Which method would be the simplest way to solve the system?
Lunna [17]
It would be elimination (C) because 7x and -7x can be eliminated into 0.

  7x + 5y = 19
  -7x - 2y = -16
          3y = 3
           3     3
            y = 1
  7x + 5y = 19
7(1) + 5y = 19
    7 + 5y = 19
  - 7            - 7
          5y = 12
           5      5
           y = 2.4
    (x, y) = (1, 2.4)

Assume that the readings at freezing on a batch of thermometers are normally distributed with a mean of 0°C and a standard devia
lesya692 [45]

Answer: P(x > - 0.23) = 0.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are assuming that the readings at freezing on a batch of thermometers are normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = the readings at freezing on a batch of thermometers.

µ = mean temperature reading

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 0°C

σ = 1.00°C

the probability of obtaining a reading less than -0.23°C is expressed as

P(x > - 0.23)

For x = - 0.23

z = (- 0.23 - 0)/1 = - 0.23

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.41

Find x, y, and z<br><br> x = 39<br> x = 29<br> y = 61<br> y = 29<br> z = 61<br> z = 29
nikdorinn [45]

answer:

x = 29

y = 29

z = 61

step-by-step explanation:

all angles in a triangle must equal 180 degrees.

we were already given the angle degree of 61 degrees so we must include that in our formula to determine the degree of y.

the line in the middle already gives us two more angles because they both are 90 degrees for being a perfect quarter turn.

so to figure out y,

we must add 61+90 and then subtract the sum of that from 180.

so, 61+90 = 150 and 180-151 = 29

therefore,

we can conclude that y = 29

now, to determine the degrees of x and z we do the same thing.

we already know one angle equals 90 degrees.

180-90 = 90

that concludes that x and z must have a sum of 90.

if we use our choices,

39+61 = 100 (no)

39+29 = 68 (no)

29+61 = 90 (CORRECT)

29+29 = 28 (no)

<em>therefore, x = 29 and z = 61</em>

<em></em>

<em>so, in total :</em>

<em>x = 29</em>

<em>y = 29</em>

<em>z = 61</em>

<em></em>

<em>hope this helps :)   </em>
