Well, to solve for x, you have to isolate it. I will show how to solve it, step-by-step below:
2x+3y=12
2x+3y-3y=12-3y
2x=-3y+12 ...divide both sides by 2
x=-3/2y+6

Now, to completely solve for x, you need to find what y is equal to. But to solve for y, you have to "get rid" of the x. You can use "-3/2y+6" in place of the x.
2(-3/2y+6)+3y=12
-6/2y+12+3y=12 ...simplify
-3y+12+3y=12 ...move the 12 to the other side
-3y+12-12+3y=12-12
-3y+3y=0 ...add like things
0=0

...oh. There is no solution...

Let me try doing y first...
2x+3y=12
3y=-2x+12
y=-2/3x+4

2x+3(-2/3x+4)=12
2x-6/3x+12=12
2x-2x=0
0=0

...yo...what is going on... are you sure you gave us the right numbers... no typos?

A random sample of 8 recent college graduates found that starting salaries for architects in New York City had a mean of $42,653
ycow [4]

Answer:

C. (36337.32, 48968.68)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96*\frac{9114}{\sqrt{8}} = 6315.68

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 42653 - 6315.68 = 36337.32.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 42653 + 6315.68 = 48968.68.

So the correct answer is:

C. (36337.32, 48968.68)

Two forces with magnitudes 300 pounds and 450 pounds, with an angle of 60° between them, act upon an object. What is the approxi
kifflom [539]

Answer:

653.84 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

To make the computation simple, assume the 450 lb force acts along the x axis in the positive direction.

The x component of the 300 lb force is 300cos(60)=150 lbs.

The y component of the 300 lb force is 300sin(60)=300*\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} =259.81\\ lbs.

The x component of the total force is the sum of the x components of the two forces.

Fx=150+450=600

Fy=259.81

The net force is obtained using the Pythagorean theorem, since the two force components are perpindicular.

F=Sqrt(Fx^2+Fy^2)=Sqrt(360000+67501.24)=Sqrt(427501)=653.84 lbs.
