Find the intersection between thelines 2x + 3y = 5 and 3x + 4y = 6

An intersection point, is a shared coordinate. If the equations share a coordinate we can say they are "equal". There are two ways (algebraically) to find this point. Substitution or linear combination. Because the coefficients are different, let's use linear combination

First stack the equations on top of each other.

2x + 3y = 5
3x + 4y = 6

Next let's manipulate one or both of the equations to get coefficients that are equal, but opposite. For this I'm going to turn the coefficient of x into 6 and -6 respectively by multiplying the first equation by 3 and the second by -2 to get 

6x + 9y = 15
-6x -8y = -12

Now we can combine the equations with addition and the x's will cancel leaving a single variable (which we can solve)

y = 3

Now plug this back into either original equation to find the x coordinate.

2x + 3(3) = 5

2x + 9 = 5

2x = -4

x = -2.

So your intersection point is (-2,3)

Use the formula to find the standard error of the distribution of differences in sample means, x¯1-x¯2. Samples of size 100 from
garri49 [273]

Answer:

standard error = 2.11

Step-by-step explanation:

First we stablish the data that we have for each sample:

<u>Population 1</u>                                          <u>Population </u>2

n₁ = 100                                                     n₂ = 90

x¯1= 95                                                    x¯2 = 75

σ₁ = 14                                                        σ₂ = 15                  

To calculate the standard error of each sample we would use the formulas:

σ = σ₁/√n₁

σx¯2 =  σ₂/√n₂

Now, in order to obtain the standard error of the differences between the two sample means we combine those two formulas to obtain this:

σx¯1 - σ x¯2  = √(σ₁²/n₁ + σ₂²/n₂ )

So as you can see, we used the square root to simplify and now we require the variance of each sample (σ²):

σ₁² = (14)² = 196

σ₂² = (15)² = 225

Now we can proceed to calculate the standard error of the distribution of differences in sample means:

σx¯1 - σx¯2  = √(196/100 + 225/90) =  2.11

This gives an estimate about how far is the difference between the sample means from the actual difference between the populations means.

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to y-3x=2 and that passes through (6,1)?
Artemon [7]

Try this solution (analytic method):

1. if new line is parallel to the given one (y=3x+2) it means the new line has a form y=3x+b, where b - number.

2. In order to calculate 'b', it need to substitute the coordinates of point (6;1) into the equation of the new line:

1=3*6+b, ⇒ b=-17.

3. If to make up the equation of the new line:

y=3x-17

Answer: A
