-4x - 5y = 7

3x + 5y = -14

You can add these two equations together straightaway since the y-terms have opposite coefficients.

-4x - 5y = 7

3x + 5y = -14

+___________

-x - 0 = -7

-x = -7

x = 7

Substitute 7 for x into either of the original equations and solve algebraically to find y.

3x + 5y = -14

3(7) + 5y = -14

21 + 5y = -14

21 = -14 - 5y

35 = -5y

-7 = y

Finally, check work by substituting both x- and y-values into both original equations.

-4x - 5y = 7

-4(7) - 5(-7) = 7

-28 + 35 = 7

7 = 7

3x + 5y = -14

3(7) + 5(-7) = -14

21 - 35 = -14

-14 = -14

Answer:

x = 7 and y = -7; (7, -7).

Use the points A (4,4) and B(4,-5). Complete the description of segment AB and find its length.
Scrat [10]

Use the points A(4, 4) and B(4, −5)

(1) (a) From two points , we will get a vertical line when 'x' values are same and horizontal line segment when 'y' values are same

Here in A(4, 4) and B(4, −5) , the x values are same so the segment AB is a Vertical . The length is the difference between y values ( 4 -(-5)) = 9

Segment AB is a Vertical segment that is 9 units long.

(2) Describe the image of segment AB under the transformation

(x, y) ----> (x, 2y)

A(4, 4) -----> (4, 8)

and B(4, −5) ---> (4, -10)

'x' values are same so line AB is Vertical. The length is the difference between y values ( 8 -(-10)) = 18

The image of segment AB is a Vertical segment that is 18 units long.

(3) Describe the image of segment AB under the transformation

(x, y) ----> (x + 2, y)

A(4, 4) -----> (6, 4)

and B(4, −5) ---> (6, -5)

'x' values are same so line AB is Vertical. The length is the difference between y values ( 4 -(-5)) = 9

The image of AB is a Vertical segment

2 units to the right of the original segment that is

9 units long.

In​ basketball, some baskets are worth two points. Others are worth three points. In one​ game, the ratio of​ three-point basket
Alex787 [66]

The number of three-point tries is 36.

<h3>What are ratios?</h3>

Ratio expresses the relationship between two or more numbers. It shows the frequency of the number of times that one value is contained within other value(s).

<h3 /><h3>What is the number of three point tries?</h3>

The first step is to determine the total number of tries and baskets: (27 X 7)/3 = 63

Number of three-point tries = (4/7) x 63 = 36

Determine the point estimate of the population proportion, the margin of error
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

\hat p=0.645\\\\ME=0.233\\\\x=645 \ individuals

Step-by-step explanation:

-Given the boundaries as 0.412 and 0.878

-\hat p is the point estimate for the population proportion and is calculated as follows:

\hat p=\frac{Upper \ Bound+Lower \ Bound}{2}\\\\=\frac{0.878+0.412}{2}\\\\=0.645\\\\

#The margin of error, ME can be calculated for the confidence intervals using the formula:

ME=\frac{Upper \ Bound-Lower \ Bound}{2}\\\\=\frac{0.878-0.412}{2}\\\\=0.233

#The number of individuals in the sample is the product of the point estimate and population size:

\hat p=\frac{x}{n}\\\\x=\hat pn\\\\=0.645\times 1000\\\\=645

Hence, there are 645 individuals in the sample.
