vice versa. They both graph the same line. Any point along the line is a solution. So that's why there are infinitely many of them.

Problem 3
Answer: Choice A) 
---------------------------
Explanation:
The range is the set of the possible y values. We're concerned with every y coordinate of each (x,y) solution. So we only focus on the shaded region.
The dashed line means we exclude the boundary. It's an electric fence we cannot touch. So y > -6 or -6 < y describes part of the range
The other part is
since y = 3 is the when the highest point occurs.
So writing
describes all possible y values of each (x,y) solution in the shaded region.
Answer:
x = 4.5
y = 3.25
Step-by-step explanation:
Use elimination
5x + 2y = 29
x + 4y = 13 (-5)
4y(-5) = 13(-5)
2y = 29
-20y = -65
y = 3.25
Sub it back into the equation
5x + 6.50 = 29
5x = 22.5
x = 4.5
Answer:
3/2 3*5=15
3/2=1.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
c) .22
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our
level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of
.
So it is z with a pvalue of
, so 
Now, find the margin of error M as such

In which
is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
In this question:

Then



X^2 - xy + xy - Y^2
=
X^2 - Y^2
