x^2-y=7 and y-5x=-11 The system of equations above has two solutions. The solution in Quadrant 1 is (A,B) and the solution in Qu
dimaraw [331]

By solving the system of equations, we can see that the solutions are:

(A, B) = (4, 9)

(C, D) = (1, -6).

<h3>How to solve the system of equations?</h3>

Here we have the following system of equations:

x^2 - y = 7

y - 5x = -11

If we isolate the variable y in both equations, we get:

y = x^2 - 7

y = -11 + 5x

Now we can equate these two to get:

x^2 - 7 = -11 + 5x

now we have a quadratic equation, this can be rewritten as:

x^2 - 7 + 11 - 5x = 0

x^2 - 5x + 4 = 0

Using the quadratic formula, we will see that the solutions are:

x = \frac{5 \pm \sqrt{(-5)^2 - 4*1*(4)} }{2*1}

Solving that we get:

x = \frac{5 \pm \sqrt{(9} }{2} \\\\x = \frac{5 \pm 3}{2}

So the two solutions for x are:

x = (5 + 3)/2 = 4

x = (5 - 3)/2 = 1

Evaluating the second equation in these x-values we get:

y = -11 + 5*4 = -11 + 20 = 9

y = -11 + 5*1 = -6

Then we have the coordinate pairs: (4, 9) (on the first quadrant) and (1, -6) on the fourth quadrant.

Heights of men have a bell-shaped distribution, with a mean of 176 cm and a standard deviation of 7 cm. Using the Empirical Rule
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

a) 68% of the men fall between 169 cm and 183 cm of height.

b) 95% of the men will fall between 162 cm and 190 cm.

c) It is unusual for a man to be more than 197 cm tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 68-95-99.5 empirical rule can be used to solve this problem.

This values correspond to the percentage of data that falls within in a band around the mean with two, four and six standard deviations of width.

<em>a) What is the approximate percentage of men between 169 and 183 cm? </em>

To calculate this in an empirical way, we compare the values of this interval with the mean and the standard deviation and can be seen that this interval is one-standard deviation around the mean:

\mu-\sigma=176-7=169\\\mu+\sigma=176+7=183

Empirically, for bell-shaped distributions and approximately normal, it can be said that 68% of the men fall between 169 cm and 183 cm of height.

<em>b) Between which 2 heights would 95% of men fall?</em>

This corresponds to ±2 standard deviations off the mean.

\mu-2\sigma=176-2*7=162\\\\\mu+2\sigma=176+2*7=190

95% of the men will fall between 162 cm and 190 cm.

<em>c) Is it unusual for a man to be more than 197 cm tall?</em>

The number of standard deviations of distance from the mean is

n=(197-176)/7=3

The percentage that lies outside 3 sigmas is 0.5%, so only 0.25% is expected to be 197 cm.

It can be said that is unusual for a man to be more than 197 cm tall.
