Okay, these get easy with practice so don't post all of these online. First, substitute y in 3x-2y=9 for what it says y equals (2x-7). You now have: 3x-2(2x-7)=9. Breakdown:
3x-2(2x-7)=9
3x-4x+14=9
-1x=-5
x=5
next solve for y
y=2x-7
y=2(5)-7
y=10-7
y=3
And now we have x=5, and y=3.

Since you know that "y" is equivalent to "2x - 7" you can substitute that into the first equation

3x - 2y = 9
3x - [2(2x-7)]= 9
3x - (4x - 14) = 9
3x - 4x + 14 = 9
-x + 14 = 9
-x = -5
x = 5

y = 2x - 7
y = 2(5) - 7
y = 10 - 7
y = 3

Determine whether the value is a discrete random variable, continuous random variable, or not a random variable.

Viktor [21]

Discrete random variable as we count the number of free dash throw attempts and we dont measure them (continuous)

What is the simplified form of the following expression?

kogti [31]

Answer:

$\sqrt{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We will be using 2 properties of radicals in this simplification (outlined below).

$\sqrt{a*b}=\sqrt{a}* \sqrt{b}$
$\sqrt{a}*\sqrt{a}=a$

<em>Let's simplify this:</em>

$2\sqrt{27} +\sqrt{12} -3\sqrt{3}-2\sqrt{12}\\ =2\sqrt{9*3}+\sqrt{4*3} -3\sqrt{3}-2\sqrt{4*3} \\=2\sqrt{9} \sqrt{3} +\sqrt{4} \sqrt{3}-3\sqrt{3}-2\sqrt{4} \sqrt{3} \\=2(3)\sqrt{3}+(2)\sqrt{3} -3\sqrt{3}-2(2)\sqrt{3} \\ =6\sqrt{3} +2\sqrt{3}-3\sqrt{3}-4\sqrt{3} \\=\sqrt{3}$

First answer choice is right.

A score that is three standard deviations above the mean would have a z score of

tia_tia [17]

The value of z-score for a score that is three standard deviations above the mean is 3.

In this question,

A z-score measures exactly how many standard deviations a data point is above or below the mean. It allows us to calculate the probability of a score occurring within our normal distribution and enables us to compare two scores that are from different normal distributions.

Let x be the score

let μ be the mean and

let σ be the standard deviations

Now, x = μ + 3σ

The formula of z-score is

$z_{score} = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$
