<em><u>Question:</u></em>

The equations in this system were added to solve for x. What is the value of x? -2x+y=8 5x-y=-5 3x=3

Options:

x = negative 3

x = negative 1

x = 1

x = 3

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

The value of x is 1

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

<em><u>Given system of equations are:</u></em>

-2x + y = 8 ------- eqn 1

5x - y = -5 ------- eqn 2

The above equations are added to solve for "x"

Add eqn 1 and eqn 2

-2x + y + 5x - y = 8 - 5

Combine the like terms

-2x + 5x + y - y = 3

Add the like terms

3x + 0 = 3

3x = 3

Divide both sides of equation by 3

x = 1

Thus the value of x is 1

When the p-value is used for hypothesis testing, the null hypothesis is rejected if _____
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to give the reason why we would reject the null hypothesis during the hypothesis testing.

In considering whether to accept the null hypothesis or reject the null hypothesis, we have to take into consideration two things.

The p-value and the alpha value. The p-value refers to the probability which is directly obtainable from the standard score which is referred to as the z-score while the alpha refers to the level of significance.

Now, when the p-value is less than alpha, we simply reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis. In a case however, we have the value of p greater than or equal to the significance level alpha, we simply accept the null hypothesis in this case.

The question asks for a rejection case and this can happen only when the p-value is less than the level of significance alpha

In a 30-60-90 triangle, what is the length of the hypotenuse when the shorter leg is 7 in?
Llana [10]
14 inches.  A 30-60-90 triangle has a set ratio for the sides which is x:x√3:2x for the sides opposite the corresponding angle. (30 = x, 60 = x√3, 90 =2x) the shortest side is the side opposite the 30-degree angle so x=7. The hypotenuse is the side opposite the 90-degree angle. they hypotenuse = 2x. Substitute x. 2(7)=14
