Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

you do PEMDAS

there is parenthesis

12-6+6 times 2

there is multiplication

12-6+12

then there is subtraction and addition so you have to do it left to right

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving these types of questions, you want to remember PEMDAS. According to PEMDAS, P is parenthesis. (14-8) is in parenthesis. 14-8 is 6.

Now the equation looks like this:

12-6 + (6)2

There are no Exponents in this equation, but there is multiplication. If there are no operations between two integers, that means it is likely to be multiplication. 6 x 2 is 12.

Now the equation looks like this:

12-6+ 12

Even though, according to PEMDAS, Addition is before subtraction, you can do either one from left to right. Even with multplication and division.

Now the equation looks like this:

6+12

Obviously 6+12 is 18. So, 18 is the answer.

Please help fast. - a pair of equations are shown below:<br><br> y = 7x - 8<br> y = 5x - 2
Vlad [161]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = 7x - 8 → (1)

y = 5x - 2 → (2)

A

Solving by substitution

Substitute y = 7x - 8 into (1)

7x - 8 = 5x - 2 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

2x - 8 = - 2 ( add 8 to both sides )

2x = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (1)

y = 7(3) - 8 = 21 - 8 = 13

Solution is (3, 13 )

B

The point of intersection of the graph of the 2 equations is the solution to the above equations.

That is point of intersection = (3, 13 )

Each morning John eats some eggs. On any given morning, the number of eggs he eats is equally likelyto 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 independ
qaws [65]

Answer:

Mean = 3

Variance = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since number of eggs he eats is equally likely to any 5 numbers, probability of each one will be (1/5) = 0.2

The probability mass function will therefore be

x 1 2 3 4 5

p 0.2 0.2 0.2 0.2 0.2

The mean is given as the expected value

And expected value is given as

E(X) = Σ xᵢpᵢ

where x = each possible sample space

p = probability of the sample space occurring.

E(X) = (1×0.2) + (2×0.2) + (3×0.2) + (4×0.2) + (5×0.2) = 3 eggs.

b) Variance is given by

Variance = Var(X) = Σx²p − μ²

where μ = E(X)

Σx²p = (1² × 0.2) + (2² × 0.2) + (3² × 0.2) + (4² × 0.2) + (5² × 0.2) = 0.2 + 0.8 + 1.8 + 3.2 + 5 = 11

Var(X) = Σx²p − μ² = 11 - 3² = 11 - 9 = 2

You have recently signed up for a new job and noticed this policy for retirement savings. Invest $200 and the employer does 70%
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Amount per month contributed by employer $ = 200*0.70 = 140

Total amount employer contributes $ = 140*420 = 58800

Total amount employee contributes $ = 200*420 = 84000

Total amount after 35 years with interest calculated AT 4.8% (Employer + employee + interest) $ = 371024.67

Interest amount for 35 years accumulated $ = 228224.67

Amount deposited by employee $ = 84000

Excess amount in the account over the employee contribution

Including employer contribution $ = 287024.67

Excluding employer contribution $ = 228224.67

Step-by-step explanation:

Corey used the regression equation y = 1.505x − 88.21, where x is the temperature and y is the number of swimmers, to determine
blondinia [14]

x is the temperature and y is the number of swimmers. If there are 80 swimmers, then y = 80 instead of x = 80

This is how Corey should have solved

y = 1.505*x - 88.21

80 = 1.505*x - 88.21 <--- replace y with 80

1.505*x - 88.21 = 80

1.505*x = 80 + 88.21 <--- add 88.21 to both sides

1.505*x = 168.21

x = 168.21/1.505 <--- divide both sides by 1.505

x = 111.767

x = 111.8

If there are 80 swimmers at the pool, then the possible outside temperature is roughly 111.8 degrees F. This temperature seems awfully large, so it's possible that Corey's regression equation has limited scope; in other words, it isn't too useful if x is outside a given interval.
