Answer: y = -3

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

-8x - 5y = -1

<u>+8x        </u>  <u>+8x </u>

       -5y = 8x  - 1

       <u> ÷-5 </u> <u> ÷-5</u>  <u>÷-5</u>

           y = -\frac{8}{5}x + \frac{1}{5}

       y(2) = -\frac{8}{5}(2) + \frac{1}{5}

               = -\frac{16}{5} + \frac{1}{5}

               = -\frac{15}{5}

                = -3

Add 2 to both sdies
now if we can facor, then if
xy=0 then x and/or y=0
note:xy=x times y and x(y) =x times y

x^2+3x+2=0
what 2 number multiply to get 2 and add to get 3
the numbers are 2 and 1
(x+2)(x+1)=0
set them to zero
x+2=0
subtract 2
x=-2


x+1=0
subtract 1
x=-1



x could be -1 or -2
x=-2, or -1

36 out of 100 randomly selected taxpayers knew about tax incentives for installing energy-saving furnaces. Find a 90% confidence
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the population proportion who knew about the incentives is (0.28, 0.44).

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 level of 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:

n = 100, \pi = \frac{36}{60} = 0.6

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.36 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.36*0.64}{100}} = 0.28

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.36 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.36*0.64}{100}} = 0.44

The 90% confidence interval for the population proportion who knew about the incentives is (0.28, 0.44).

choli [55]

Answer:

$29.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The price that Rob paid includes a 15% discount.  This means that Rob paid 85% of the original price.

100% - 15% = 85%

Divide the price Rob paid by the percentage the price is of the total.

85% = 0.85

50.15/0.85 = 59

Now, divide the total price by 2 so that you can find the price of one pair of jeans.

59/2 = 29.50

The price of one pair of jeans is $29.50
