Alright...simple...showing all steps.. ;)

You have the equations...

2x+y=7
and
3x+5y=14

To be able to even solve for any of the variables...multiply the equations by...2...and..3...

2x+y=7----*3--> 6x+3y=21
and
3x+5y=14-----*2--->6x+10y=28

Thus,

6x+3y=21
-
6x+10y=28

=========

-7y=-7

y=1

Now, plug y back into any of the original equations....we'll use 2x+y=7 in this case....

2x+(1)=7

2x+1=7
      -1  -1

2x=6

x=3

Thus, the point of intersection for these two equations is (3,1)

Let X be the mean of a random sample of size n = 64 from the uniform distribution on the interval (0, 3), i.e. f(x) = ( 1 3 , 0
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

P ( 1.2 < X < 2.1 ) = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Uniform distribution over interval (0,3) can be modeled by a probability density function f(x)

f(x) = 1 / (b - a)

Where a < x < b is the domain at which function is defined:

f(x) = 1 / (3) = 1 / 3

Where, X - U ( u , δ )

u = ( a + b ) / 2 = (0 +3) / 2 = 1.5

δ = ( b - a ) / sqrt (12) = (3 - 0) / sqrt (12) = 0.866

Hence,

X - U ( 1.5 , 0.866 )

There-fore calculating P ( 1.2 < X < 2.1 ):

P ( 1.2 < X < 2.1 ) = \int\limits^b_a{f(x)} \, dx

Where, a = 1.2 and b = 2.1

P ( 1.2 < X < 2.1 ) = x / 3 |

P ( 1.2 < X < 2.1 ) = 2.1 /3 - 1.2 / 3 = 0.3

Answer: P ( 1.2 < X < 2.1 ) = 0.3

I need help with this one because I got my answers wrong
cluponka [151]
40+60+y=180
y=180-100
y=80

A triangle is 180° so you add all the numbers available in the trianle and minus it with 180 to see what is left from the 180 and that will be the inner angle answer

X=180-80=100

A straight line is also 180° so if u minused one side which in our case is 80 u will get the rest which is the outer angle
