X+5y=-11 (1)
2x-3y=17 (2)

2(1)-(2)
2x+10y-2x+3y=-22-17
13y=-39
y=-3

Sub y=-3 in (1)
x+5(-3)=-11
x=4

So x+y= -3+4 =1

A bakery sold 36 brownies in a day, which was 30% of the total items sold that day. What was the total number of items the baker
babymother [125]

Answer:

120

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 36 is 30% of total items

So our equation would be 36/? = 30/100

From there we cross multiply so 36x100 = 3600

From there, we divide 3600 by 100

Therefore, your answer is 120

What number plus 2 less than 3 times the number equals 14
Afina-wow [57]

Obviously this will be a negative number

-2 - 14 = 5x - 3x

 

-16 = 2x

x = %28-16%29%2F2

x = -8 is the number

:

:

Check solution in the original statement: x=-8

3(-8) - 2 = 5(-8) + 14

-24 - 2 = -40 + 14

-26 = -26

Assume that
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

D - It is impossible to make a judgment with the given information.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fact that 1200 births were randomly selected and only 599 of such picks are girls does not give enough information on whether the birth is significantly high, low or neither. We must have other information to test for significance of the births proportion.

All we know is that;

Proportion of girls birth (p) = 599/1200 = 0.499. And by default, the proportion of male births (q) will be 1-p = 1-0.499 = 0.501.

If we examine the proportion closely, there seems to be no significant difference in the birth proportion.

Having said this, we cannot really imply that, the number of girls is significantly high. Or the number of girls is neither significantly low nor significantly high. Or the number of girls is significantly low.

The best subjective submission will be that, <em>there is no significant difference between girls birth and males birth.</em> The question of high or low (an alternative hypothesis) requires some further statistical test and this question does not provide further details.

HELP ASAP!!! 40 POINTS
ICE Princess25 [194]

Using derivatives, it is found that the x-values in which the slope belong to the interval (-1,1) are in the following interval:

(-15,-10).

<h3>What is the slope of the tangent line to a function f(x) at point x = x0?</h3>

It is given by the derivative at x = x0, that is:

m = f^{\prime}(x_0).

In this problem, the function is:

f(x) = 0.2x^2 + 5x - 12

Hence the derivative is:

f^{\prime}(x) = 0.4x + 5

For a slope of -1, we have that:

0.4x + 5 = -1

0.4x = -6

x = -15.

For a slope of 1, we have that:

0.4x + 5 = 1.

0.4x = -4

x = -10

Hence the interval is:

(-15,-10).
