Good morning ☕️

Answer:

<h2>(-2 , 3)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

It’s easier to isolate y in the first equation because the coefficient of y there is just 1.

the coefficient of x in the first equation is -3 and in the second equation is 2 then it’s not easy to isolate x in both equation.

solving the system:

−3x + y = 9

2x + 4y = 8

⇔

y = 3x + 9  (*)

2x + 4y = 8

now, we substitute y by 3x + 9 in equation 2:

2x + 4(3x + 9) = 8  ⇔ 14x + 36 = 8 ⇔ 14x = - 28 ⇔ x = -28/14 = -2

at this stage we substitute x by -2 in (*) to get y:

y = 3x + 9 ⇒ y = 3(-2) + 9 = -6 + 9 = 3

finally, the solution of the system is the ordered pair (-2 , 3).

After an extensive advertising campaign, the manager of a company expects the proportion of potential customers that recognize a
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The study variable is:

X: number of customers that recognize a new product out of 120.

There are two possible recordable outcomes for this variable, the customer can either "recognize the new product" or " don't recognize the new product". The number of trials is fixed, assuming that each customer is independent of the others and the probability of success is the same for all customers, p= 0.6, then we can say this variable has a binomial distribution.

The sample proportion obtained is:

p'= 54/120= 0.45

Considering that the sample size is large enough (n≥30) you can apply the Central Limit Theorem and approximate the distribution of the sample proportion to normal: p' ≈ N(p;\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} })

The other conditions for this approximation are also met: (n*p)≥5 and (n*q)≥5

The probability of getting the calculated sample proportion, or lower is:

P(X≤0.45)= P(Z≤\frac{0.45-0.6}{\sqrt{\frac{0.6*0.4}{120} } })= P(Z≤-3.35)= 0.000

This type of problem is for the sample proportion.

I hope this helps!

| 3 x - 2 | = 4x + 4
Ugo [173]

Answer: -2/7

|3x - 2| - 4x = 4

1) (3х - 2) - 4х = 4, if 3x - 2 >= 0

2) -(3x - 2) - 4x = 4, if 3x - 2 < 0

1)

3х - 4х = 4 + 2

-x = 6

x = -6

3х - 2 >= 0

3х >= 2

x >= 2/3 - wrong

2)

-3х + 2 - 4х = 4

-7х = 2

x = -2/7

3x-2<0

3x<2

3(-2/7)<2-right
