When using the substitution method for solving a system of linear equations in two variables, what should be the first step?

1 answer:

8 0

The first step would be to isolate a variable (solve for a variable)....so u will have something to sub into the other equation

densk [106]

a. The population for the study is a total of 1000 adults, so the 50% that favored the plan made up a total of 500 people, since 500 is 1/2 (or 50%) of 1000.

b. The percentage provided is an inferential statistic. Inferential statistics are made by taking a sample of a population and using that sample as data used to make inferences/predictions. Since the percentage provided is a sample of a population being used to make a prediction, it is an inferential statistic.

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment with the given pair of endpoints. J(6, 6); K(2, –4)

Levart [38]

Answer:

(4,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

let J(6,6) be x1, y1

let K(2,-4) be x2, y2

midpoint = (x1+x2)/2 , (y1+y2)/2

=(6+2)/2 ,(6-4)/2

= 8/2 ,2/2

=4, 1

Suppose the probability that a softball player gets a hit in any single at-bat is 0.300. Assuming that her chance of getting a h

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

$P(X=4)=(1-0.3)^{4-1} 0.3 = 0.103$

The probability that she will not get a hit until her fourth time at bat in a game is 0.103

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The geometric distribution represents "the number of failures before you get a success in a series of Bernoulli trials. This discrete probability distribution is represented by the probability density function:"

$P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x-1} p$

Let X the random variable that measures the number os trials until the first success, we know that X follows this distribution:

$X\sim Geo (1-p)$

Solution to the problem

For this case we want this probability

$P(X=4)$

And using the probability mass function we got:

$P(X=4)=(1-0.3)^{4-1} 0.3 = 0.103$

The probability that she will not get a hit until her fourth time at bat in a game is 0.103
