Answer:

$\boxed{\sf \ \ \ x=2, \ \ y =1 \ \ \ }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

Pls post the full question next time so that we can make sure what is expected.

I assume that you want to solve for (x,y)

(1) 2x + 3y = 7

(2) 3x + 2y = 8

2*(2)-3*(1) gives

2*3x + 2*2y - 3*2x - 3*3y = 2*8 - 3*7 = 16 - 21 = -5

6x - 6x + 4y -9y = -5

-5y=-5

y = 1

and we can replace in (1)

2x + 3*1 = 7

2x = 7 - 3 = 4

x = 2

hope this helps

Answer:

No solution.

Explanation:

The roots (zeros) are the x values where the graph intersects the x-axis. To find the roots (zeros), replace f(x) with 0 and solve for x.

Multiple choice!! There's only one correct answer.

GalinKa [24]

The solution is where the red line crosses the blue line, which on the X axis is between the 1 and the 2, so about 1.5.

Convert the fractions to decimal and see which one is close to 1.5:

13/8 = 1.625

25/16 = 1.5625

7/4 = 1.75

27/16 = 1.6875

The closest one to 1.5 is 25/16

Sarah is doing research on the average age of first-year resident physicians. She wants her estimate to be accurate to within 1

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: The number of first-year residents she must survey to be 95% confident= 263

Step-by-step explanation:

When population standard deviation ( $\sigma$ ) is known and margin of error(E) is given, then the minimum sample size (n) is given by :-

$n=(\dfrac{z^*\sigma}{E})^2$ , z* = Two-tailed critical value for the given confidence interval.

For 95% confidence level , z* = 1.96

As, $\sigma$ = 8.265, E = 1

So, $n= (\dfrac{1.96\times8.265}{1})^2 =(16.1994)^2\\\\= 262.42056036\approx263\ \ \ [\text{Rounded to the next integer}]$

Hence, the number of first-year residents she must survey to be 95% confident= 263
