Answer:

x = 0

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x + 1 -------eqn 1

y = x + 1 -------eqn 2

Looking for x, let's use eqn 1

y = 4x + 1

4x = y - 1

Divide both sides by 4, to get x

4x/4 = (y - 1) / 4

x = (y - 1) / 4

Substitute the value of x into eqn 2

y = x + 1

y = (y - 1) / 4 + 1

LCM = 4

y =( y - 1 + 4)/4

y =( y + 3) / 4

Cross multiply

y * 4 = y + 3

4y = y + 3

4y - y = 3

3y = 3

Divide both sides by 3, to get y

3y / 3 = 3/3

y = 1

Substitute y = 1 , into eqn 1

y = 4x + 1

1 = 4x + 1

1 -1 = 4x

0 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4, to get x

0/4 = 4x/4

0 = x

x = 0

Hint, let's check if the values are correct

Let's pick eqn 2

y = x + 1

y = 1

x = 0

1 = 0 + 1

1 = 1

Correct

Let's try the eqn 1

y = 4x + 1

1 = 4(0) + 1

1 = 0 + 1

1 = 1

Correct too

A home pregnancy test is not always accurate. suppose the probability that the test indicates that a woman is pregnant when she
Gnom [1K]
Set Events:
T=tests positive~T=tests negativeP=subject is pregnant~P=subject is not pregnant
We are givenP(T n ~P)=0.02P(~T n P)=0.03P(P)=0.7
recall by definition of conditional probabilityP(A|B)=P(A n B)/P(B)

Need to find P(P|~T)
First step: make a contingency diagram of probabilities (intersection, n)
          P       ~P       sum 
T       0.67   0.02     0.69=P(T) 
~T     0.03   0.28     0.31=P(~T) 
sum   0.70  0.30     1.00
      =P(P)  =P(~P)

therefore
P(P|~T)=P(P n ~T)/P(~T)=0.03/0.31   [ both read off the contingency table ]
=0.0968

If x/2 + 3y=6, then solve for x in terms of y and y in terms of x
Elden [556K]
X/2 +3y = 6 . . . . . . . . starting point
x/2 = 6 -3y . . . . . . . . subtract terms that don't have x
x = 2(6 -3y) . . . . . . . . multiply by the inverse of the x-coefficient
x = 12 -6y . . . . . . . . . expand if you like

3y = 6 -x/2 . . . . . . . . subtract terms that don't have y
y = (6 -x/2)/3 . . . . . . . multiply by the inverse of the y-coefficient
y = 2 -x/6 . . . . . . . . . expand if you like

Writing Explain how you can use an equation to make predictions about a particular relationship​
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

the intercept of the line with the y-axis. Substitute the line's slope and intercept as "m" and "c" in the equation "y = mx + c." With this example, this produces the equation "y = 0.667x + 10.33." This equation predicts the y-value of any point on the plot from its x-value.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for Y. 9/4y-12=1/4y-4
Lelechka [254]
I believe y equals 4.

9/4y - 12. = 1/4y - 4
+ 12. +12
9/4y. = 1/4y + 8
- 1/4y. - 1/4y

8/4y. = 8
2y. = 8
