[6.03] What is the value of the x variable in the solution to the following system of equations?

1 answer:

8 0

We multiply both equations by a constant term so that when we subtract the equations, the y values cancel out:

4(4x - 3y = 3)
3(5x - 4y = 3)

16x - 12y = 12
15x -12y = 9; subtracting the second equation from the first:

x = 3

How could you find 3/8% of 800

Damm [24]

Well 3/8 is .375 but times 100 is 37.5%
Then 37.5% of 800 is 300

A statistics instructor believes that fewer than 20% of Evergreen Valley College (EVC) students attended the opening night midni

Alex17521 [72]

Answer: It is believed that exactly 20% of Evergreen Valley college students attended the opening night midnight showing of the latest harry potter movie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 84

x = 11

So, $\hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}=\dfrac{11}{84}=0.13$

p = 0.20

So, hypothesis:

$H_0:p=\hat{p}\\\\H_a:\hat{p}$

so, test statistic value would be

$z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}\\\\z=\dfrac{0.13-0.20}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.2\times 0.8}{84}}}\\\\z=-1.604$

At 1% level of significance, critical value would be

z= 2.58

Since 2.58>-1.604

So, We will accept the null hypothesis.

Hence, It is believed that exactly 20% of Evergreen Valley college students attended the opening night midnight showing of the latest harry potter movie.
