-5x+y=-3. (1) isolate y 1.First isolate a variable.( I isolated y because it was already isolated)
3x-8y=24. (2). 2.Then substitute that into the other equation
—————. 3. Then solve for X
Sub y=5x-3 into (2). 4. Then substitute X into one of the equations
5. Then solve for Y and ta-da you find the answer.
3x-8(5x-3)=24.
3x-40x+24=24. Hope this helped! :)
3x-40x=24-24
-37x=0
X=0
——————
Sub x=0 into (1)

-5(0)+y=-3
Y=-3

.: (0,-3)

A research organization reported that 41 percent of adults who were asked to describe their day responded that they were having
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

B) No, because the p-value is greater than any reasonable significance level

Step-by-step explanation:

H-null: p = 0.41

H-alt: p =/= 0.41

1 proportion Z test

On a calculator: stat + tests + 5

   p: .41

   x: 245

   n: 600

   prop: =/= p

This gives a p-value = .934

(standard significance level is .05, so this p-value is much larger)

The price of a toaster increase 10% to $40. What is the original price of the toaster before the increase?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

36.36

Step-by-step explanation:

We can express 10% as a decimal by multiplying it by (1/100), resulting in 0.1. Therefore, adding 0.1 of the original price, or x, to the price will result in 40, so x+0.1*x=40

          = 1.1x

Dividing both sides by 1.1, we get that x, or the original price, is $36.36 (approximately).

Write an equation in slope-intercept form (0,2) (7,-1)
maksim [4K]

Answer:

y=-3/7x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

first formula (Slope): y2-y1/x2-x1

-1-2/7-0= -3/7

second formula (point slope): y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-2=-3/7(x-0)

(distribute the -3/7)

y-2=-3/7x-0

(add 2 to both sides)

y=-3/7x+2

Devon's father is installing new wood flooring. He bought boards that are 10 ft long, 3/4 in. thick, and 11/24 in. wide. Determi
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

36 boards

Step-by-step explanation:

The boards are as long as the room, so I only had to worry about the width. If the boards were 1/2 ft wide, I would need 2 boards for every foot of width. For 16 ft, I would need 32 boards.

Instead of dividing, I wrote the equivalent multiplication by multiplying by the reciprocal of 11/24 (the reciprocal of 11/24 is 24/11)

I simplified by dividing both 2 and 24 by 2, and both 11 and 33 by 11.

Therefore he needs 36 boards
