Answer:

[2]    x = -5y - 4

// Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [1]

  [1]    2•(-5y-4) - 5y = 22

  [1]     - 15y = 30

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

  [1]    15y = - 30

  [1]    y = - 2

// By now we know this much :

   x = -5y-4

   y = -2

// Use the  y  value to solve for  x

   x = -5(-2)-4 = 6

Solution :

{x,y} = {6,-2}

A farmer was counting his chickens and pigs. He had 16 animals in all and counted 54 legs. How many chickens does he have
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

5 chickens

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set chickens and pigs with variables "c" and "p" respectively.

We know there a 16 animals in all, so there are:

c+p=16

We know there are 54 legs and chickens have 2 legs and pigs have 4 legs each:

2c+4p=54

Now we have our system of equations:

c+p=16

2c+4p=54

We are trying to find the number of chickens, so we write the first equation in respect to c.

p=16-c

Substituting the first derived equation to equation two:

2c+64-4c=54

Simplifying:

64-2c=54

2c=10

c=5

So there are 5 chickens.

A survey found that 8 out of 10 parents approved of the new principal’s performance. If 4 parents name are chosen with replaceme
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

The probability is 0.044

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the probability that the new principal’s performance is approved.

This is obtainable from the survey and it is 8/10 = 0.8

Let q be the probability that the new principal’s performance is disproved.

That will be;

1 - q = 1- 0.8 = 0.2

To calculate the probability that 14 parents names are chosen at random and they all

approve of the principal’s performance, we use the Bernoulli approximation of the binomial theorem.

That will be;

14C14 * p^14 * q^0

= 1 * 0.8^14 * 0.2^0

= 0.043980465111 which is approximately 0.044

for your career project, you plan to design ans sell t-shirts. During the first 5 weeks of selling the shirts, the functions f(s
stepladder [879]

Using translation concepts, we have that:

  • The new profit equation is f(x) = (8s/3) - 20, which is a vertical stretch by a factor of 2 of the graph of f(s).
  • Selling 300 shirts, the new profit is of $780.

<h3>What is a translation?</h3>

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction either in it’s definition or in it’s domain. Examples are shift left/right or bottom/up, vertical or horizontal stretching or compression, and reflections over the x-axis or the y-axis.

For this problem, the profit function is given by:

f(s) = 4/3s - 20

To double the function, we multiply the slope by 2, hence the new profit equation is:

f(s) = 8/3s - 20.

This new function is a vertical stretch by a factor of 2 of the graph of f(s).

The new profit selling 300 shirts is given by:

f(300) = (8/3) x 300 - 20 = 8 x 100 - 20 = $780.
