Solve for 1 variable
solve for x in second

add 2y to both sides
x=2y-5
sub 2y-5 for x in first equation
2(2y-5)-5y=-14
4y-10-5y=-14
-10-y=-14
add 10 to both sides
-y=-4
times -1
y=4

sub
x=2y-5
x=2(4)-5
x=8-5
x=3

x=3
y=4
(3,4)

Answer:

The mean of the sampling distribution for the sample proportion when taking samples of size 500 from this population is equal to 0.248.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$
