Answer:

x=16/13

y= -9/13

Step-by-step explanation:

A: -4y=-x+4

B: y+3x=3

4B: 4y+12x=12

A+4B: 12x= -x+16

-----> 13x=16

x=16/13

-4y= -16/13+4

4y=16/13-4

y=4/13-1= -9/13

Find the MEDIAN of the data set. (Hint: the numbers must be in order first!) 40 76 40 63 47 57 49 55 50 53

Romashka [77]

Given:

The data set is:

40, 76, 40, 63, 47, 57, 49, 55, 50, 53

To find:

The median of the given data set.

Solution:

We have,

40, 76, 40, 63, 47, 57, 49, 55, 50, 53

Arrange the data values in ascending order.

40, 40, 47, 49, 50, 53, 55, 57, 63, 76

Here, the number of observations is 10 which is an even number. So, the median is:

$Median=\dfrac{(\dfrac{n}{2})\text{th term}+(\dfrac{n}{2}+1)\text{th term}}{2}$

Putting n=10, we get

$Median=\dfrac{(\dfrac{10}{2})\text{th term}+(\dfrac{10}{2}+1)\text{th term}}{2}$

$Median=\dfrac{5\text{th term}+6\text{th term}}{2}$

From the arranged terms, it is clear that the the 5th term is 50 and the 6th term is 53.

$Median=\dfrac{50+53}{2}$

$Median=\dfrac{103}{2}$

$Median=51.5$

Therefore, the median of the given data set is 51.5.

Find the solution of the square root of the quantity of x plus 2 plus 4 equals 8, and determine if it is an extraneous solution

Iteru [2.4K]

Consider the equation:

$\sqrt{x+2}+4 = 8$

Subtracting '4' from both the sides of the equation, we get as

$\sqrt{x+2}+4-4= 8-4$

$\sqrt{x+2}= 4$

Squaring on both the sides of the equation, we get

$(\sqrt{x+2})^2 = (4)^2$

$x+2 = 16$

Subtracting '2' from both the sides of the equation, we get

$x+2-2=16-2$

x=14

Since, An extraneous solution is a solution that arises from the solving process that is not really a solution at all. But, in this equation x=14 is the solution of the given equation.

Hence, it is not an extraneous solution.

At the supermarket Pryslide, 500ml bottles of shower gel cost $7 each. However, since the beginning of last week there has been

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

I strongly believe that the question requires us to calculate the cost of one 500ml bottle of shower gel based on this special offer of buy 2 bottles get another for just $2.

The correct answer is $5.33

Step-by-step explanation:

From a buyer's point of view,a 500ml bottle of shower gel cost is the $7 multiplied by 2 bottles plus $2 multiplied by 1 bottle all divided by 3 bottles.

The rationale for the denominator is that the total number of bottles bought would then equal 3 bottles .

Cost per bottle =($7*2)+($2*1)/3=$16/3=$5.33

Instead of a bottle costing $7,under the special arrangement a bottle would simply cost $5.33
