Answer:

Solving below systems of equations using linear combination method we get

x = -7

y =  5

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear combinations which is also commonly known as the addition method is used for solving the system of equations without graphs

Step 1: arrange the equation in standard form

2x + 3y = 1----------------------(1)

2x +  y  =  -9--------------------(2)

Step 2: Set one of the coefficient to opposite sides

So lets multiply eq(2) with negative sign, so

2x + 3y = 1

-2x -  y  =  9

Step 3: Perform Addition

2x + 3y = 1

-2x -  y  =  9

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

0x +2y = 10

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

Step 4: Solve for y

2y =10

y =\frac{10}{2}

y = 5

Step 5: Substitute y value in equation(1)

2x + 3(5) = 1

2x + 15 =1

2x = 1-15

2x =-14

x= \frac{-14}{2}

x = -7

Someone pls help me!!! Will give brainliest! A survey of 1000 students found that 41% of the surveyed students were freshmen, 31
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

<em>(A) 560 students</em>

<em>(B) P = 0.41</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>(Please check the attached picture for more details)</em>

As given, a survey of 1000 students found that:

41% of the surveyed students were freshmen

=> 1000 x 41/100 = 410 surveyed students were freshmen

31% were juniors

=> 1000 x 31/100 = 310 surveyed students were junior

67% of surveyed students lived on the college campus

=> 1000 x 67/100 = 670 surveyed students lived on the campus

<em>(A) 260 of the surveyed students were freshmen living on the campus</em>

=> A = 410 - 260 = 150 surveyed students were freshmen NOT living on the campus

=> B = 670 - 260 = 410 surveyed students were not freshmen living on the campus

=> The number of surveyed students who were either freshmen or living on the campus:

N = A + B = 150 + 410 = 560

<em>(B)  From a previous survey you know that of interviewed juniors, only 23% live on campus (we don't really need this)</em>

=>The probability a surveyed student is a junior or someone that lives on campus: P = (670 - 260)/1000 = 0.41

I hope this helps!

Find the interest principle 8000 rate .06 compounded annually years 3
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

535.07

Step-by-step explanation:

S=P(1+ i) ^n

i= nominal rate of interest / number of compounding periods

i =. 06/12

=0.18

Divided by 100

=0.0018

n- number of times interest is given per year x the number of years

n=12x3

=36

8000(1+0.0018)^36

=8535.07

Interest

8535.07 - 8000

=535.07
