Solve the system using elimination<br><br> 2x+3y=8<br> 5x+6y=17

UNO [17]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we can choose to eliminate either the x values or the y values.

In this case, it would be easier to do y.

We alter the first equation by multiplying by -2 on both sides.

-4x+-6y=-16

Now, we have the equations

-4x+-6y=-16 and 5x+6y=17.

We can see that there is -6y in one equation and 6y in the other, meaning that if we add both equations together, the ys will cancel each other out because they are opposites.

So let's add the equations.

-4x-6y+5x+6y=-16+17

x=1

Living with parents: The Pew Research Center reported that 36% of American Millennials (adults ages 18-31) stll live at home wit

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

$\mathbf{The \ sample \ comes \ from \ a \ population \ of \ Millennial \ students }$ $\mathbf{at \ their \ campus\ where \ 3 6\%\ still\ live\ at\ home\ with\ their \ parents}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information.

The proportion of American Millennials still with their parents = 0.36

The sample size = 300

Sample proportion = 0.43

Level of significance = 0.006

P-value = 0.006

Null hypothesis:

$\mathbf{H_o: Of \ Millennial \ students \ at \ their \ campus, \ 36\% \ }$ $\mathbf{ live \ at \ some \ with \ their \ parents . }$

$\mathbf{H_a: More \ than \ 36\% \ of \ Millennial \ students \ at \ their \ campus \ live \ at \ home }$ $\mathbf{ \ with \ their \ parents}$

The required task is to determine the assumption about the sample that underlies the hypothesis test from the given options.

$\mathbf{The \ sample \ comes \ from \ a \ population \ of \ Millennial \ students }$ $\mathbf{at \ their \ campus\ where \ 3 6\%\ still\ live\ at\ home\ with\ their \ parents}$

This is because the student wants to check if the null hypothesis ( which states that of Millennial students at their campus, 36% live at home with their parents) is correct or not.
