Paladinen [302]3 years ago

Answer:

x = - 5, y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x + 2y = - 9 → (1)

4x - 2y = - 26 → (2)

Adding (1) and (2) term by term eliminates the y- term, that is

7x = - 35 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = - 5

Substitute x = - 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting into (1)

3(- 5) + 2y = - 9

- 15 + 2y = - 9 ( add 15 to both sides )

2y = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 3

Akron Cinema sells an average of 500 tickets on Mondays, with a standard deviation of 50 tickets. If a simple random sample is t
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the number of tickets sales from Mondays is normally distributed. the formula for normal distribution would be applied. It is expressed as

z = (x - u)/s

Where

x = ticket sales from monday

u = mean amount of ticket

s = standard deviation

From the information given,

u = 500 tickets

s = 50 tickets

We want to find the probability that the mean will be greater than 510. It is expressed as

P(x greater than 510) = 1 - P(x lesser than or equal to 510)

For x = 510

z = (510 - 500)/50 = 0.2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.9773

P(x greater than 510) = 1 - 0.9773 = 0.0227

Solve for x. 12x+252=324
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

12x+252=324

Subtract 252 from each side

12x+252-252=324-252

12x =72

Divide each side by 12

12x/12 = 72/12

x =6

Identify the property shown. −1.4+(−2.6+3.8)=(−1.4+(−2.6))+3.8
Dimas [21]
<span>This property is called associativity. It shows that it doesn't matter whether you perform the sum on the first two numbers and then the third, or on the second two and then the first, because you will get the same answer either way. That is because addition is associative.</span>
