How do you eliminate 6x-12y=24 along with -x-6y=4

1 answer:

5 0

First you need to multiply by a factor that will givr you the same value in one of the x or y value.
(6x-12y=24)1
+(-x-6y=4)-2
6x-12y=24
=2x+12y=-8
8x=16÷8
x=2
now that you have x, substitute x by 2 in one of the eqauations
-2-6y=4
+2. +2
=-6y=6
÷-6. ÷-6
y=-1

Standard error (SE)
$se= \frac{s}{ \sqrt{n} }$
Or

$se = \sqrt{ \frac{ {s}^{2} }{n} }$

Therefore, SE of the mean = (8)/(2) =4

Find the first, fourth, and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule.

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

The answer is option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The arithmetic sequence is given by

$A(n) = - 6 + (n - 1)( \frac{1}{5} )$

where n is the number of terms

For the first term

n = 1

So we have

$A(1) = - 6 + (1 - 1)( \frac{1}{5} )$

$= - 6 + (0)( \frac{1}{5} )$

$= - 6$

For the fourth term

n = 4

$A(4) = - 6 + (4 - 1)( \frac{1}{5} )$

$= - 6 + (3)( \frac{1}{5} )$

$= - 5 \frac{2}{5}$

For the tenth term

n = 10

$A(10) = - 6 + (10 - 1)( \frac{1}{5} )$

$= - 6 + (9)( \frac{1}{5} )$

$= - 4 \frac{1}{5}$

Hope this helps you

Answer:

y = 3x +1
y = x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom dot and the top dot are on a line with two other dots, the one at (0, 1) and the one at (1, 4). That line has a rise/run = 3/1. The point (0, 1) is its y-intercept, so its equation can be ...

y = 3x +1

The left dot and the lower right dot are on a line with three other dots. One of those (1, 4) is shared with the previous line. This line has a rise/run = 1/1. The point (0, 3) is its y-intercept, so its equation can be ...

y = x + 3

These two equations capture all of the coins.
