Answer:
<h2>The easiest to solve for is x in the first equation</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equation, x + 4 y = 14. and 3 x + 2 y = 12, to solve for x, we can use the elimination method of solving simultaneous equation. We need to get y first.
x + 4 y = 14............ 1 * 3
3 x + 2 y = 12 ............ 2 * 1
Lets eliminate x first. Multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract from equation 2.
3x + 12 y = 42.
3 x + 2 y = 12
Taking the diffrence;
12-2y =42 - 12
10y = 30
y = 3
From equation 1, x = 14-4y
x = 14-4(3)
x = 14-12
x = 2
It can be seen that the easiest way to get the value of x is by using the first equation and we are able to do the substitute easily <u>because the variable x has no coefficient in equation 1 compare to equation 2 </u>as such it will be easier to make the substitute for x in the first equation.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Sample mean = 7.1
Margin of error = 0.465
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for confidence interval is;
CI = x¯ ± zE
Where;
x¯ is sample mean
z is critical value at confidence level
E is margin of error.
z for 99% Cl is 2.58
We are told the CI is 5.9 to 8.3.
Thus;
5.9 = x¯ - 2.58E - - - - (1)
8.3 = x¯ + 2.58E - - - - (2)
Add both equations together to get;
14.2 = 2x¯
x¯ = 14.2/2
x¯ = 7.1
Put 7.1 for x¯ in eq 1 to get;
5.9 = 7.1 - 2.58E
7.1 - 5.9 = 2.58E
E = 1.2/2.58
E = 0.465
The amount of plywood needed to build the garbage bin is the surface area. Therefore, the amount of plywood needed is 90884 cm².
<h3>How to find the surface area of a rectangular prism</h3>
The wooden box is a rectangular prism. The amount of plywood used to construct the wooden box is the surface area of the box.
Therefore,
surface area of rectangular prism = 2(lw + lh + hw)
where
- l = length
- w = width
- h = height
l = 156 cm
w = 122 cm
h = 95 cm
surface area of rectangular prism = 2((156 × 122) + (156 × 95) + (122 × 95))
surface area of rectangular prism = 2(19032 + 14820 + 11590)
surface area of rectangular prism = 2(45442)
surface area of rectangular prism = 90884 cm²
