The solution to the following system of linear equations lies in which quadrant? −2x + 3y = 8 4x + y = −2

1 answer:

4 0

First, let's find the solution.

-2x + 3y = 8
Add 2x to both sides.
3y = 2x + 8
Divide both sides by 3.
y = 2/3x + 8/3

4x + 2/3x + 8/3 = -2
14/3x + 8/3 = -2
Subtract 8/3 from both sides.
14/3x = -14/3
Multiply both sides by 3/14.
x = -1

y = 2/3(-1) + 8/3
y = -2/3 + 8/3
y = 6/3, or 2.

The solution is (-1, 2) which lies in Quadrant II, because its outline is (-, +).

IrinaK [193]

x = child tickets

y = adult tickets

x + y = 141

5.60x + 9.30y = 974.60

y = 141 - x

5.60x + 9.30 ( 141 - x ) = 974.60

5.60x + 1311.3 - 9.30x = 974.60

-3.70x + 1311.3 = 974.60

-3.70x = 974.60 - 1311.3

-3.70x = -336.7

x = 91

91 child tickets were sold that day

The mean amount spent by a family of four on food per month is $500 with a standard deviation of $75. Assuming that the food cos

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The probability that a family spends less than $410 per month

P( X < 410) = 0.1151

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given mean of the population = 500

Given standard deviation of the Population = 75

Let 'X' be the variable in normal distribution

$Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D}$

Given X = $410

$Z = \frac{410-500}{75} = - 1.2$

Step(ii):-

The probability that a family spends less than $410 per month

P( X < 410) = P( Z < - 1.2 )

= 0.5 - A( -1.2)

= 0.5 - A(1.2)

= 0.5 - 0.3849 ( ∵from normal table)

= 0.1151

Final answer:-

The probability that a family spends less than $410 per month

P( X < 410) = 0.1151

DO U KNOW SLOPE??? PLZ HELP

IgorLugansk [536]

To calculate slope; rise/run

Triangle ABC: run-1 rise-5 slope-5

5 rise/ 1 run (5/1)=5

Triangle DEF: run-2 rise 10 slope-5

10 rise/ 2 run (10/2)=5

B. They are equal because the two triangles are similar
