Answer:

The solution to the given system of equations is (-2, -2).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is,

2x + y = -6 .......(1)

-8x + 2y = 12 ......(2)

Now, we will make the coefficients of either x or y as opposites.

In the above system of equations, we will make the coefficients of x as opposites.

Multiplying equation (1) by '4' and equation (2) by '1', we get

8x + 4y = -24 .......(3)

-8x + 2y = 12 .......(4)

Now, we will add the equations (3) and (4).

(8x + 4y) + (-8x + 2y) = -24 + 12

⇒8x + 4y - 8x + 2y = -12

⇒6y = -12

⇒y = $\frac{-12}{6}$

⇒y = -2

Now, substituting the value of y in equation (1), we get

2x + (-2) = -6

⇒2x - 2 = -6

⇒2x = -6+2

⇒2x = -4

⇒x = $\frac{-4}{2}$

⇒x = -2

∴ x = -2; y = -2 is the solution of the given system of equations.

Which graph shows the solution set for |x - 3| < 4?

ikadub [295]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 3| < 4

To remove the absolute values, we need to make two inequalities, one positive and one negative

x-3 < 4 and x-3 > -4

Add 3 to each side

x-3+3<4+3 and x-3+3 > -4+3

x<7 and x >-1

-1 <x <7

According to government data, 20% of employed women have never been married. If 10 employed women are selected at random, what i

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

a) $P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302$

b) $P(X\leq 2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) +P(X=2)$

$P(X=0) = (10C0) (0.2)^0 (1-0.2)^{10-0}= 0.107$

$P(X=1) = (10C1) (0.2)^1 (1-0.2)^{10-1}= 0.268$

$P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302$

And replacing we got:

$P(X\leq 2) = 0.107+0.268+0.302=0.678$

c) For this case we want this probability:

$P(X\geq 8) = P(X=8) + P(X=9) +P(X=10)$

But for this case the probability of success is p =1-0.2= 0.8

We can find the individual probabilities and we got:

$P(X=8) = (10C8) (0.8)^8 (1-0.8)^{10-8} =0.302$

$P(X=9) = (10C9) (0.8)^9 (1-0.8)^{10-9} =0.268$

$P(X=10) = (10C10) (0.8)^{10} (1-0.8)^{10-10} =0.107$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 8) = 0.677$

And replacing we got:

$P(X\geq 8)=0.0000779$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Bin (n=10 ,p=0.2)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable "number of women that have never been married" , on this case we now that the distribution of the random variable is:

$X \sim Binom(n=10, p=0.2)$

Part a

We want to find this probability:

$P(X=2)$

And using the probability mass function we got:

$P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302$

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X\leq 2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) +P(X=2)$

We can find the individual probabilities and we got:

$P(X=0) = (10C0) (0.2)^0 (1-0.2)^{10-0}= 0.107$

$P(X=1) = (10C1) (0.2)^1 (1-0.2)^{10-1}= 0.268$

$P(X=2) = (10C2) (0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{10-2}= 0.302$

And replacing we got:

$P(X\leq 2) = 0.107+0.268+0.302=0.678$

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X\geq 8) = P(X=8) + P(X=9) +P(X=10)$

But for this case the probability of success is p =1-0.2= 0.8

We can find the individual probabilities and we got:

$P(X=8) = (10C8) (0.8)^8 (1-0.8)^{10-8} =0.302$

$P(X=9) = (10C9) (0.8)^9 (1-0.8)^{10-9} =0.268$

$P(X=10) = (10C10) (0.8)^{10} (1-0.8)^{10-10} =0.107$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 8) = 0.677$
