What ordered pair is a solution to y = x + 5 and x - 5y = -9?<br> I also need to show the work.

Margarita [4]

Answer:

(- 4, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

y = x + 5 → (1)

x - 5y = - 9 → (2)

Substitute y = x + 5 into (2)

x - 5(x + 5) = - 9 ← distribute and simplify left side

x - 5x - 25 = - 9

- 4x - 25 = - 9 ( add 25 to both sides )

- 4x = 16 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

x = - 4

Substitute x = - 4 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (1)

y = - 4 + 5 = 1

Solution is (- 4, 1 )

The average annual salary of the employees of a company in the year 2005 was $70,000. It increased by the same factor each year

dezoksy [38]

We can make use of the general formula for the geometric series to generate the function representing the average annual salary.
an = a0(r)^(n-1)

Or
f(x) = a0(r)^(x - 1)

Plugging in the given values for the year 2005 and 2006 to ge the value of r.
82000 = 70000 (r)^(1-1)
r = 1.1714

Therefore, the function is:
f(x) = 70,000 (1.1714)^(x-1)

Among freshman at a certain university, scores on the Math SAT followed the normal curve, with an average of 550 and an SD of 10

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

a) 6.68th percentile

b) 617.5 points

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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:

$\mu = 550, \sigma = 100$

a) A student who scored 400 on the Math SAT was at the ______ th percentile of the score distribution.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{400 - 550}{100}$

$Z = -1.5$

$Z = -1.5$ has a pvalue of 0.0668

So this student is in the 6.68th percentile.

b) To be at the 75th percentile of the distribution, a student needed a score of about ______ points on the Math SAT.

He needs a score of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.75. So X when Z = 0.675.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$0.675 = \frac{X - 550}{100}$

$X - 550 = 0.675*100$

$X = 617.5$

The preimeter of the rectangle is 154 feet.The length of the rectangle is 55 feet.What is the width of the rectangle.

Alja [10]

Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

The preimeter is adding all sides together. I took 154-55 twice sense we have four sides of a rectangle and two are lengths. after that i got 44. I then just remembered we had two sides left so divided that by 2 and got 22
