For the function f(x) = -12x + 7, find the

Mathematics
1 answer:
Brut [27]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=-\frac{5}{6}}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) is the same value as y. Therefore, y = 17. We can place this into slope intercept form (except with a defined value for y) and solve for x.

Start by subtracting 7 from both sides. Then, divide by -12 to solve for x. Finally, simplify the fraction.

17 = -12x + 7

10 = -12x

-10/12 = x

-5/6 = x

\large\boxed{x=-\frac{5}{6}}

Grades on a standardized test are known to have a mean of 1000 for students in the United States. The test is administered to 45
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

a. The 95% confidence interval is 1,022.94559 < μ < 1,003.0544

b. There is significant evidence that Florida students perform differently (higher mean) differently than other students in the United States

c. i. The 95% confidence interval for the change in average test score is; -18.955390 < μ₁ - μ₂ < 6.955390

ii. There are no statistical significant evidence that the prep course helped

d. i. The 95% confidence interval for the change in average test scores is  3.47467 < μ₁ - μ₂ < 14.52533

ii. There is statistically significant evidence that students will perform better on their second attempt after the prep course

iii. An experiment that would quantify the two effects is comparing the result of the confidence interval C.I. of the difference of the means when the student had a prep course and when the students had test taking experience

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of the standardized test = 1,000

The number of students test to which the test is administered = 453 students

The mean score of the sample of students, \bar{x} = 1013

The standard deviation of the sample, s = 108

a. The 95% confidence interval is given as follows;

CI=\bar{x}\pm z\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

At 95% confidence level, z = 1.96, therefore, we have;

CI=1013\pm 1.96 \times \dfrac{108}{\sqrt{453}}

Therefore, we have;

1,022.94559 < μ < 1,003.0544

b. From the 95% confidence interval of the mean, there is significant evidence that Florida students perform differently (higher mean) differently than other students in the United States

c. The parameters of the students taking the test are;

The number of students, n = 503

The number of hours preparation the students are given, t = 3 hours

The average test score of the student, \bar{x} = 1019

The number of test scores of the student, s = 95

At 95% confidence level, z = 1.96, therefore, we have;

The confidence interval, C.I., for the difference in mean is given as follows;

C.I. = \left (\bar{x}_{1}- \bar{x}_{2}  \right )\pm z_{\alpha /2}\sqrt{\dfrac{s_{1}^{2}}{n_{1}}+\dfrac{s_{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}

Therefore, we have;

C.I. = \left (1013- 1019  \right )\pm 1.96 \times \sqrt{\dfrac{108^{2}}{453}+\dfrac{95^{2}}{503}}

Which gives;

-18.955390 < μ₁ - μ₂ < 6.955390

ii. Given that one of the limit is negative while the other is positive, there are no statistical significant evidence that the prep course helped

d. The given parameters are;

The number of students taking the test = The original 453 students

The average change in the test scores, \bar{x}_{1}- \bar{x}_{2} = 9 points

The standard deviation of the change, Δs = 60 points

Therefore, we have;

C.I. = \bar{x}_{1}- \bar{x}_{2} + 1.96 × Δs/√n

∴ C.I. = 9 ± 1.96 × 60/√(453)

i. The 95% confidence interval, C.I. = 3.47467 < μ₁ - μ₂ < 14.52533

ii. Given that both values, the minimum and the maximum limit are positive, therefore, there is no zero (0) within the confidence interval of the difference in of the means of the results therefore, there is statistically significant evidence that students will perform better on their second attempt after the prep course

iii. An experiment that would quantify the two effects is comparing the result of the confidence interval C.I. of the difference of the means when the student had a prep course and when the students had test taking experience

Elimination_4x_2y=14<br> _10x+7y=_24
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The answer is x=-\frac{50}{8}  and y=\frac{11}{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

-4x-2y=14

-10x+7y=-24

Now, to solve it by elimination:

-4x-2y=14   ......(1)

-10x+7y=-24 ......(2)

So, we multiply the equation (1) by 7 we get:

-28x-14y=98

And, we multiply the equation (2) by 2 we get:

-20x+14y=-48

Now, adding both the new equations:

-28x-14y+(-20x+14y)=98+(-48)

-28x-14y-20x+14y=98-48

-28x-20x-14y+14y=50

-8x=50

<em>Dividing both the sides by -8 we get:</em>

x=-\frac{50}{8}

Now, putting the value of x in equation (1):

-4x-2y=14

-4(-\frac{50}{8})-2y=14

\frac{200}{8} -2y=14

25-2y=14

<em>Subtracting both sides by 25 we get:</em>

-2y=-11

<em>Dividing both sides by -2 we get:</em>

y=\frac{11}{2}

Therefore, the answer is x=-\frac{50}{8}  and y=\frac{11}{2}.
