Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

A commutative function means that when you insert one function in space of x in the other function, they will equal x. The equation is f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x

So, 2(\frac{x+1}{a}) - 1 = \frac{(2x-1)+1}{a}

If you multiply both sides by <em>a</em>, you get   2<em>a</em>(\frac{x+1}{a}) - a = (2x-1)+1

Simplify it                                                   2<em>a</em>(\frac{x+1}{a}) - <em>a</em> = 2x

Add <em>a</em> to both sides                                    2<em>a</em>(\frac{x+1}{a})  = 2x +<em>a</em>

The two <em>a</em>s on the left cancel out                   2(x+1)=2x+<em>a</em>

Distribute the 2                                               2x+2=2x+<em>a</em>

Then subtract 2x from both sides                        2 = <em>a</em>

Therefore, <em>a</em> = 2

Hope this helps!

5x - y = -7<br> 4x + 2y = – 14
shtirl [24]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf \ \ x=-2, \ y=-3 \  \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

<u>I assume that you want to solve this system of two equations</u>

   (1) 5x - y  = -7

   (2) 4x + 2y = -14

We will multiply (1) by 2 and add to (2) so that we can eliminate the terms in y

2*(1)+(2) gives

   10x - 2y + 4x + 2y = -7*2 -14 = -14 - 14 = -28

   <=>

   14x = - 28 we can divide by 14 both parts

   x = -28/14 = -2

and then we replace x in (1)

   5*(-2)-y=-7

   -10-y=-7 add 7

   -10-y+7=0

   -3-y=0 add y

   -3 = y

which is equivalent to y = -3

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Use the five steps of hypothesis testing.

Step 1: The aim of the research is to conduct the five steps of hypothesis testing.

Step 2:

Null hypothesis: H0 u= 4

Population mean: H1 u = 4

Alternate hypothesis: u ≠ 4

Population mean: u ≠ 4

Step 3 and step 4 are attached.

Step 5: Based on the calculation, the calculated value of t is less than the t critical value, therefore, the null hypothesis will be failed to be rejected.

2. Sketch the distributions involved

This has been attached.

3. Explain the logic of what you did to a person who is familiar with hypothesis testing, but knows nothing about t tests of any kind.

The distribution is "t".

The means is tested by using T-test.

Chi-square is used to test the single variance.
