Answer: x=3, y=6, z=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2z=4

2x=4-2z

X=2-z

-(2-z)-y-z=-8

-2+z-y-z=-8

-2-y=-8

-2+y=-8+y

-2+8=y

6=y

-4 (2-z)+4 (6)+5z=7

-8+4z+24+5z=7

9z=8-24+7

9z=-9

Z=-1

2x+2z=4

2x+2 (-1)=4

2x-2=4+2

2x=6

X=3

x=3 y=6 z=-1

- x - y - z = - 8 ------- (1)
- 4x + 4y + 5z = 7 -------- (2)
2x + 2z = 4 --------- (3)

From (3): x + z = 2
                      x = 2 - z --------- (4)

Substitute (4) into (1),
- x - y - z = - 8
- (2-z) - y - z = - 8
- 2 + z - y - z = -8
- 2 - y = - 8
2 + y = 8
Therefore, y = 6

Substitute y = 6 and (4) into (2),
- 4x + 4y + 5z = 7
- 4(2 - z) + 4(6) + 5z = 7
- 8 + 4z + 24 + 5z = 7
9z + 16 = 7
9z = - 9
Therefore, z = - 9

Substitute z = - 9 into (4),
x = 2 - z
x = 2 - (-9)
x = 2 + 9
Therefore x = 11

Solution:
x = 11
y = 6
z = -9

A clinical trial tests a method designed to increase the probability of conceiving a girl. In the study 340 babies were​ born, a
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born is (0.8, 0.9).

b)Yes, the proportion of girls is significantly different from 0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence interval 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

Z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

For this problem, we have that:

In the study 340 babies were​ born, and 289 of them were girls. This means that n = 340, \pi = \frac{289}{340} = 0.85

Use the sample data to construct a 99​% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born.

So \alpha = 0.01, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995, so z = 2.575.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{340}} = 0.85 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.85*0.15}{400}} = 0.80

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{340}} = 0.85 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.85*0.15}{400}} = 0.90

The 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born is (0.8, 0.9).

Does the method appear to be ​effective?

b)Yes, the proportion of girls is significantly different from 0.5.

I need some Help please

Answer:

a) f(2) = 4

b) g(3) = 3

c) g(1/3) = -1

d) f(3) = 1/2

e) g(-2) = 2

f) f(π) = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

f={(2,4),(-4,3),(3,1/2),(π,3)} and g={(3,3),(-2,2),(1/3,-1)}

We need to find the following values of f and g

a) f(2)

f(2) means when x=2, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given f={(2,4),(-4,3),(3,1/2),(π,3)} , when x =2 then y=4

So, f(2) = 4

b) g(3)

g(3) means when x=3, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given g={(3,3),(-2,2),(1/3,-1)}, when x =3 then y=3

So, g(3) = 3

c) g(1/3)

g(1/3) means when x=1/3, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given g={(3,3),(-2,2),(1/3,-1)}, when x =1/3 then y=-1

So, g(3) = -1

d) f(3)

f(3) means when x=3, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given f={(2,4),(-4,3),(3,1/2),(π,3)} , when x =3 then y=1/2

So, f(3) = 1/2

e) g(-2)

g(-2) means when x=-2, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given g={(3,3),(-2,2),(1/3,-1)}, when x =-2 then y=2

So, g(-2) = 2

f) f(π)

f(π) means when x=π, we need to find the value of y.

Looking at the given f={(2,4),(-4,3),(3,1/2),(π,3)} , when x =π then y=3

So, f(π) = 3

djverab [1.8K]
Answer: y = (x - 6)^2

work:

y = x^2 - 12x + 36

y = (x - 6) (x - 6)

y = (x - 6)^2
