-1/2y=1/2x+5 and y=2x+2

I assume this is the intersection of two lines, i.e. -1/2y is (-1/2)y. Please tell me if it's really -1/(2y).

(-1/2)y=(1/2)x+5

Multiplying both sides by -2

y = - x - 10

The other equation is

y = 2x + 2

We can equate them to find the meet

y = - x - 10 = 2x + 2

-3x = 12

x = -4

y = 2x + 2 = -6

Check: (-1/2)y=3, (1/2)x+5=3, equal, good

2x+2=2(-4)+2=-6=y, good

Answer: x=-4, y=-6

If y = 124 and x = 12, find y when x = -24.

Answer:

y = -248

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Set up a proportion:

$\displaystyle\frac{124}{12} =\frac{y}{-24}$

Cross-multiply:

$12y=(-24)(124)\\12y=-2976\\y=-248$

I hope this helps!

In June 2005, a CBS News/NY Times poll asked a random sample of 1,111 U.S. adults the following question: "What do you think is

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The appropriate null hypothesis is $H_0: p = 0.25$

The appropriate alternative hypothesis is $H_1: p < 0.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Exactly a year prior to this poll, in June of 2004, it was estimated that roughly 1 out of every 4 U.S. adults believed (at that time) that the war in Iraq was the most important problem facing the country.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is still the same, that is, of $\frac{1}{4} = 0.25$ . So

$H_0: p = 0.25$

We would like to test whether the 2005 poll provides significant evidence that the proportion of U.S. adults who believe that the war in Iraq is the most important problem facing the U.S. has decreased since the prior poll.

Decreased, so at the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is less than 0.25, that is:

$H_1: p < 0.25$

Travka [436]

Answer:

0.001

Step-by-step explanation:

Ericsson is claimed to increase the likelihood of a baby girl ;

Given the alternative hypothesis to buttress this claim :

HA : p>0.5

In other to establish the success of Ericsson's claim, then there must be significant evidence to reject the Null hypothesis ; hence adopt the alternative.

To Do this, we need a very small Pvalue ; such that it will be lesser than the α - value in other to reject the Null and adopt the alternative.

Recall ;

Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null

Therefore, from the options, we choose the smallest Pvalue as we want the Pvalue to be as small as possible.
