Answer:

x=1,y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+3y=21....(1)

-12x+y=-7.....(2)

From (2) make y the subject of formula

y=-7+12x...(3)

Substitute (3) into (1)

6x+3(-7+12x)=21

6x-21+36x=21

Collect like terms

6x+36x=21+21

42x=42

Divide both sides by 42

x=1

Substitute the value of x into (3)

y=-7+12(1)

y=-7+12

y=5

Therefore x=1,y=5

Answer:

(x,y)=(1,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+3y=21/*2

-12x+y=-7

12x+6y=42 (1)

-12x+y=-7 (2)

(1)+(2): 7y=35

-12x+y=-7

y=35/7

-12x+y=-7

y=5

-12x+5=-7

y=5

-12x=-7-5

y=5

-12x=-12

y=5

x=-12/(-12

y=5

x=1

(x,y)=(1,5)

Answer:

The minimum sample size required to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean is 65.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population standard deviation,

$\sigma = 3.10\text{ milligrams}$

We need to construct a 95% confidence interval such that the estimate is within 0.75 milligrams of the population mean.

Thus, the margin of error must me 0.75

Formula for margin of error:

$z_{critical}\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96$

Putting values, we get,

$0.75 = 1.86\times \dfrac{3.10}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\\sqrt{n} = \dfrac{1.96\times 3.10}{0.75}\\\\\sqrt{n} = 8.101\\\Rightarrow n = 65.63\approx 65$

Thus, the minimum sample size required to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean is 65.

Classify the following is rational or irrational(a) √45

marshall27 [118]

The numbers that can be expressed in the form of a fraction are called rational numbers. While that numbers that cannot be expressed in the form of a fraction are called irrational numbers.

$\sqrt{45} =\sqrt{3 \times 3 \times 5}$

$\sqrt{45} =3\sqrt{5}$

$3\sqrt{5}$ is an irrational number, it cannot be expressed in the form of a fraction.
