Let:

Larger number = x

Smaller number = y

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

x + y = 49

x - y = 21

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Isolate the x in the first equation. Subtract y from both sides

x + y (-y) = 49 (-y)

x = 49 - y

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that we know what x is, plug in 49 - y (which = x) into x in the other equation.

x - y = 21

(49 - y) -y = 21

Simplify.

49 -2y = 21

Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First subtract 49 from both sides

-2y +49 (-49) = 21 (-49)

-2y = 21 - 49

-2y = -28

Next, divide -2 from both sides to isolate the y

-2y/-2 = -28/-2

y = -28/-2

y = 14

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now that we know what y is, plug into one of the equations.

x + y = 49

x + (14) = 49

Isolate the x. Subtract 14 from both sides

x + 14 (-14) = 49 (-14)

x = 49 (-14)

Simplify

x = 35

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer:

Larger number: 35

Smaller number: 14

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Answer:

V = 128π/3 vu

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that: f(x)₁ = √(4 - x²); f(x)₂ = -√(4 - x²)

knowing that the volume of a solid is V=πR²h, where R² (f(x)₁-f(x)₂) and h=dx, then

dV=π(√(4 - x²)+√(4 - x²))²dx; =π(2√(4 - x²))²dx ⇒

dV= 4π(4-x²)dx , Integrating in both sides

∫dv=4π∫(4-x²)dx , we take ∫(4-x²)dx and we solve

4∫dx-∫x²dx = 4x-(x³/3) evaluated -2≤x≤2 or too 2 (0≤x≤2) , also

∫dv=8π∫(4-x²)dx evaluated 0≤x≤2

V=8π(4x-(x³/3)) = 8π(4.2-(2³/3)) = 8π(8-(8/3)) =(8π/3)(24-8) ⇒

V = 128π/3 vu

The chi-square test for goodness of fit is inappropriate because the variable under study is not categorical.

<h3>How to determine the reason chi square is not appropriate?</h3>

The dataset is given as:

Monday 34

Tuesday 29

Wednesday 32

Thursday 28

Friday 19

The variable of the above dataset is a not a categorical dataset.

One of the conditions of the chi-square test for goodness of fit test is that the variable under study must be categorical.

Hence, the chi-square test for goodness of fit is inappropriate because the variable under study is not categorical.

Help pls! will give brainly! Explain why the value x = 4 is not a solution but x = 6 is a solution to the inequality 2x > 10.

Ket [755]

Answer:

2x > 10 This means that 2 times x has to be bigger than 10 So, 4 times 2 is 8 while 2 times 6 is 12. And 12 is bigger than 10.
