Answer: 3

=================================================

Explanation:

Using a calculator, you should find that

233/999 = 0.233233233233...

the "233" repeats forever. We see that there are 3 digits here, which is the answer.

Solve the following system using elimination:
{-2 x + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{-2 x - y + z = -3 | (equation 2)
{2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Subtract equation 1 from equation 2:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x - 3 y - 2 z = -3 | (equation 2)
{2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 2 by -1:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 2)
{2 x + 3 y + 3 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Add equation 1 to equation 3:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 2)
{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 3)

Swap equation 2 with equation 3:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)
{0 x+3 y + 2 z = 3 | (equation 3)

Subtract 3/5 × (equation 2) from equation 3:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y - (8 z)/5 = 0 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by 5/8:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y - z = 0 | (equation 3)

Multiply equation 3 by -1:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+5 y + 6 z = 5 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 6 × (equation 3) from equation 2:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+5 y+0 z = 5 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 2 by 5:
{-(2 x) + 2 y + 3 z = 0 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 2 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{-(2 x) + 0 y+3 z = -2 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)
v0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Subtract 3 × (equation 3) from equation 1:
{-(2 x)+0 y+0 z = -2 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Divide equation 1 by -2:
{x+0 y+0 z = 1 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y+0 z = 1 | (equation 2)
{0 x+0 y+z = 0 | (equation 3)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 1, y = 1, z = 0

Which calculation can be used to find the value of q in the equation q3 = 64?

alexandr402 [8]

To isolate the variable q, divide both sides by 3:
q3 ÷ 3 = 64 ÷ 3
q = 21.33 or 21 1/3

If the q is cubed(I can't really tell), however, you would use the cube root:
³√q³ = ³√64
q = 4

A researcher is interested in knowing the average height of the men in a village. To the researcher, the population of interest

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The population mean height of men in the village is 5.78 feet.

The sample mean height of men in the village is 7.8 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that the researcher's interest is in knowing the average height of the men in a village.

To the researcher, the population of interest is the men in the village, the relevant population data are the height of men in the village, and the population parameter of interest is the mean height of men.

It is also provided that there are 590 men in the village, and the sum of their heights is 3,410.2 feet.

Compute the average height as follows:

$\bar X_{H}=\frac{3410.2}{590}=5.78\ \text{feet}$

Thus, the population mean height of men in the village is 5.78 feet.

It is given that the researcher measured the heights of 18 village men and calculated the average to estimate the average height of all the village men.

The sample for his estimation is 18 men, the relevant sample data are the heights of the 18 men, and the sample statistic is the sample mean height.

It is also given that the sum of the heights of the 18 village men is 104.4 feet.

Compute the average height of the 18 men as follows:

$\bar x_{H}=\frac{104.4}{18}=7.8\ \text{feet}$

Thus, the sample mean height of men in the village is 7.8 feet.
