Answer:
x=−7
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Answer:
x = -2 , y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
given:
5x + 2y = -2 <em>*4</em>
4x + 3y = 4 <em>*5</em>
Solving simultaneously,
20x + 8y = -8 ....eq 1
(-) 20x +15y = 20 ...eq 2
.............................................
-7y = -28
y = -28 / -7
y = 4
using equation 2,
20x +15(4) = 20
20x = -40
x = -2
Answer:
a) P(X<50)=0.9827
b) P(X>47)=0.4321
c) P(-1.5<z<1.5)=0.8664
Step-by-step explanation:
We will calculate the probability based on a random sample of one moped out of the population, normally distributed with mean 46.7 and standard deviation 1.75.
a) This means we have to calculate P(x<50).
We will calculate the z-score and then calculate the probability accordign to the standard normal distribution:

b) We have to calculatee P(x>47).
We will calculate the z-score and then calculate the probability accordign to the standard normal distribution:

c) If the value differs 1.5 standard deviations from the mean value, we have a z-score of z=1.5

So the probability that maximum speed differs from the mean value by at most 1.5 standard deviations is P(-1.5<z<1.5):

Answer: The scale factor is 4
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the pyramids are similar. The volume of one of these pyramids is 13,824 cubic feet and the volume of the other one is 216 cubic feet. Then:

By Similar solids theorem, if two similar solids have a scale factor of
, then corresponding volumes have a ratio of 
Then:

Knowing this, we can find the scale factor. This is:
![\frac{13,824}{216}=\frac{a^3}{b^3}\\\\\frac{13,824}{216}=(\frac{a}{b})^3\\\\\frac{a}{b}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{13,824}{216}}\\\\scale\ factor=\frac{a}{b}=4](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B13%2C824%7D%7B216%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7Ba%5E3%7D%7Bb%5E3%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7B13%2C824%7D%7B216%7D%3D%28%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bb%7D%29%5E3%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bb%7D%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B13%2C824%7D%7B216%7D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cscale%5C%20factor%3D%5Cfrac%7Ba%7D%7Bb%7D%3D4)
Take the second equation and flip it around so the y on the left ends up on the right and the 4x on the right ends up on the left. This makes all negatives positive and all positives negative. -4x + 12 = y
Then add the first equation to the second equation
4x +12 = -7y
<u>-4x + 12 </u>=<u> y </u> this eliminates the x's
<u>24</u> = -<u> 6y</u> then divide by - 6
- 6 - 6
- 4 = y<u>
</u>So if you know that y = negative 4, you can substitute into either equation. I pick the second one because I am a lazy person.
-y + 12 = 4 x
-(-4) + 12 = 4 x combine your numbers<u>
</u> <u> 16 </u> = <u>4 x </u> then divide by 4<u>
</u> 4 = x
So your solution is: x = 4 and y = -4 or this is also written (4, -4)
Does that work for you?
