-47 - 15y =-17 -x+ 5y=-13

Mathematics
1 answer:
Leya [2.2K]3 years ago

-47 - 15y =-17.....Equation A

-x+ 5y=-13..........Equation B

Solve B for y.

-x + 5y = -13

5y = x - 13

y = (x - 13)/5

Plug y into A.

-47 -15y = -17

-47 -15(x - 13)/5 = -17

-47 -3(x - 13) = -17

-47 -3x + 39 = -17

-3x - 8 = -17

-3x = -17 + 8

-3x = -9

x = -9/-3

x = 3

Now that we know x is 3, plug 3 for x into EITHER Equation A or B (your choice) to find y.

I will let you do that.

Is a measure of 26 inches​ "far away" from a mean of 16 ​inches? As someone with knowledge of​ statistics, you answer​ "it depen
alexandr402 [8]

Answer: Hello!

In a normal distribution, between the mean and the mean plus the standar deviation, there is a 34.1% of the data set, between the mean plus the standar deviation, and the mean between two times the standard deviation, there is a 16.2% of the data set, and so on.

If our mean is 16 inches, and the measure is 26 inches, then the difference is 10 inches between them.

a) if the standar deviation is 2 inches, then you are 10/2 = 5 standar deviations from the mean.

b) yes, is really far away from the mean, in a normal distribution a displacement of 5 standar deviations has a very small probability.

c) Now the standar deviation is 7, so now 26 is in the range between 1 standar deviation and 2 standar deviations away from the mean.

Then this you have a 16% of the data, then in this case, 26 inches is not far away from the mean.

50 Points: Name the similar triangles & Prove the similarity with details
Leno4ka [110]

<u>Let's consider the facts at hand</u>:

  • By Vertical Angle Theorem ⇒ ∠BCE = ∠DCF
  • ∠BEC = ∠DFC
  • Sides BE = DF

<u>Based on the diagram, triangles BCE and triangles DCF are similar</u>

   ⇒ based on the Angle-Angle theorem

      ⇒ since ∠BCE = ∠DCF and ∠BEC = ∠DFC

         ⇒ the two triangles are similar

Hope that helps!

<em>Definitions of Theorem I used:</em>

  • <u><em>Vertical Angle Theorem: </em></u><em>opposite angles of two intersecting lines must be equal</em>
  • <u><em>Angle-Angle Theorem:</em></u><em> if two angles of both triangles are equal, then the given triangles must be similar</em>

<em />

Taiga wants to make a circular loop that she can twirl around her body for exercise. He will use a tube that is 2.5 meters long.
Travka [436]

Answer: 0.796 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of circle = 2\pi r , where r=radius

Here, Circumference of loop = 2.5 meters

i.e. 2\pi r=2.5

\Rightarrow\ r=\dfrac{2.5}{2\pi}

\Rightarrow\ r=\dfrac{2.5}{2\times\dfrac{22}{7}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ r=\dfrac{2.5\times7}{2\times22}\\\\\Righttarrow\ r=0.398\ m

Diameter = 2r = 2(0.398) = 0.796 meters

Hence, The diameter of Taiga's exercise hoop = 0.796 meters
