Answer:

x = 2

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Substitution: 2x - y = 5 3x + 2y = 4

2x - y = 5

-y = -2x + 5

y=2x - 5

3x + 2 (2x - 5) = 4 3x + 2y = 4

3x + (4x - 10) = 4 3(2) + 2y = 4

7x - 10 = 4 6 + 2y = 4

7x = 14 2y = -2

x = 2 y = -1

Answer:

x=2 and y=−1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x−y=5

2x−y+−2x=5+−2x

−y=−2x+5

−y

−1

−2x+5

−1

y=2x−5

substitute 2x−5 for y in 3x+2y=4

3x+2y=4

3x+2(2x−5)=4

7x−10=4

7x−10+10=4+10(Add 10 to both sides)

7x=14

(Divide both sides by 7)

x=2

Substitute 2 for x in y=2x−5:

y=2x−5

y=(2)(2)−5

y=−1(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Solve each by graphing.<br>1. y = x - 2 <br><br>Y = -1/2x + 4

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In the graph of y = x2, the point (0, 0) is called the vertex. The vertex is the minimum point in a parabola that opens upward. In a parabola that opens downward, the vertex is the maximum point. We can graph a parabola with a different vertex.

Breyers is a major producer of ice cream and would like to test the hypothesis that the average American consumes more than 17 o

zhenek [66]

Answer:

The p-value would be 0.0939

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set a standard t-test for the Null Hypothesis that $H_0: 18.2\geq 17$

The test statistic then takes the form

$t=\frac{18.2-17}{3.9/\sqrt{15}}=1.317$

with this value we then can calculate the probability that is left to the right of this value $P(X>1.317)$ . From theory we know that t follows a standard normal distribution. Then $P(X>1.317)=0.0939$ which is smaller than the p-value set by Breyers of 0.10

A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers. The number 8 is a rational number because it can be written as the fraction 8/1
