What is the solution to the system of equations?

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-4, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

The two equations have the same coefficient for y, so you can eliminate y by subtracting one equation from the other. Here the x coefficient is largest for the first equation, so it will work best to subtract the second equation.

  (3x +y) -(2x +y) = (3) -(7)

  x = -4 . . . . . . . . simplify

Now, we can find y by substituting this value for x.

  2(-4) +y = 7

  y = 7 +8 = 15 . . . . . add 8 to both sides of the equation

The solution is (x, y) = (-4, 15).

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

x = 2 or 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

-13/4 -x= 1/2x -1

Collect like terms

-13/4+1=1/2x+x

Using LCM

(-13+4)/4=(1+2x²)/2x

9/4=(1+2x²)/2x

Cross multiply

9(2x)=4(1+2x²)

18x=4+8x²

Turn into quadratic and solve

8x²-18x+4

Using formulae method

-b±(√b²-4ac)/2a

Where a=8, b= -18 and c=4

(-(-18)±(√(-18)²-4(8)(4))/2(8)

(18±(√324-128))/16

(18±√196)/16

(18±14)/16

(18+14)/16 or (18-14)/16

32/16 or 4/16

2 or 1/4

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

5.6 thousand

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean absolute deviation (MAD), first find the mean (or average).

μ = (41 + 38 + 36 + 57 + 43) / 5

μ = 43

Next, subtract the mean from each value and take the absolute value.

|41 − 43| = 2

|38 − 43| = 5

|36 − 43| = 7

|57 − 43| = 14

|43 − 43| = 0

Sum the results and divide by the number of animals.

MAD = (2 + 5 + 7 + 14 + 0) / 5

MAD = 5.6
