Equation 1)  2x - 3y = -1
Equation 2)  y = x -1

Rearrange equation 2 so that x and y are on the same side. To do so, you subtract x from both sides.

2)  -x + y = -1
1)  2x - 3y = -1

Multiply ALL of equation 2 by 2.

2)  2(-x + y = -1)

Simplify.

2)  -2x + 2y = -1
1)  2x - 3y = -1

Add equations together.

-y = 0

So, y = 0

Plug in 0 for y in the first equation.

2x - 3y = -1

2x - 3(0) = -1

Simplify.

2x - 0 = -1

2x = -1

Divide both sides by 2.

x = -1/2

(-1/2 , 0)

Let F(x,y)=1+sqrt(4-y^2). . (a) Evaluate F(3,1). (b) Find and sketch the domain of F. (c) Find the range of F
charle [14.2K]
The goal of this function is to get  a positive value under the square root sign so that the value would not be invalid. Evaluating F(3,1), the value is 1 + <span>sqrt(4-1^2) or equal to 1 + sqrt of 3.</span> In this case, the domain would be x equal to any numbers and the range equal to numbers from -2 ≤ y ≤ 2.

morpeh [17]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a study of the relationship between geographical mobility (number of times a person has changed residences) and number of friends, Pearson's r^2 is reported as .40.

r square, being the coefficient of determination explains the variablity of one variable due to the variability of the other.  Here Mobility explains 40% variation in the number of friends is right answer.

Option B is wrong because r = ±6324, so cannot say positive or negative.

Similarly option c is wrong because we are unsure whether negative correlation.  Option d is wrong since 16% is not right .

castortr0y [4]
Since your second pick is affected by your first pick & your third pick is affected by the first two, it is dependent. 

First pick: 18 marbles, 3 are red, so odds are 3/18 = 1/6 

Second pick: 17 marbles, 8 are blue, odds are 8/17 

Third pick: 16 marbles, 7 are black, odds are 7/16 

<span>1/6 * 8/17 * 7/16 = 56/1632 = 7/204 & as mentioned before it's dependent</span>
