How do I solve this equation

Anestetic [448]

-x - y = 8
2x - y = -1

Ok, we are going to solve this in 2 parts. First we have to solve for one of the variables in one of the equation in terms of the other variable. I like to take the easiest equation first and try to avoid fractions, so let's use the first equation and solve for x.

-x - y = 8 add y to each side
-x = 8 + y divide by -1
x = -8 - y

So now we have a value for x in terms of y that we can use to substitute into the other equation. In the other equation we are going to put -8 - y in place of the x.

2x - y = -1
2(-8 - y) - y = -1 multiply the 2 through the parentheses
-16 - 2y - y = -1 combine like terms
-16 - 3y = -1 add 16 to both sides
-3y = 15 divide each side by -3
y = -5

Now we have a value for y. We need to plug it into either of the original equations then solve for x. I usually choose the most simple equation.

-x - y = 8
-x - (-5) = 8 multiply -1 through the parentheses
-x + 5 = 8 subtract 5 from each side
-x = 3 divide each side by -1
x = -3

So our solution set is

(-3, -5)

That is the point on the grid where the 2 equations are equal, so that is the place where they intersect.

Drupady [299]

Mu=80, sigma=39, X=85
Z=(X-mu)/sigma = 5/39=0.128=0.13
P(X<=85)= 0.5517 (from Z-table)
so, P(X>85)=1-0.5517=0.4483 approx. thats 44.8% probability.
