2x -  5y = -20 ⇒   4x -  10y = -40
3x + 2y =  20 ⇒ 15x + 10y = 100
                                    19x = 60
                                     19     19
                                        x = 3³/₁₉
                               2x - 5y = -20
                        2(3³/₁₉) - 5y = -20
                            6⁶/₁₉ - 5y = -20
                          - 6⁶/₁₉           - 6⁶/₁₉
                                    -5y = -26⁶/₁₉
                                     -5       -5
                                       y = 5⁵/₁₉
                                 (x, y) = (3³/₁₉, 5⁵/₁₉)
The best approximation of the solution to the system of the nearest integer values are (4, 6), or (x, y) ≈ (4, 6).

prisoha [69]

Answer:

Less than $12

Step-by-step explanation:

I changed everything into decimals to make it easier to solve:

1 2/5= 1.4

2 3/10= 2.3

1.4+2.3=3.7

2.99·3.7=11.063 (Round it to the nearest hundredth and you get 11.06)

Solve: 25x2 − 30 = 0 round the answer to the nearest hundredth. x = −1.10 and x = 1.10 x = −26.15 and x = 1.15 x = 0 x = −0.83 a
Margaret [11]

Answer:

  (a)  x = -1.10 and x = 1.10

Step-by-step explanation:

A straightforward square root will give the value of x.

<h3>Solution</h3>

Divide by the coefficient of x^2:

  x^2 -30/25 = 0

  x^2 -1.20 = 0

Add 1.20, and take the square root.

  x^2 = 1.20

  x = ±√1.20 ≈ ±1.0954

  x ≈ -1.10 and 1.10 . . . . . round to hundredths

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

For small values of x, the root of (1+x) is approximately 1+x/2. For a root accuracy to the nearest hundredth, x < 0.21 (as here). For accuracy to the nearest thousandth, x < 0.064.

According to a study, an average of six cell phone thefts is reported in San Francisco per day. Assume that the number of report
lions [1.4K]

Answer:0.29

Step-by-step explanation:

An average of six cell phone thefts is reported in San Francisco per day. This means our mean value, u = 6

For poisson distribution,

P(x=r) = (e^-u×u^r)/r!

probability that four cell phones will be reported stolen tomorrow=

P(x=4)= (e^-6×6^4)/4!

= (0.00248×1296)/4×3×2×1

= 3.21408/24=

0.13392

P(x=5)= (e^-6×6^5)/5!

= (0.00248×7776)/5×4×3×2×1

= 19.28448/120

= 0.1607

probability that four or five cell phones will be reported stolen tomorrow

= P(x=4) + P(x=5)

= 0.13392 + 0.1607

= 0.294624

Approximately 0.29
