What is the solution of this system 4x+2y=-2 -5x+y=34

Mathematics

Kitty [74]3 years ago

Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Solve the bottom equation for y
  • You would just add 5x to both sides so that it cancels out leaving y = 5x + 34

    2. Put your new y equation into your top equation (4x + 2y = -2).  It should now be 4x + 2(5x + 34) = -2.

    3. Then, solve for x.

  • Distribute the 2 into 5x and 34. (Should now be 4x + 10x + 68 = -2).
  • Add the like terms - 4x and 10x. (Now 14x + 68 = -2).
  • Subtract 68 from both sides to get 14x on its own. (Now 14x = -70).
  • Divide both sides by positive 14 to get x on its own and the answer as to what x represents. (x = -5).

Hope that helps!

galina1969 [7]

Given:

Mean, μ = 22

Standard deviation, σ = 7

Let's answer the following questions.

a. Given:

Sample size, n = 25

Let's find the probability that the sample mean is between 21.5 and 22.5.

We have:

\begin{gathered} P(21.5Thus, we have:[tex]\begin{gathered} P(\frac{21.5-22}{\frac{7}{\sqrt[]{25}}}Using the standard normal table (NORMSDIST), we have:[tex]\begin{gathered} P(0.3571)=0.6395 \\ P(-0.3571)\text{ = }-0.3605 \\  \\ P(1.7857)-P(-0.3571)=0.6395-0.3605=0.279 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the probability that sample mean is between 21.5 and 22.5 is 0.279

b. Given:

n = 25

Let's find the probability that the sample mean is between 21 and 22 minutes.

We have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(21Using the standard normal table, we have:[tex]\begin{gathered} P(-0.714286Therefore, the probability that sample mean is between 21 and 22 is 0.2625

c. Given:

n = 144

Let's find the probability the sample mean is between 21.5 and 22.5

[tex]\begin{gathered} P(21.5Therefore, the probability that sample mean is between 21.5 and 22.5 given a sample of 144 is 0.6086

d. Given:

Sample size in a = 25

Sample size in c = 144

The sample size in c is greater than the sample size in a so the standard error of the mean in (c) should be less than the standard error in (a).

As the standard error values become more concentrated
