The second equation has 4x in it t. So to eliminate X, you need to multiply y = x-2 by -4, so the x would become -4x.

Answer:

d. 84.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You will have to put the numbers in order than cross out one from each side;

70x

80x

83      

86      

88x

88x

In doing this you have taken out B,E, and F.  The answer would have to be somewhere in between 83 and 86, which would be around 84 and 85, so therefore the answer would be 84.5

Answer:

Option D. 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x------>the greatest possible value  

we know that

If four people write the number zero, then the average will be

8=(0+0+0+0+x)/5\\ \\40=0+x\\ \\x=40

An article reported that what airline passengers like to do most on long flights is rest or sleep; in a survey of 3697 passenger
slava [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The study variable is:

X: number of passengers that rest or sleep during a flight.

The sample taken is n=9 passengers and the probability of success, that is finding a passenger that either rested or sept during the flight, is p=0.80.

I'll use the binomial tables to calculate each probability, these tables give the values of accumulated probability: P(X≤x)

a. P(6)= P(X=6)

To reach the value of selecting exactly 6 passengers you have to look for the probability accumulated until 6 and subtract the probability accumulated until the previous integer:

P(X=6)= P(X≤6)-P(X≤5)= 0.2618-0.0856= 0.1762

b. P(9)= P(X=9)

To know the probability of selecting exactly 9 passengers that either rested or slept you have to do the following:

P(X≤9) - P(X≤8)= 1 - 0.8657= 0.1343

c. P(X≥6)

To know what percentage of the probability distribution is above six, you have to subtract from the total probability -1- the cumulated probability until 6 but without including it:

P(X≥6)= 1 - P(X<6)= 1 - P(X≤5)= 1 - 0.0856= 0.9144

I hope it helps!
