Using Substitution solve: y=x+5<br> 4x+y=20
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

So first, plugin y to your equation, it should look like this: 4x+x+5+20. Now, we can solve this. Next, we have two x's so we can combine them. The equation will now look like this: 5x+5=20. Now, we have an extra 5 laying around that we need to get rid of, so we can subtract that 5 to both sides of the equation and we get this: 5x-5=20-5 which ends up being 5x=15. Now, we just divide both ides by 5 and since 15 divided by 5 is 3, we get: x=3

A private opinion poll is conducted for a politician to determine what proportion of the population favors adding more national
Ksju [112]

Answer:

n≅376

So sample size is 376.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula we are going to use is:

n=pq(\frac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^{2}

where:

n is the sample size

p is the probability of favor

q is the probability of not in favor

E is the Margin of error

z is the distribution

α=1-0.98=0.02

α/2=0.01

From cumulative standard Normal Distribution

z_{\alpha/2}=2.326

p is taken 0.5 for least biased estimate, q=1-p=0.5

n=0.5*0.5(\frac{2.326}{0.06})^{2}\\n=375.71

n≅376

So sample size is 376

The floor of a gazebo is in the shape of a regular octagon. The perimeter of the floor is 72 feet. The distance from the center
Katyanochek1 [597]
The length of one side of the octagon is given by:
 L = 72/8&#10;&#10;L = 9
 Then, the apothem can be determined using the Pythagorean theorem in the following way:
 11.8 ^ 2 = (9/2) ^ 2 + a ^ 2&#10;
 Clearing to have:
 a ^ 2 = 11.8 ^ 2 - (9/2) ^ 2
 a = \sqrt{11.8 ^ 2 - (9/2) ^ 2}
 a = 10.91
 Then, the area is given by:
 A = (8) * (1/2) * (L) * (a)&#10;
 Where,
 L: length of the octagon sides
 a: apotema
 Substituting values:
 A = (8) * (1/2) * (9) * (10.91)&#10;&#10;A = 392.76 feet ^ 2
 Answer:
 
the approximate length of the apothem is:
 
a = 10.91 feet
 
The approximate area of the floor of the gazebo is:
 
A = 392.76 feet ^ 2
