3x+y=-4

3x-4y=6

--------------subtract

5y = -10

y = -2

Substitute y = -2 into 3x + y = -4

3x + (-2) = -4

3x - 2 = -4

3x = -2

x = -2/3

Answer

Solution x = -2/3, y = - 2 OR (-2/3 , - 2)

dsp73

Answer:

36 oz.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a 12 Oz soft drink is 80 cents, and we need to find out much many oz in in 2.40, we need to multiply 12 by 3.

because: 2.40=.80×3

so: 12×3= 36

Construct a 99% confidthence interval for the population mean .Assume the population has a normal distribution. A group of 19 ra

Kobotan [32]

<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Confidence interval for mean, when population standard deviation is unknown:

$\overline{x}\pm t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

, where $\overline{x}$ = sample mean

n= sample size

s= sample standard deviation

$t_{\alpha/2}$ = Critical t-value for n-1 degrees of freedom

We assume the population has a normal distribution.

Given, n= 19 , s= 3.8 , $\overline{x}=22.4$

$\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$

A) Critical t value for $\alpha/2=0.005$ and degree of 18 freedom

$t_{\alpha/2}$ = 2.8784

B) Required confidence interval:

$22.4\pm ( 2.8744)\dfrac{3.8}{\sqrt{19}}\\\\=22.4\pm2.5058\\\\=(22.4-2.5058,\ 22.4+2.5058)=(19.8942,\ 24.9058)\approx(19.9,\ 24.9)$

Lower bound = 19.9 years

Uppen bound = 24.9 years

C) Interpretation: We are 99% confident that the true population mean of lies in (19.9, 24.9) .
