2x + 4y = 14
4x + y = 20......multiply by -4
----------------
2x + 4y = 14
-16x - 4y = -80 (result of multiplying by -4)
---------------add
-14x = -66....as u can see, ur y's cancel out
so ur answer is : 1st answer choice <==
** and just so u know, u could have multiplied the 1st equation by -2, and it would have cancelled out ur x's
Answer:
The minimum score required for admission is 21.9.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
A university plans to admit students whose scores are in the top 40%. What is the minimum score required for admission?
Top 40%, so at least 100-40 = 60th percentile. The 60th percentile is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.6. So it is X when Z = 0.255. So
The minimum score required for admission is 21.9.
Answer:
x < -11/6.
Step-by-step explanation:
−12x + 13 > 35
-12x > 35 - 13
-12x > 22
Divide both sides by -12 and invert the inequality sign:
x < -22/12
x < -11/6.
Answer:
a). 6:51
b). 6:30 am
c). 34 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
a). Train leaves Westchester at 6:30.
From the arrival - departure table in column (2),
Arrival time of the train at middlewich = 6:51
b). Kate has to reach Southam before 9:00 am
Therefore, time of the latest train that she can catch to get to work on time is 6:30 am
By this train she can reach at 07:19 at Southam.
c). Duration of journey from Westchester to Eastwick = 06:34 - 06:00
= 00:34
≈ 34 minutes
