Answer:

  It has a single solution x=-3 y=26

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratios of coefficients of x and y are different, so the pair of equations has one solution. It is easy to tell the first offered solution (15, 17) does not satisfy the first equation, so that choice is eliminated.

Fortunately, the second offered solution, (x, y) = (-3, 26), satisfies both equations.

The equations have a single solution: (x, y) = (-3, 26).

Answer: The equation has a single solution x = -3 , y = 26.

( -3, 26 )

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + y =17 ---------------------(1)

x + 2y = 49 -------------------(2)

Using substitution approach

From (2)

x = 49 - 2y --------------------(3)

Now put (3) in equation (1) and solve.

3(49 - 2y) + y = 17

Open the bracket and solve

3 x 48 - 3 x 2y + y = 17

147 - 6y + y = 17

Gather like terms

-5y = 17 - 147

-5y = -130

Multiple through by (-1)

5y = 130

Divide by 5

y = 130/5

y = 26.

Substitute for y now in equation (3) to get the value of x

3x + y = 17

3x + 26 = 17

3x = 17 - 26

3x = -9

Now , divide by 3

x = -3

The equation had a single solution of x = -3 , y = 26

Chech.

3 x -3 + 26

-9 + 26

= 17

HELPPP?!!! What is the value of f(-2) and f(3)
Cerrena [4.2K]
Step #1 for both: figure out which interval your x-value fits into.
For f(-2), x=-2 and -2 fits with x ≤ -2, the top interval.
For f(3), x=3 and 3 fits into -2 < x ≤ 3, the middle interval.

Step #2 for both, plug in your x-value to the piece of the function that fits with that interval.
For f(-2), we know x≤-2, so we use 2x+8 to evaluate x=-2.
For f(3), we know -2
f(-2) = 2(-2)+8 = -4+8 = 4

f(3) = (3)^2 -3 = 9-3 = 6

Based on a​ survey, assume that 32​% of consumers are comfortable having drones deliver their purchases. Suppose that we want to
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

n = 6

x = 3

p = 0.32

q = 0.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

32% are comfortable having drones deliver their purchases.

Suppose we are to find the probability that when 6 consumers are randomly​ selected, exactly 3 of them are comfortable with delivery by drones.

Required:

Find n, x, p, and q.

i) n represents the sample size. Here 6 consumers are selected randomly, therefore the sample size here is 6.

Thus, n = 6

ii) x represents the sample mean or number of successes. Since 3 consumers out of the selected 6 are comfortable with delivery by drones, the sample mean here is 3.

Thus, x = 3

iii) p represents population proportion or probability of success. Here population proportion(success probability) is 32% ≈ 0.32.

Thus, p = 0.32

iv) q represents probability of failure. To find probability of failure, use the formula:

1 - p

Thus,

1 - 0.32 = 0.68

q = 0.68
