-4x-2y=-12
4x+8y=-24
--------------------------add
6y = -36
y = -6
Substitute y = -6 into -4x-2y=-12
-4x-2(-6) = -12
-4x + 12 = -12
-4x = -24
x = 6
Answer
x = 6 and y = -6
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
You would do this by dividing 43 into 860
Linear functions have to have the same slope between any 2 points
find the slope betwen them
slope betwen 2 points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
(y1-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(1,12) and (3,9)
slope=(9-12)/(3-1)=-3/2
if we wanted to chek furthere, we check (3,9) and (5,6) and fnd that the slope is also -3/2
so
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=yint
y=-3/2x+b
find b
if x=1 then y=12
12=-3/2+b
add 3/2 both sides
12+3/2=b
13+1/2=b
26/2+1/2=b
27/2=b
y=-3/2x+27/2
try them
we have 2 x values
7 and 3
input them and see their outputs
for x=7
y=-3/2(7)+27/2
y=-21/2+27/2
y=6/2
y=3
(7,3) is a valid point
for x=3
hold a second, we already have a x=3
it is (3,9)
none of them
answer is (7,3)
Answer:
0.7486 = 74.86% observations would be less than 5.79
Step-by-step explanation:
I suppose there was a small typing mistake, so i am going to use the distribution as N (5.43,0.54)
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
The general format of the normal distribution is:
N(mean, standard deviation)
Which means that:

What proportion of observations would be less than 5.79?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 5.79. So



has a pvalue of 0.7486
0.7486 = 74.86% observations would be less than 5.79
You just add the values for volunteers that worked 16-20 hours and 21-25 hours which would be 50 + 10 = 60. So the total number of volunteers that workers more than 15 hours is 60.
