Answer:

in this method a variable is expressed in terms of another variable from one equation and it is substituted in remaining equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

solve:x+2y=9 and 3x-y=13.

x+ 2y=9…be the first equation

3x-y=13…be the second equation

from first equation

x=9-2y…be the third equation substituting value of x from third equation in second equation, we get

3(9-2y)-y=13

or, 27-6y-y=13

or, y=2

now,

substituting value of y in third equation, we get,

x=9-2×2

=9-4

=5

the required value of x and y are 5&2

15 points please help!! :)<br> Find the value of x.
andriy [413]

Answer:

Question 4: -11

Question 5: -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Four

Every triangle has 180 degrees.

So all three angles add to 180

<em><u>Equation</u></em>

60 + 80 + x + 51 = 180

<em><u>Solution</u></em>

Combine the like terms on the left. This is the first time I've seen x be a negative value. Almost all of the time it isn't, which should make you wonder.

191 + x = 180    

Subtract 191 from both sides.

191 - 191 + x = 180 - 191

x = - 11

Five

If a triangle is a right triangle and one of the angles is 45, then so is the other one.

<em><u>Proof</u></em>

a + 45 + 90 = 180         Combine like terms on the left

a + 135 = 180                Subtract 135 on both sides.

a + 135-135=180-135    Combine the like terms

a = 45

<em><u>Statement</u></em>

That means 52 + x = 45 and here is another negative answer. Subtract 52 from both sides

52 - 52 + x = 45 - 52    Combine like terms.

x  = - 7

The score of golfers for a particular course follows a normal distribution that has a mean of 73 and a standard deviation of 3.
Artemon [7]

Answer:

P(X \geq 74) = 0.3707

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the score of golfers for a particular course follows a normal distribution that has a mean of 73 and a standard deviation of 3.

Let X = Score of golfers

So, X ~ N(\mu=73,\sigma^{2}=3^{2})

The z score probability distribution is given by;

           Z = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = population mean = 73

           \sigma = standard deviation = 3

So, the probability that the score of golfer is at least 74 is given by = P(X \geq 74)

 P(X \geq 74) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \geq \frac{74-73}{3} ) = P(Z \geq 0.33) = 1 - P(Z < 0.33)

                                               =  1 - 0.62930 = 0.3707                  

Therefore, the probability that the score of golfer is at least 74 is 0.3707 .
