Multiply the first equation by -1

-3x-y=-4

2x+y=5

Add them up

-x=1

So x=-1

And y=7

So the first option is correct

Write each decimal as a fraction or mixed number in simplest form.<br> 1 3/8

Mnenie [13.5K]

3/2

<em>Step One:</em> 1 3/8, transform the number into a improper fraction:

To have a mixed number in to a improper fraction, you need to use addition and multiplication. For 1 3/8, We first multiply the denominator (8, also know to be the bottom number of the fraction) to the whole number (1). 8x1= 8
NOTE: The original denominator (8) will be use for are improper, again playing as the denominator, we only multiply the denominator for the numerator (which is the top number of a fraction).
After multiplying, we'll add are product with the numerator (3) for the process. 8+3= 12
Now we have both numerator and denominator for 1 3/8, we can create the improper fraction. 12 as the numerator and 8 as the denominator. 12/8
We still need to simplify the number. To that, we need the biggest whole number, or rather I call it the lowest number, that can be divide both in 12 and 8.
4 can be divide by both number so: 12/4= 3 and 8/4=2
Now 3 is are simplify numerator and 2 is are simplify denominator.

An average American child aged 0-2 years old has about 915 minutes of screen time in 5 days. 6 times the difference between a ch

Alborosie

Answer:

For children ages 2 to 5, limit screen time to one hour a day of high-quality programming. As your child grows, a one-size-fits-all approach doesn't work as well. You'll need to decide how much media to let your child use each day and what's appropriate.

Step-by-step explanation:

For kids aged 2 to 5, screen time should be limited to 1 hour per day, and parents should watch the programs with their child. Also, parents should have times when screens are turned off, and bedrooms should be media-free.

Why don't we measure spread about the mean by simply averaging x − x , the deviations of individual data values from their mean?

skad [1K]

Answer:

Because this spread will add up to zero

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean defines the center of the data. Some values are below this center and some values are above this center.

For the values which are below the center (i.e. less than the mean), when mean is subtracted from these values, this results in negative numbers.

For the values which are above the center(i.e. greater than the mean), when mean is subtracted from these values, this results in positive numbers.

When these negative and positive numbers are summed together, as it is, they cancel out each other, leaving an answer equal to zero, which would be meaningless. As a spread of 0 would mean all data values are the same, when infact they aren't.

To avoid this, the difference of mean from the data value is squared, so that we can get all positive values, and then these values are added up together to calculate the spread of the data.

Conclusion:

The average of deviations of individual data from the mean will result in answer equal to zero, as a result they are squared first before finding the average.
