Jade had the following system of equations to help her with a physics problem, but she only needed to know what the sum of x and

y is.
2x+3y=12
2x-y=4
What is the value of x+y?

1 answer:

pav-90 [236]3 years ago

8 0

From the second:

2x-y=4

x=(4+y)/2 and applying this to first:

4+y+3y=12

4y+4=12

4y=8

y=2 and since x=(4+y)/2, x=3 so

x+y=2+3=5

A random sample of eighty-five students in Chicago city high schools takes a course designed to improve SAT scores. Based on the

erica [24]

Answer:

(B) The correct interpretation of this interval is that 90% of the students in the population should have their scores improve by between 72.3 and 91.4 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval is the range the true values fall in under a given <em>confidence level</em>.

Confidence level states the probability that a random chosen sample performs the surveyed characteristic in the range of confidence interval. Thus,

90% confidence interval means that there is 90% probability that the statistic (in this case SAT score improvement) of a member of the population falls in the confidence interval.

Subtract 43 from 20 raised to the 7th power; then multiply by 3.

viktelen [127]

Hi there! :)

<u>Answer:</u>

Subtract 43 from 20 raised to the 7th power; then multiply by 3. The answer is: <u>3,839,999,871</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

"Subtract" means to take away a number from another.

" 20 raised to the 7th power" is the same thing as 20 exponent 7: $20^{7}$

SO, you want to take away 43 from $20^{7}$ and then multiply the answer by 3:

( $20^{7}$ - 43) × 3

$20^{7} =$ 1,280,000,000

(1,280,000,000 - 43) × 3

1,280,000,000 - 43 = 1,279,999,957

1,279,999,957 × 3

1,279,999,957 × 3 = <u>3,839,999,871</u>

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
