Set each equation equal to either x or y.

I’ll do x.

x+2y-2y = 3-2y
(Simplify) x = 3-2y

x-y+y = 6+y
(Simplify) x = 6+y

(Set them equal to each other)
3-2y = 6+y

3-2y-6 = 6+y+2y

-3 = 3y

y = -1
x =5

Answer:

x=5

y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2y=3

x-y=6

x+2y=3

x=6+y

(6+y)+2y=3

x=6+y

6+y+2y=3

x=6+y

6+3y=3

x=6+y

3y=3-6

x=6+y

3y=-3

x=6+y

y=-3/3

x=6+y

y=-1

x=6-1

y=-1

x=5

The perimeter of a triangle is 17x-5 units. One side is 3.x + 5 units and another is 8x-3 units. How many units long is the thir

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

C = 6x - 7 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three sides of the triangle = A, B, and C respectively.

Given the following data;

Perimeter of triangle, P = 17x-5 units

Side A = 3x+5 units

Side B = 8x-3 units

To find side C?

The perimeter of a triangle is given by the addition of all its three (3) sides.

Mathematically, the perimeter of a triangle is given by the formula;

P = A + B + C

Making "C" the subject of formula, we have;

C = P - A - B

Substituting into the equation, we have

C = 17x - 5 - (3x + 5) - (8x - 3)

C = 17x - 5 - 3x - 5 - 8x + 3

Collecting the like terms, we have;

C = 17x - 3x - 8x - 5 - 5 + 3

C = 6x - 7 units

Therefore, the third side is 6x - 7 units long.

Answer:

A.) There is a 3.4% chance that a random sample of 50 expectant mothers will have a mean age of 26.5 years old or greater if the mean age for a first time mother is 26 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean age for a first time mother is assumed 26 years old (null hypothesis) and p-value of the sample mean (26.5 years ) is found as 0.034.

This is the probability of having first time mother mean age 26.5 or greater under the assumption of null hypothesis.
