Let the larger number be w and the smaller number be k;
5w-11=3k
3k+16=4w
Reorganizing the equations;
5w-3k=11
4w-3k=16
Subtracting equation 2 from equation 1:
w=-5
Replacing value of w in equation 1;
5(-5)-11=3k
-25-11=3k
3k=-36
k=-12
The numbers are -5 and -12

Find the measure of side XY.
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

XY = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The figures are similar so the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{XY}{BC} = \frac{YZ}{CD} , substitute values

\frac{XY}{12} = \frac{15}{10} ( cross- multiply )

10 XY = 180 ( divide both sides by 10 )

XY = 18

For which data set is a linear regression most reasonable?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. A set of nine data pairs with a correlation coefficient r = -0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistical analysis, it is important to make use of an adequate sample size in order to arrive at a valid result. An analysis with a very small sample size can provide misleading results

When performing regression analysis it is generally accepted by researchers that each variable should have at least 10 observations.

Therefore, the data set having nine data pairs with a negative correlation of -0.4 will provide the most valid result that can then be used for generalization about the larger statistical population.

Suppose the function f(x) = 0.035x represents the number of U.S. dollars equivalent to x Russian rubles, and the function g(x) =
const2013 [10]

Answer:

g(f(x)) = 3.15x

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of Japanese yen equivalent to x russian rubles, we need to put one function into another.

If we take f(x) and put in into g(x), we will get Japanese yen in terms of rubles. Thus,

g(f(x)) = 90 (0.035x)

g(f(x)) = 3.15x

THis is the composite function which represents the number of Japanese yen equivalent to x Russian Rubles.

What are two expressions that are equivalent to 6(5j + 2 + j)?<br><br><br><br>​
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

1. 30j+12+6j

2. 36j+12

3. 6(6j+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You just multiply so... 6x5j ... 6x2 ... 6xj

2. you multiply and then simplify so first you have 30j+12+6j, so you add like terms so... 30j+6j= 36j and then +12

3. you do what's in the parentheses first so 5j+j=6j so .... 6(6j+2)
