Answer:

Number of​ restaurant-purchased meals eaten in a​ restaurant = 70

Number of​ restaurant-purchased meals eaten in a​ car = 22

Number of​ restaurant-purchased meals eaten in a​ home = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of people that will eat in a restaurant be R.

Let the number of people that will eat in a car be C.

Let the number of people that will eat in a home be H.

From the information given in the problem we have,

R+C+H = 152 ____equation (1)

C+H-R = 12 ____equation (2)

R = H+10 ____equation (3)

1) Plugging in R=H+10 from equation 3 into the equation 2, we get

C+H-R=12

=> C+H-(H+10)=12

=> C+H-H-10=12

2) Cancelling out +H and -H, we get

C-10=12

3) Add 10 to both sides

C-10+10=12+10

4) Cancelling out -10 and +10, we get

C=22

5) Plugin C=22 in equation 1, we have

R+C+H = 152

=> R+22+H=152

Subtract 22 from both sides,

R+22+H-22=152-22

Cancelling out +22 and -22 from the left side, we get

R+H=130 ____let it be equation (4)

6) Plugin C=22 in equation 2, we have

C+H-R = 12

22+H-R = 12

Subtracting 22 from both the sides, we get

22+H-R-22 = 12-22

Cancelling out +22 and -22 from the left side,

H-R = -10 ____let it be equation (5)

7) Adding equation 4 and equation 5, we get

(R+H)+(H-R) = 130 + (-10)

=> R+H+H-R = 130-10

8) Cancelling out R and -R from the left side, we get

2H = 120

9) Dividing both sides by 2, we get

\frac{2H}{2} = \frac{120}{2}

10) Cancelling out the 2's from the left side, we have

H=60

11) Plugging in C=22 and H=60 in the equation 1, we have

R+C+H = 152

=> R+22+60=152

=> R + 82 = 152

12) Subtracting 82 from both the sides, we get

R + 82 -82 = 152 -82

13) Cancelling out +82 and -82 from the left side, we get

R = 70

<em>So, C=22, H=60, R=70</em>

Solve the system of equations:<br> y=2x<br> y=x²-8
igomit [66]
Set equal to each other
x^2 - 8 = 2x
x^2 - 2x - 8 = 0

Factor
(x - 4)(x + 2) = 0
x = 4 or x = -2

Plug in 4
y = 2x or y = x^2 - 8
y = 2(4) or y = 4^2 - 8
y = 8

Plug in -2
y = 2x or y = x^2 - 8
y = 2(-2) or y = (-2)^2 - 8
y = -4

There are two solutions
(4, 8) and (-2, -4)

True or False: The null hypothesis should be rejected at a 10% level of significance when testing whether age has any effect on
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is rejected or accepted on the basis of level of significance. When the p-value is greater than level of significance we fail to reject the null hypothesis and null hypothesis is then accepted. It is not necessary that all null hypothesis will be rejected at 10% level of significance. To determine the criteria for accepting or rejecting a null hypothesis we should also consider p-value.

|-19+9|/3-|14-22|/9<br> give me an answer
MArishka [77]

Answer:22/

9

= 2 4/

9

≅ 2.4444444

Step-by-step explanation:

Add: -19 + 9 = -10

Absolute value: abs(the result of step No. 1) = abs(-10) = 10

Divide: the result of step No. 2 / 3 = 10 / 3 = 3.3333333333333 = 10/

3

Subtract: 14 - 22 = -8

Absolute value: abs(the result of step No. 4) = abs(-8) = 8

Divide: the result of step No. 5 / 9 = 8 / 9 = 0.88888888888889 = 8/

9

Subtract: the result of step No. 3 - the result of step No. 6 = 10/

3

- 8/

9

= 10 · 3/

3 · 3

- 8/

9

= 30/

9

- 8/

9

= 30 - 8/

9

= 22/
