P = printer

M = microwave

Weight Equation: 20P + 30M = 1600

Size equation: 3P + 2M = 150

Solve Weight Equation:

20P + 30M = 1600

Subtract 30M from each side:

20P = 1600 - 30M

Divide both sides by 20:

P = 80 - 3/2M

Replace P in size equation with above:

3(80 - 3/2M) + 2M = 150

240 - 4.5M + 2M = 150

240-2.5M = 150

Subtract 240 from each side:

-2.5M = -90

Divide both sides by -2.5:

M = 36

Now solve for P:

3P + 2(36) = 150

3P = 72 = 150

3P = 78

P = 78/3

P = 26

26 Printers and 36 Microwaves.

How to solve this question

VMariaS [17]

The variance method is as follows.

-Sum the squares of the values in data set, and then divide by the number of values in data set
- From that, subtract the square of the mean (add all values and divide by number of values in the data set)

Our variance is

 $\displaystyle\sigma^2 = \frac{2^2 + 5^2 + m^2}{3} - \left(\frac{2 + 5 + m}{3}\right)^2$

Since variance has to be 14, we set $\sigma^2 = 14$ and solve for m

$14= \frac{4 + 25 + m^2}{3} - \left(\frac{7 + m}{3}\right)^2\ \Rightarrow \\ \\
14 = \frac{29}{3} + \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{1}{9}(7+m)^2 \\ \\
14 = \frac{29}{3}+ \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{1}{9}(49 + 14m + m^2) \\ \\
14 = \frac{29}{3}+ \frac{1}{3}m^2 - \frac{49}{9}- \frac{14}{9}m- \frac{1}{9}m^2 \\ \\
0 = \frac{-88}{9} -\frac{14}{9}m + \frac{2}{9}m^2
$

quadratic formula

$m = \displaystyle\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a} \\
m = \frac{-(-\frac{14}{9}) \pm \sqrt{\left(-\frac{14}{9}\right)^2 - 4(2/9)(-88/9)} }{2(2/9)} \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{196}{81} + \frac{704}{81} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{900}{81} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \sqrt{ \frac{100}{9} } }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = \frac{\frac{14}{9} \pm \frac{10}{3} }{\frac{4}{9} } \\
m = 11, -4$

-4 doesnt' work as it is not a positive integer

m = 11

Find f(-5) of f (x) = x + 1 1) 4 2) 5 6) 6

Alex

F(-5) just means that your substituting the number -5 for every x value. So if you have x+1 this would be -5+1 which is -4
