Assumin we solving for the intersection or solution

elimination, ya


eliminate y's

multiply firs equation by 2 and add to 2nd

we get
6x+2y=16
<u>-x-2y=-10 +</u>
5x+0y=6

5x=6
divide both sides by 5
x=6/5

sub back
-x-2y=-10
-6/5-2y=-10
times both sides by 5
-6-10y=-50
add 6 to both sides
-10y=-44
divide both sides by -10
y=44/10
y=22/5


(x,y)
(\frac{6}{5},\frac{22}{5})
or
(1.2,4.4)

A printer toner company launches a new product. The number of pages that this new toner can print is normally distributed with a
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number of pages that this new toner can print is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = the number of pages.

µ = mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 2300 pages

σ = 150 pages

1)

the probability that this toner can print more than 2100 pages is expressed as

P(x > 2100) = 1 - P(x ≤ 2100)

For x = 2100,

z = (2100 - 2300)/150 = - 1.33

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.092

P(x > 2100) = 1 - 0.092 = 0.908

2) P(x < 2200)

z = (x - µ)/σ/√n

n = 10

z = (2200 - 2300)/150/√10

z = - 100/47.43 = - 2.12

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.017

P(x < 2200) = 0.017

3) for underperforming toners, the z score corresponding to the probability value of 3%(0.03) is

- 1.88

Therefore,

- 1.88 = (x - 2300)/150

150 × - 1.88 = x - 2300

- 288 = x - 2300

x = - 288 + 2300

x = 2018

The threshold should be

x < 2018 pages

Mrs. Fronkos class for evry 6 boys there are 8 girls. Write the ratio of boys to girls in simplest form
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

3:4

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 6 boys for every 8 girls, so the initial ratio is 6:8. however, this can be simplified by finding a number both 6 and 8 are evenly divisible by. In this case, you can divide the ratio by 2. 6/2 = 3 and 8/2 = 4, which is why the simplified form is 3:4

Find x<br><br><br><br><br> Thanks for the help in advance!
Marina86 [1]

I'm not sure if this is the easiest way of doing this, but it surely work.

Let the base of the triangle be AB, and let CH be the height. Just for reference, we have

AH=2,\quad HB=6,\quad AC=x

Moreover, let CH=y and BC=z

Now, AHC, CHB and ABC are all right triangles. If we write the pythagorean theorem for each of them, we have the following system

\begin{cases}4+y^2=x^2\\36+y^2=z^2\\x^2+z^2=64\end{cases}

If we solve the first two equations for y squared, we have

y^2=x^2-4\\y^2=z^2-36

And we can deduce

z^2 = x^2+32

So that the third equation becomes

x^2+x^2+32=64 \iff 2x^2 = 32 \iff x^2=16 \iff x=4

(we can't accept the negative root because negative lengths make no sense)

Help with 1 and 2 this is urgent
vampirchik [111]
The answer to the first part is 172 plants per row with a remainder of 3 plants
The answer to the second part is, Martin knows that 7 goes into 700 100 times, 7 goes into 490 70 times, and 7 goes into 17 twice with a remainder of 3. He then adds 100 70 and 2 together to get 172 with a remainder of 3.

Determine if the following side lengths can create a triangle:<br> 5, 7, 13<br> A. Yes<br> B. No
Paul [167]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for three sides to make a triangle, if any two sides are added together, their sum should be greater than the third side:

=><u> 5 + 7 = 12 < 13 (DOES NOT check off the rule)</u>

=> 7 + 13 = 20 > 5 (Checks off the rule)

=> 5 + 13 = 18 > 7 (Checks off the rule)

As shown, even though 2 of the statements check off the rule the third one does not, this means that the sides don't make a triangle.

Hope this helps!
