A science test, which is worth 100 points, consists of 24 questions. Each question is worth either 3 points or 5 points. If x is

the number of 3-point questions and y is the number of 5-point questions, the system shown represents this situation.
x + y = 24
3x + 5y = 100
What does the solution of this system indicate about the questions on the test?

X + y = 24....multiply by -3
3x + 5y = 100
---------------
-3x - 3y = - 72 (result of multiplying by -3)
3x + 5y = 100
--------------add
2y = 28
y = 28/2
y = 14

x + y = 24
x + 14 = 24
x = 24 - 14
x = 10

solution is (10,14)...and x represents 3 point q's and y represents 5 point q's......so this tells me there are 10 three point q's and 14 five point q's.

What is the slope of the line graphed on the coordinate plane
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The slope = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

m=\frac{6-3}{2-(-2)}=\frac{6-3}{2+2}

m = 3/4

Find all solutions of each equation on the interval 0 ≤ x &lt; 2π.
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

x = 0 or x = \pi.

Step-by-step explanation:

How are tangents and secants related to sines and cosines?

\displaystyle \tan{x} = \frac{\sin{x}}{\cos{x}}.

\displaystyle \sec{x} = \frac{1}{\cos{x}}.

Sticking to either cosine or sine might help simplify the calculation. By the Pythagorean Theorem, \sin^{2}{x} = 1 - \cos^{2}{x}. Therefore, for the square of tangents,

\displaystyle \tan^{2}{x} = \frac{\sin^{2}{x}}{\cos^{2}{x}} = \frac{1 - \cos^{2}{x}}{\cos^{2}{x}}.

This equation will thus become:

\displaystyle \frac{1 - \cos^{2}{x}}{\cos^{2}{x}} \cdot \frac{1}{\cos^{2}{x}} + \frac{2}{\cos^{2}{x}} - \frac{1 - \cos^{2}{x}}{\cos^{2}{x}} = 2.

To simplify the calculations, replace all \cos^{2}{x} with another variable. For example, let u = \cos^{2}{x}. Keep in mind that 0 \le \cos^{2}{x} \le 1 \implies 0 \le u \le 1.

\displaystyle \frac{1 - u}{u^{2}} + \frac{2}{u} - \frac{1 - u}{u} = 2.

\displaystyle \frac{(1 - u) + u - u \cdot (1- u)}{u^{2}} = 2.

Solve this equation for u:

\displaystyle \frac{u^{2} + 1}{u^{2}} = 2.

u^{2} + 1 = 2 u^{2}.

u^{2} = 1.

Given that 0 \le u \le 1, u = 1 is the only possible solution.

\cos^{2}{x} = 1,

x = k \pi, where k\in \mathbb{Z} (i.e., k is an integer.)

Given that 0 \le x < 2\pi,

0 \le k.

k = 0 or k = 1. Accordingly,

x = 0 or x = \pi.

g 78% of all Millennials drink Starbucks coffee at least once a week. Suppose a random sample of 50 Millennials will be selected
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

We know that n = 50 and p =0.78.

We need to check the conditions in order to use the normal approximation.

np=50*0.78=39  \geq 10

n(1-p)=50*(1-0.78)=11 \geq 10

Since both conditions are satisfied we can use the normal approximation and the distribution for the proportion is given by:

p \sim N (p, \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

With the following parameters:

\mu_ p = 0.78

\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{0.78*(1-0.78)}{50}}= 0.0586

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

We know that n = 50 and p =0.78.

We need to check the conditions in order to use the normal approximation.

np=50*0.78=39  \geq 10

n(1-p)=50*(1-0.78)=11 \geq 10

Since both conditions are satisfied we can use the normal approximation and the distribution for the proportion is given by:

p \sim N (p, \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})

With the following parameters:

\mu_ p = 0.78

\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{0.78*(1-0.78)}{50}}= 0.0586
