Answer:
Part 1: It is not a valid conclusion to say that track and field sports are more popular than soccer based on the survey. The survey was taken at a track and field event so the people that were surveyed are probably biased.
Part 2: A better way of determining which sport is more popular is by counting how many people show up to each event and comparing the results.
Answer:
x=3.4
y=-6.75
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+4y=-10 (equation 1 )
-5x+3y=-17 (equation 2)
7y=-27
y=-6.75
substitution (equation 1 ) y=-6.75
5x-27=-10
5x=17
x=3.4
Answer:
(the relation you wrote is not correct, there may be something missing, so I will simplify the initial expression)
Here we have the equation:

We can rewrite this as:

Now we can add and subtract cos^2(x)*sin^2(x) to get:

We can complete squares to get:

and we know that:
cos^2(x) + sin^2(x) = 1
then:

This is the closest expression to what you wrote.
We also know that:
sin(x)*cos(x) = (1/2)*sin(2*x)
If we replace that, we get:

Then the simplification is:

Answer:
less than.

Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
Since B is the midpoint of AC, that means AB = BC. That means 3x+4 = 5x-6. We can now set up an equation to solve for x:
3x+4 = 5x-6
3x+10 = 5x
10 = 2x
x = 5
Now that we know what x is, we can just plug x into the expression of AB and multiply it by 2:
(3*(5)+4)*2
=(15+4)*2
=19*2
=28
(side note: we could have plugged x into the expression of BC as well, but in this case plugging it into AB tends to be easier to solve)
Therefore, the length of AC is 28.
