Solve the system of linear equations with substitution;

x+4y=14   Equation 1
<span> 3x+7y=22 Equation 2

Solve Equation 1 for x 

x + 4y = 14     Isolate the variable by moving the second variable to the other side using the inverse operation which in this case is subtraction. So.....
x + 4y =  14
 <span>  -  4y = -4y
</span> x        = 14 - 4y

Now insert your answer above into Equation 2.

3x + 7y = 22
3(14 -4y) + 7y = 22           Now distribute to eliminate parenthesis
42 - 12y + 7y = 22            

 42 - 5y = 22                      Combine like terms and remember the 12 is  
-42         -42                       technically negative
      -5y  =  -20                   Isolate the variable which in this case we divide
   -5y/-5 =  -20/-5
       y =  4

Going back to Equation 1. Insert the know variable to solve for x.

x+4y=14   Equation 1

x + 4(4) = 14
x + 16 = 14          Isolate the variable by subtracting 16 from both sides
  - 16    -16
x = -2

The solution is an ordered pair (x,y) ........ (-2, 4).

Check your work by inserting the ordered pair into either of the equations.

x+4y=14   Equation 1

-2 + 4(4) = 14
-2 + 16 = 14
        14 = 14

<span>3x+7y=22 Equation 2

3(-2) + 7(4) = 22
-6 + 28 = 22
       22 = 22</span>

</span>

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

.01%*

Step-by-step explanation:

Individually, they both have a rate of failure of 1%.

.01 x .01 = .0001

Therefore they have a combined probability of failure of .01%

*Disclaimer!!

I am not the best at this area in math so I would still reference against someone else's answer, but this is my best effort :)

Which is a greater slope 3 or -4
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

3 is greater than -4, but the line with slope -4 is steeper than the line with slope 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 is greater than -4, so strictly speaking, a slope of 3 is greater than a slope of -4.

On the other hand, the steepness of a line depends on the absolute value of the slope.

|3| = 3

|-4| = 4

Since 4 > 3, the line with slope -4 is steeper than the line with slope 3.

Answer: 3 is greater than -4, but the line with slope -4 is steeper than the line with slope 3.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (E)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution to the question

Let us recall from given question that,

H0:p=0.80

Ha:p≠0.80 (which is the two tailed test)

For the p-value we have,

P-value: Let us assume that the null hypothesis is true, then the probability of observing the sample statistics or the  more extreme,

Therefore if p= 0.80, the probability of observing or detecting proportion of samples is of at least 0.84 or at most 0.76 is 0.273.

Determine if the sequence is arithmetic. If it is, find the term named in the problem.
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

a_{39} <em>= 279</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

a_{n} = a_{1} + (n - 1)d

d = a_{2} - a_{1}

~~~~~~~~~

d = - 17 + 25 = - 9 + 17 = - 1 + 9 = 8

a_{39} = - 25 + 8(39 - 1) = 279

a_{39} <em>= 279</em><em> </em>
