Find 5x − 3y − z if x = −2, y = 2, and z = −3 −19 19 13 −13

1 answer:

8 0

5x - 3y - z
By hypothesis, x = -2, y = 2 and z = -3.

So you all need to do is replace each letter by its value and do the calculus:

5x - 3y - z = 5*(-2) - 3(2) - (-3)
= -10 - 6 + 3=
=-16 + 3
= -13

So when x = -2, y = 2 and z = -3
5x - 3y - z = -13 (answer d)

Hope this helps! :)

Three farmers buy a total of 2,249 acres of land at an auction, Farmer Mel buys land that is 3 times as many acres as Farmer Cas

fgiga [73]

Answer:

Farmer Anne's land = 173 acres

Farmer Cassius = 519 acres

Farmer Mel = 1,557 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

Total acre = 2,249

Let

Farmer Anne's land = x

Farmer Cassius = 3x

Farmer Mel = 3(3x) = 9x

x + 3x + 9x = 2,249

13x = 2,249

x = 173

Farmer Anne's land = x = 173 acres

Farmer Cassius = 3x

= 3(173)

= 519 acres

Farmer Mel = 3(3x) = 9x

= 9(173)

= 1,557 acres

Therefore,

Farmer Anne's land = 173 acres

Farmer Cassius = 519 acres

Farmer Mel = 1,557 acres

find to consecutivephone number such that five times the smaller number plus 3 times the greater number make 59 hint let the num

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

x = 7 is the answer for the smaller number

7 + 1 = 8 is the answer for the larger number

Step-by-step explanation:

LET x and x+1 be the two numbers here, as your hint suggests.

5x + 3(x+1) = 59

5x + 3x+3 = 59

8x = 59-3

8x = 56

/8 /8

--------------------------

x = 56/8 ---> x = 7

x = 7 is the answer for the smaller number

7 + 1 = 8 is the answer for the larger number

Check:

5 * 7 + 3 * 8 = 59

35 + 24 = 59

59 = 59 CORRECT

Bob Nale is the owner of Nale's Texaco GasTown. Bob would like to estimate the mean number of litres (L) of gasoline sold to his

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The point estimate of the population mean is $\= x = 56$

The 80% confidence level is $50.57 < \mu < 61.43$

There is 80% confidence that the true population mean lies within the confidence interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 18

The standard deviation is $\sigma = 18 \ L$

The sample mean is $\= x = 56$

Generally the point estimate of the population mean is equivalent to the sample mean whose value is $\= x = 56$

Given that the confidence interval is 80% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

$\alpha = 100 - 80$

$\alpha = 20 \%$

$\alpha = 0.20$

Next we obtain the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ from the normal distribution table

The value is $Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 1.28$

Generally the margin of error is mathematically evaluated as

$E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }$

=> $E = 1.28 * \frac{18 }{\sqrt{18} }$

=> $E = 5.43$

Generally the 80% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

$\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E$

=> $56 - 5.43 < \mu < 56 + 5.43$

=> $50.57 < \mu < 61.43$

The interpretation is that there is 80% confidence that the true population mean lies within the limit
