Answer:

(-1,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is;

$y=-5x-8...(1)$

and

$y=4x+1...(2)$

Let us equate the two equations to get;

$4x+1=-5x-8$

Group similar terms;

$4x+5x=-8-1$

Simplify;

$9x=-9$

Divide both sides by 9.

$x=-1$

Put x=-1, into any of the equations, say (2);

$y=4(-1)+1$

$y=-4+1$

$y=-3$

The solution is;

(-1,-3)

What is the average (arithmetic mean) of the first 90 measurements in a certain list of 92 measurements? (1) the average of the

marishachu [46]

The sum of all the measurements is just the average times the number.

$\bar x = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n x_i$

$\sum_{i=1}^n x_i = n \bar x$

So if the average of all 92 is 7 the sum of those is $92 \times 7$

The average of the last two is 7.2 so their sum is $2 \times 7.2$

That means the sum of the first 90 is $92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2$

so the average of the first 90 is

$\dfrac{92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2}{90} = 6.99556$ cm

Find the values of the power in the following pattern: (10)1, (10)2, (10)3, (10)4....Describe the pattern, and use it to evaluat

Irina18 [472]

10^1 = 10
10^2 = 100 {10 x 10 = 100}
10^3 = 1000 {10 x 10 x 10 = 1,000}
10^4 = 10000 {10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 10,000}

The exponent represents how many zeros will be used in the answer. For example, 10^6 would include 6 zeros in it’s answer; 1,000,000.

The length of the rectangle is three more than the width find the length of the rectangle if the perimeter is 98 inches

Aleks [24]

Answer:

length is 26 and width is 23

Step-by-step explanation:

let width be x

then length is 3+x since it is 3 more than the width

perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

98=2 [3+x] + 2x

98=6+2x+2x

98=6+4x

98-6=4x

92=4x

x=23

width is 23 and

breadth is 26
