Eliminating by multiplying X+3y=1 -5x+4y=-24

Mathematics

Answer:

y = -1 x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(X+3y=1) 5 Multiply this equation by 5 to cancel out the x

-5x+4y=-24

-5x + 4y= -24

+ 5x + 15y = 5 Add both equations together

19y = -19 Divide both sides by 19

y = -1

Plug -1 for y into one of the equations

x + 3(-1) = 1 Multiply 3(-1)

x - 3 = 1

+ 3 + 3 Add 3 to both sides

x = 4

A road crew can pave 2/5 km in 1 1/2 hours.how many km of road can they pave in 10 hours?

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

8/3 km

Step-by-step explanation:

we can represent the given information on a table:

Kilometers time (hours)

2/5 ⇔ 1 1/2

and since we want to know how many kilometers (x) will be paved on 10 hours:

Kilometers time (hours)

2/5 ⇔ 1 1/2

x ⇔ 10

The relationship these 3 numbers have can be described by using the <u>rule of three,</u> which is to multiply the cross quantities on the table (2/5 by 10) and then divide by the remaining amount (1 1/2):

x = $\frac{2}{5}*10$ ÷ $1\frac{1}{2}$

x = $\frac{20}{5}$ ÷ $1\frac{1}{2}$

we use $1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}$

x = $\frac{20}{5}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{2}$

and we make the division:

x = $\frac{20}{5}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{2}$ = $\frac{20*2}{5*3}=\frac{40}{15}$

we simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator both by 5, and we get the result:

x = $\frac{8}{3}$

thus, in 10 hours the crew will pave 8/3 km. Which is about 2.66 km.

To determine the average price of hotel rooms in Atlanta, a sample of 49 hotels was selected and the sample mean price of hotel

seraphim [82]

Answer:

Standard error of top enclose y = 2.29

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Standard error = σ/√n

σ is the population standard deviation = $16

n is random number of samples = 49 hotels

Hence,

Standard error = 16/√49

= 16/7

= 2.2857142857

Approximately = 2.29

Therefore, the Standard error of top enclose y = 2.29
