Answer: the price of 1 yard of chicken wire is $2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one yard of landscaping fabric.

Let y represent the cost of one yard of chicken wire.

Charlotte pays $24 for 3 yards of landscaping fabric and 6 yards of chicken wire. This means that

3x + 6y = 24 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Kami pays $30 for 6 yards of landscaping fabric and 3 yards of chicken wire. This means that

6x + 3y = 30 - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 6 and equation 2 by 3, it becomes

18x + 36y = 144

18x + 9y = 90

Subtracting

27y = 54

y = 54/27 = 2

Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes

3x + 6×2 = 24

3x = 24 - 12 = 12

x = 12/3 = 4

Answer:

$2 per yard.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price per yard of landscaping fabric be f and the price of chicken wire per yard be c.

3f + 6c = 24     Multiply this equation by  - 2:

-6f - 12c = -48 Also:

6f + 3c = 30

Adding the last 2 equations:

-9c = -18

c = 2.

4x - 5y = -15
y = -3x + 22

Plug in your y= equation into the y variable in the other equation

  4x - 5 (y) = -15
            ^^
y = (-3x + 22) = -15

4x - 5 (-3x + 22) = -15

Distribute

4x + 15x - 110 = -15

Combine like terms and add 110 over to -15

19x = 95

Then, divide the whole equation by 19

x = 5

Then, plug in your x into your y= equation

y = -3 (5) + 22
y = -15 + 22
y = 7

<em><u>x = 5</u></em>
<em><u>y = 7</u></em>
<em><u>(5, 7)</u></em>

In a survey sample of 83 respondents, the mean number of hours worked per week is 39.04, with a standard deviation of 11.51. Cal
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Given that,

Sample size= 83

Mean number= 39.04

Standard deviation= 11.51

We know the critical t-value for  95% confidence interval which is equal to 1.989.

We also know the formula for confidence interval,

CI=( mean number - critical t-value*standard deviation/(sample size)^(1/2), mean number + critical t-value*standard deviation/(sample size)^(1/2))

So, we have

CI= (39.04 - 1.989*11.51/83^(1/2), 39.04 + 1.989*11.51/83^(1/2)

CI= (39.04 - 2.513,39.04 + 2.513)

CI= (36.527,41.553)

Therefore, 95% confidence interval for these data is (36.527,41.553), and this result interpret that the true value for this survey sample lie in the interval (36.527,41.553).

Yes for the first one, yes for the second one, and yes for the third one although your subtraction equation had the wrong year (its not 1847 its 1846) but the answer was right, 65.
