Step-by-step explanation:
First get x on its own:
Subtract 3 from each side
y - 3 = 2x
Divide through by 2
y/2 - 3/2 = x
or x = y/2 - 3/2
Now simply switch labels: x↔y
y = x/2 - 3/2
Answer: Choice B) (24,10)
---------------------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
2x - 4y = 8
2( x ) - 4y = 8
2( 3y-6 ) - 4y = 8 ... notice x has been replaced with 3y-6
2(3y)+2(-6) - 4y = 8
6y-12 - 4y = 8
2y-12 = 8
2y-12+12 = 8+12 ... add 12 to both sides
2y = 20
2y/2 = 20/2 ... divide both sides by 2
y = 10
If y = 10, then
x = 3y-6
x = 3*10-6 ... replace y with 10
x = 30-6
x = 24
Put together, the solution is (x,y) = (24,10)
which is why the answer is choice B
As a check, we can plug (x,y) = (24,10) into each equation
x = 3y-6
24 = 3*10 - 6
24 = 30 - 6
24 = 24 ... true equation
and similarly for the second equation as well
2x-4y = 8
2*24 - 4*10 = 8
48 - 40 = 8
8 = 8 ... true equation
Both equations are true when (x,y) = (24,10) so the solution is confirmed

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a) 2.0702
b) 2.07
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Sample, n = 840
standard deviation, σ = 60
a) The standard deviation of the sampling distribution, will be:
= 2.0702
Standard deviation of the sampling distribution is 2.0702
b) According to the 68 part of the 68-95-99.7 rule, 68% of all values of x fall within 1 standard deviation on either side of the unknown mean μ.
Therefore, missing number will be:
= 1 * 2.0702
= 2.0702 ≈ 2.07
Answer:
