Hi there!

x - 3y = 9
x = 9 + 3y
 
-4x + y = 8
-4(9+3y) + y = 8
-36 - 12y + y = 8
-36 - 11y = 8
-11y = 44
-y = 4
y = -4

x - 3y = 9
x - 3(-4) = 9
x + 12 = 9
x = 21

So, your answers are y = -4 and x = 21.

Hope this helps!

A chocolate factory produces mints that weigh 10 grams apiece. The standard deviation of the weight of a box of 10 mints is 3 gr
frozen [14]

The confidence that the box you bought did not come from the factory is 90 %.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Since we have given that

Population Mean weight (\mu)= 10 grams a piece

Standard deviation of the weight of a box = 3 grams

Number of mints = 10

We need to buy a box of mints that weighs 95 grams.

Sample mean is given by

x = \frac{95}{10}=9.5 grams .

First we find out the standard error which is given by

s=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=\frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}\\\\= 0.94868

Since it is normal distribution, so, we will find z-score.

z=\frac{x-\mu}{s}\\\\z=\frac{9.5-10}{0.94868}\\\\z=-0.527\\\\

z = - 0.53

The area to the left of a z-score of -0.53 = 0.29805.

So, it may be 90% or 95 % confidence.

For 95% confidence level,

\alpha=\frac{1-0.95}{2}=0.025

Similarly,

For 90% confidence level,

\alpha=\frac{1-0.90}{2}=0.05

The value is much smaller than 0.05.  

So, we will get 90% confidence and the critical value = 1.645

Margin of error is given by

(Standard deviation) \times (critical\ value) = 0.94868 \times 1.645

                                                              =1.56

So, confidence interval will be

                          (10-1.56,10+1.56)

                              =(8.44,11.56)
