Travka [436]3 years ago

Answer:

The y-value is -20

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's solve this by Elimination method;

-2(4x + 5y = -12)

4(2x + 3y = -16)

Let's Distribute;

-8x - 10y = 24

8x + 12y = -64

So x cancels out because -8 + 8 = 0

-10y + 12y = 2y

24 - 64 = -40

2y = -40

Divide both sides by 2;

y = -20

Now lets plug in y to find the value of x;

4x + 5(-20) = -12

4x - 100 = -12

Add 100 to both sides;

4x = 88

Divide both sides by 4;

x = 22

In all, 1000 students took a statistics exam worth 150 points. The first quartile (or Q1) for all 1000 scores is 90 points. Abou
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The number of students who scored more than 90 points is 750.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quartiles are statistical measures that the divide the data into four groups.

The first quartile (Q₁) indicates that 25% of the observation are less than or equal to Q₁.

The second quartile (Q₂) indicates that 50% of the observation are less than or equal to Q₂.

The third quartile (Q₃) indicates that 75% of the observation are less than or equal to Q₃.

It is provided that the first quartile is at 90 points.

That is, P (X ≤ 90) = 0.25.

The probability that a student scores more than 90 points is:

P (X > 90) = 1 - P (X ≤ 90)

                = 1 - 0.25

                = 0.75

The number of students who scored more than 90 points is: 1000 × 0.75 = 750.
