Mathematics
1 answer:
Leto [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x = -76 , y = 57

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 6y = -38

3x + 4y = 0

------------------

use 4 to multiply equation 1

5x(4) - 6y(4) = - 38(4)

20x -24y = -152

----------------------

use 6 to multiply equation 2

3x(6) + 4y(6) = 0(6)

18x + 24y = 0

------------------------

20x - 24y = -152

18x + 24y = 0

----------------------

2x = -152

----------------

divide 2 by both sides

x = -76

--------------------

to find y, slot in the of x to either equation 1 or 2

--------------------------------

equation 2

3x + 4y = 0

3(-76) + 4y = 0

------------------------

-228 + 4y = 0

4y = 228 - 0

4y = 228

---------------------

divide both sides by 4

----------------------------------

y = 57

A cell phone company says that a fully charged battery lasts 14 hours. In reality, each battery behaves a little differently. Fo
gregori [183]

Answer:

The percentage is 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The  mean is  \mu  =  14 \  hours

     The  standard deviation is \sigma =  1 \  hour

Generally on the normal distribution curve the mean divides the curve into  two. with the half to the left of the mean (50% to the left )representing the percentage of the batteries that will last less than 14 hours and  the area under the curve to the right (50% to the right)representing the percentage of batteries that will last longer than mean (14 hours )

Hence the percentage of the cell phone batteries that will be expected to last longer than 14 hours is 50%
