How do you solve system of eqautions using substitution

Well basically you are plugging in variables. Lets use a random but simple system of equations.
y = 2x - 3
6x + 8y = 20
Now you need to plug in the top equation, which equals y, into the bottom equation.
6x + 8(2x - 3) = 20
6x + 16x - 24 = 20
Combine like terms.
22x - 24 = 20
Add 24 to both sides.
22x = 44
Divide.
x = 2
Now plug in 2 in any of the original equations.
y = 2x - 3
y = 2(2) - 3
y = 4 - 3
y = 1
So your solution is (2,1). And thats how you use substitution.
I hope this helps love! :)

Tain has a great literary tradition that spans centuries. One might assume, then, that Britons read more than citizens of other
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Null hypothesis:p_{1} \leq p_{2}  

Alternative hypothesis:p_{1} > p_{2}  

z=3.02  

p_v =P(Z>3.02)=0.00127  

The p value is a very low value and using any significance level for example \alpha=0.05, 0,1,0.15 always p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of Canadians is not significantly higher than the porportions of readers at Britons.  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

X_{1}=0.86*1004 represent the number of Canadians randomly sampled by Gallup that read at least one book in the past year

X_{2}=0.81*1009 represent the number of Britons randomly sampled that read at least one book in the past year

n_{1}=1004 sample of Gallup selected

n_{2}=1009 sample of Britons selected

p_{1}=0.86 represent the proportion of Canadians randomly sampled by Gallup that read at least one book in the past year

p_{2}=0.81 represent the proportion of Britons randomly sampled that read at least one book in the past year

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the value for the test (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the proportion for men with red/green color blindness is a higher than the rate for women  , the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:p_{1} \leq p_{2}  

Alternative hypothesis:p_{1} > p_{2}  

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{p_{1}-p_{2}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}})}}   (1)

Where \hat p=\frac{X_{1}+X_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}=\frac{0.81+0.86}{2}=0.835

3) Calculate the statistic

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:  

z=\frac{0.86-0.81}{\sqrt{0.835(1-0.835)(\frac{1}{1004}+\frac{1}{1009})}}=3.02  

4) Statistical decision

For this case we don't have a significance level provided \alpha, but we can calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a one side test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(Z>3.02)=0.00127  

So the p value is a very low value and using any significance level for example \alpha=0.05, 0,1,0.15 always p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of Canadians is not significantly higher than the porportions of readers at Britons.

Purple color figure is similar to the original figure.

<u>Solution:</u>

Property of similar polygon:

<em>Similar polygons have same shape, corresponding angles are congruent and the corresponding sides are in the same ratio.</em>

(1) <u>Compare original figure with green color figure:</u>

Angles of the original figure:

37°, 53° and 90°.

Angles of the green color figure:

67°, 23° and 90°

These two angles of the triangles not congruent angles.

Hence these shapes are not similar.

(2) <u>Compare original figure with yellow color figure:</u>

Angles of the original figure:

37°, 53° and 90°.

Angles of the yellow color figure:

67°, 23° and 90°

These two angles of the triangles are not congruent angles.

Hence these shapes are not similar.

(3) <u>Compare original figure with purple color figure:</u>

Angles of the original figure:

37°, 53° and 90°

Angles of the purple color figure:

37°, 53° and 90°

These two triangles have same shape and congruent angles.

Ratio of the sides:

$\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2} , \ \frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2} , \ \frac{5}{10}=\frac{1}{2}

These two triangles have same ratio.

Hence these shapes are similar.

Hence purple color figure is similar to the original figure.

An ice cream sundae costs $1.75 plus an additional $0.35 for each topping. If the total
laiz [17]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

$1.75 (ice cream) + $0.35 (topping) * x (some toppings) = $2.80, so I can rewrite it like that: 1.75+0.35x=2.80

1) Move the constant to the right side and change its sign: 0.35x=2.8-1.75

2) Substract the numbers: 0.35x=1.05

3) Divide the both sides of the equation by 0.35

4) x=3
