Answer:

These problems are an example of equations with two unknowns. The way these equations are solved is that we write these equations one under the another.

If both equations have, such is the case here, same parts, we can simply cancel the same parts out and subtract the rest of equatuons. That way, we are left with only one unknown (the other one was eliminated), which makes it easy to solve.

After we have found the value of an unknown, we just plug it back into any of the starting equations and solve for the second unknown.

2. Adult ticket costs $12 and child ticket costs $14.

3. Adult ticket costs $10 and child ticket costs $5.

4. One daylily costs $9 and one bush of ornamental grass costs $2.

5. A van can carry 15 and a bus can carry 56 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

2. If we mark the price of one adult ticket with x and the price of one child ticket with y, we get that:

- first day: 7x + 12y = $252

- second day: 7x + 10y = $224

Now, we can make a system:

7x + 12y = 252

7x + 10y = 224

We can now subtract these two equations and 7x will cancel out, so we get:

12y - 10y = 252 - 224

2y = 28

y = 14

Now, we can plug the value of y into any of the two equations:

7x + 10y = 224

7x + 140 = 224

7x = 84

x = 12

3. Similarly, if we mark the price of one adult ticket with x and the price of one child tickey with y, we'll get a system:

x + 12y = 70

x + 9y = 55

Again, if we subtract these two, x will cancel out, so we have:

12y - 9y = 70 - 55

3y = 15

y = 5

Now, we plug the value of y into any of the two equations, and we get:

x + 9y = 55

x + 45 = 55

x = 10

4. Using the same principle, we can mark the price of one daylily with x and the price of one bunch of ornamental grass with y, we'll get a system:

12x + 11y = 130

12x + 12y = 132

Again, we subtract so that 12x cancel out and we get:

11y - 12y = 130 - 132

-y = -2

If we get minuses on both sides, we can simply multiply both sides with -1 and we get:

y = 2

Again, we plug y:

12x + 12y = 132

12x + 24 = 132

12x = 108

x = 9

5. If we mark number of students in a van with x and the number of students in a bus with y, we get a system:

2x + 12y = 702

2x + y = 86

As you've probably already noticed the pattern, we subtract equations and cancel 2x out to get:

12y - y = 702 - 86

11y = 616

y = 56

Once again, we plug the value of y into any equation:

2x + y = 86

2x + 56 = 86

2x = 30

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, parent function,

Transformed function,

Since, if a function f(x) gives cf(x), where c is any number,

Then the function was vertically stretched by factor c,

While, the function gives f(x-c),

Then the function was shifted c unit right.

Hence, the graph of  was shifted 5 unit right side then stretched vertically by the factor 100 to create the graph of

Which choice does NOT describe a parallelogram?
weeeeeb [17]

Answer: B. A quadrilateral that has diagonals that do not bisect each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose opposite sides are equal or congruent and parallel. Also, the opposite sides in parallelogram are equal or congruent and the sum of  two adjacent angles is 180 degrees.The diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other.

Therefore by the properties of parallelogram the choice that does NOT describe a parallelogram is " <em>A quadrilateral that has diagonals that do not bisect each other</em>.".

A researcher is 95% confident that the interval from 5.2 hours to 7.8 hours captures u = the true mean amount of time
igor_vitrenko [27]
<h3>Answer: Choice B</h3>

No, this is not a plausible value for the population mean, because 5 is not within the 95% confidence interval.

====================================================

Explanation:

The greek letter mu is the population mean. It has the symbol \mu which looks like the letter 'u' but with a tail at the front or left side.

The question is asking if mu = 5 is plausible if the researcher found the 95% confidence interval to be 5.2 < mu < 7.8

We see that 5 is <u>not</u> in that interval. It's a bit to the left of 5.2

Since mu = 5 is not in the interval, it's not a plausible value for the population mean.

Have we ruled it out with 100% confidence? No. Such a thing is not possible. There's always room for (slight) error. The researcher would need to do a census to be fully confident; however, such practices are very time consuming and expensive. This is the main reason why statistics is important to try to estimate the population with a sample.
