What is the value of y in the solution to the following system of equations ?

1 answer:

4 0

We can use substitution method to solve for this system of equations. We calculate as follows:

<span>2x – 6y = –14
-6y = -14 -2x
y = x/3 + 7/3

</span>5x – 3y = –11
5x – 3(x/3 + 7/3) = –11
5x - x + 7 = -11
4x = -11 -7
4x = -18
x = -9/2
y = -9/2(3) + 7/3
y = 5/6

Suppose that, when taking a random sample of three students' GPAs, you get a sample mean of 3.90. This sample mean is far high

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Your sample most likely is biased, but simply getting a high number does not 100 percent mean your answer was biased. It could be a pure coincidence that you picked students with high GPAs. However, it is likely that your answer is biased. You may have sampled kids that are in advanced classes. You may have sampled students that were in some sort of honors club. You may have sampled students that were all hanging out in the library, a place that most people come to study and prepare for classes. So again, while your higher than normal answer could have been a coincidence, you most likely had a biased sample.

10. Petrolyn motor oil is a combination of natural oil and synthetic oil. It contains 3 liters of natural oil for every 4

jeyben [28]

you have the ratio of natural:synthetic so;

3:4

3+4=7

357/7=51

3*51:4°51

153:204

therefore, it'd be 204 litres of synthetic oil!!

i hope this helps you!!
