Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4x+y=14

x-2y=8

then;

x=8-2y

substitute;

4(8-2y)+8-2y=14

32-8y+8-2y=14

40-10y=14

26=10y

y=2.6 , work out 4x+2.6=14 to get x

Answer:

y=-2

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

add 2y to both sides of equation 2

x-2y=8

x=8+2y

now that we have determined that x equals 2y, we can use it to substitute it in the first equation

4x+y=14

4(8+2y)+y=14

multiply 4 times the numbers in the parentheses

4(8+2y)+y=14

32+8y+y=14

isolate variables by subtracting 32 from both sides

32+8y+y=14

8y+y=-18

combine like terms

8y+y=-18

9y=-18

solve by dividing both sides by 9

9y=-18

y=-2

now that we know that y=-2, lets substitute it to solve for x

4x+y=14

4x-2=14

add 2 to both sides

4x-2=14

4x=16

divide both sides by 4

4x=16

x=4

5. The heights of 500 female students are measured, half of whom are college students and half of whom are second-grade students
AysviL [449]

Using statistical concepts, it is found that:

  • 2 modes would be expected for the distribution.
  • The distribution would be symmetric.

-------------------------------

  • Heights are traditionally normally distributed, which is a symmetric distribution.
  • Second-grade students are considerably shorter than college students, so there would be two modes.
  • Both distributions, for the height of second grade and of college students, are normal, which is symmetric, thus the combined distribution will also be symmetric.

Josh believes the Spanish club students at his school have an unfair advantage in being assigned to the Spanish class they reque
Svetach [21]
<span>You can calculate the following probabilities:
1. Given that a sampled student is in the Spanish Club, what is the probability they got the Spanish class they requested?
2. Given that a sampled student is not in the Spanish Club, what is the probability they got the Spanish class they requested? If there is a significant difference between the two probabilities, it indicates there is a bias in the selection procedure.

</span><span>Given that, a sampled student is in the Spanish Club, the probability they got the Spanish class they requested is given by 265/335. Given that, a sampled student is not in the Spanish Club, the probability they got the Spanish class they requested is given by 100/165.
</span>
<span>If a student is at the Spanish club, the probability they got the Spanish class they requested is 265/335 = 0.79. If a student is not in the Spanish club, the probability they got the Spanish class they requested is 100/165 = 0.61.
</span>
<span>Based on the calculation, all students do not have an equal chance of getting into the Spanish class that they requested.</span>
