Which equation shows the substitution method being used to solve the system of linear equations?

2 answers:

6 0

The equation
(y + 5) + y = 6
shows the substitution method being used to solve the system of linear equations. So the correct option among all the options given in the question is option "D".
For a better explanation, let us first write down the two equations given in the question.
x + 5 = 6
and
x = y + 5
Now the thing that has been done is that the value of x in the first equation has been replaced by the value of x that is given in the second equation. this is actually the substitution method of solving equations.

Your answer is D. You're welcome ;-) (Not trying to sound sarcastic, just I wanted to say you're welcome now than never)

Answer:

1. The probability that x will be more than 25 is 0.6305.

2. The 55th percentile is 26.38.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean 26 and standard deviation 3.

This means that $\mu = 26, \sigma = 3$

1 Find the probability that x will be more than 25.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 25. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{25 - 26}{3}$

$Z = -0.333$

$Z = -0.333$ has a p-value of 0.3695.

1 - 0.3695 = 0.6305.

The probability that x will be more than 25 is 0.6305.

2 Find the 55th percentile of x.

This is X when Z has a p-value of 0.55, so X when Z = 0.125.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$0.125 = \frac{X - 26}{3}$

$X - 26 = 0.125*3$

$Z = 26.38$

The 55th percentile is 26.38.

Find [-4/5]×3/7×15/16×[-14/9]

dangina [55]

The given expression is $\frac{-4}{5} \times \frac{3}{7} \times \frac{15}{16} \times (\frac{-14}{9})$ .

We need to simplify the given expression.

<h3>What is a rational number?</h3>

In mathematics, a rational number is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers, a numerator p and a non-zero denominator q.

Now group the rational numbers $(\frac{-4}{5}\times \frac{15}{16} ) \times (\frac{3}{7}\times (\frac{-14}{9}))$

$=(\frac{-4}{16}\times \frac{15}{5} ) \times (\frac{3}{9}\times (\frac{-14}{7}))$

$=(\frac{-1}{4}\times \frac{3}{1} ) \times (\frac{1}{3}\times (\frac{-2}{1}))$

$=(\frac{-3}{4} ) \times (\frac{-2}{3})=\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, the simplified value of the given expression is $\frac{1}{2}$ .

1. Find 3 equivalent fraction for the following: a) 5/6 b) 7/11 c) 9/7

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find equivalent fractions, multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same table.

a) 5/6

$\frac{5*2}{6*2}=\frac{10}{12}\\\\\frac{5*3}{6*3}=\frac{15}{18}\\\\\frac{5*4}{6*4}=\frac{20}{24}$

b) 7/11

$\frac{7*3}{11*3}=\frac{21}{33}\\\\\frac{7*4}{11*4}=\frac{28}{44}\\\\\frac{7*5}{11*5}=\frac{35}{55}$

c)9/7

$\frac{9*2}{7*2}=\frac{18}{14}\\\\\frac{9*5}{7*5}=\frac{45}{35}\\\\\frac{9*10}{7*10}=\frac{90}{70}$
