2x - 2y = -2

x - 4y = 5

In x -4y =5, add 4y to both sides to get x = 4y +5

Now substitute that equation for x in the first equation:

2x - 2y = -2

2(4y +5) - 2y = -2

Simplify:

8y +10 - 2y = -2

Combine like terms:

6y +10 = -2

Subtract 10 from both sides:

6y = -12

Divide both sides by 6:

y = -12 /6

y = -2

Now you have y, substitute y in the second equation to solve for x:

x - 4y = 5

x -4(-2) = 5

Simplify:

x+8 = 5

Subtract 8 from both sides:

x = -3

Now you have x = -3 and y = -2

The answer is (-3,-2)

Answer:

(-3, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the second equation, we can easily rearrange it to make x the subject.

x - 4y = 5

x = 4y + 5

Now lets put that into the second equation

2x - 2y = -2

2(4y + 5) - 2y = -2

6y + 10 = -2

6y = -12

y = -2

Now lets find x!

x = 4y + 5

x = 4(-2) + 5

x = -3

Now lets format the answer like the question says (ordered pair)

(-3, -2)

Recap: We used substitution and made an equation to work out one of the variables first, then found the second variable using the first.

A pizza shop sells three sizes of pizza, and they track how often each size gets ordered along with how much they profit from ea
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The mean and standard deviation of Y is $6.56 and $2.77 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let Y represent their profit on a randomly selected pizza with this promotion.

The company is going to run a promotion where customers get $2 off any size pizza.

Therefore, Y=\text{Profit}-\$2

Y=X-\$2

So the mean will be reduced by 2.

\mu_Y=\mu_X-\$2

\mu_Y =\$ 8.56 - \$2

\mu_Y =\$6.56

If we add or subtract any constant number from a given distribution, then the mean is changed by the same number(i.e constant number) but the standard deviation will remain the same.

Therefore \sigma_Y=\sigma_X=2.77

Hence, the mean and standard deviation of Y is $6.56 and $2.77 respectively.

I need help plz someone
stich3 [128]

Answer:

5C 6D

Step-by-step explanation:

5, a^2 = b^2 + c^2

6,

A is wrong because two distinct lines intersect at 1 point only or 0 (they will never intersect when they are parallel)

B & C are wrong because lines contain infinite point

E is wrong because 2 parallel lines will never intersect, as the result, their common points = 0

How to do composition of functions​
KengaRu [80]
<h2><u><em>If you rather have the link to get this info lmk!!</em></u></h2>

Example: f(x) = 2x+3 and g(x) = x2

"x" is just a placeholder. To avoid confusion let's just call it "input":

f(input) = 2(input)+3

g(input) = (input)2

Let's start:

(g º f)(x) = g(f(x))

First we apply f, then apply g to that result:

Function Composition - (g º f)(x) = (2x+3)2

What if we reverse the order of f and g?

(f º g)(x) = f(g(x))

First we apply g, then apply f to that result:

Function Composition - (f º g)(x) = 2x2+3

We get a different result!  When we reverse the order the result is rarely the same.  So be careful which function comes first.

What is the solution to the compound inequality in interval notation? 2(2x−1)&gt;6 or <br> x+3≤−6
Vikentia [17]
4x - 2 > 6
4x > 8
x > 2

x + 3 <= -6
x <= -9 

so answer in interval notation is  (-∞, -9] or (2, ∞)
