Answer:

Multiply the first equation by 3

Multiply the second equation by -7

Step-by-step explanation:

After doing the above method, you will derive equation 3 and 4 then you can eliminate the x and get y .

FURTHER EXPLANATION

-7x + 2y = 5 -------(1)\\3x - 5y = -5-------(2)\\\\-7x + 2y = 5 -------(1) \times 3\\3x - 5y = -5-------(2)\times-7\\\\-21x +6y=15 -----(3)\\-21x +35y=35----(4)\\Subtract -eq- 4- from -eq- 3 \\-29y =-20\\Divide-both-sides-by;-29\\\frac{-29y}{-29} =\frac{-20}{-29} \\y = 20/29\\

Substitute ; 20/29 for  y- in- eq 1\\-7x + 2y = 5----(1)\\-7x +2(20/29) = 5\\-7x +40/29=5\\-7x = 5 - 40/29\\-7x = 105/29\\Divide through by -7\\x = -15/29

I Hope It helps

Answer:

Multiply the first equation by 3

Multiply the second equation by -7

Step-by-step explanation:

( - 7x + 2y = 5) \times 3 \\ (3x - 5y =  - 5) \times 7

- 21x + 6y = 15 ..(3)\\  - 21x - 35y =  - 35...(4)

Subtract equation 3 from equation 4

- 21x - ( - 21x) =  - 21x + 21x = 0

x has been eliminated

When two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, the same-side exterior angles are supplementary. That means that their sum is 180.

Using that logic, if the two roads were parallel, then the sum of their same-side exterior angles will add up to 180. Yet their same-side exterior angles add up to 170 (130 + 40 = 170), hence they can't be parallel.

See the drawing attached below.

Using supplmenatry angles (two angles whose sum of measures add up to 180 or a straight line), we can say that:

m<DIE + m<HID = 18

40 + m<HID = 180

m<HID = 140

Similarly:

m<BHC + m<CHI = 180

130 + m<CHI = 180

m<CHI = 50

Using verticle angles therome, (when two lines intersect, the angles opposite to eachother are congruent, or have the same measure), we can say that:

m<DIE = m<GIH = 40

m<GIE = m<HID = 140

m<CHI = m<AHB = 50

m<BHC = m<AHI = 130

IQs as measured by the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale are approximately Normal with mean 100 and standard deviation 15. About
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

1 standard deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

IQs as measured by the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale are approximately Normal with:

Mean = 100

Standard deviation = 15

About 84% of people will have IQs below 115 because:

84% = 0.84

From z - table, 0.84 corresponds to a z- score of about 0.995

0.995 = 1. 00

The z-score gives the number of standard deviations by which a raw score is above or below the average or mean value.

Raw score = 115

Mean = 100

Standard deviation (sd) = 15

Mean + number of sd's

100 + 1(sd)

100 + 1(15) = 100 + 15 = 115
