Answer:

x = 2 y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x - 2

x = y - 2

Plug in the equation of x into the first equation and solve for y.

y = 3x - 2

y = 3(y - 2) - 2 Multiply out

y = 3y - 6 - 2

y = 3y - 8     Add 8 to each side

y + 8 = 3y - 8 + 8      8 cancels on the right

y + 8 = 3y          Subtract y from each side

y - y + 8 = 3y - y       The y on the left cancels

8 = 2y      Divide each side by 2

8/2 = 2y/2   2 on the right cancels because 2/2 = 1

8/2 = y

4 = y  

Now plug your answer into the 2nd equation given to solve for x.

x = y - 2

x = 4 - 2

x = 2

The spinner for a board game has eight colors the arrow can land on. What are the degrees of freedom for a goodness-of-fit test
Juliette [100K]

Answer: Option 'c' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of colors that the arrow can land on = 8

We need to find the degrees of freedom for a goodness of fit test of the fairness of this spinner.

As we know that degree of freedom is 1 less than the size of sample.

So, Mathematically, it is expressed as below:

So, Degree of freedom would be

v=n-1\\\\v=8-1\\\\v=7

Hence, Option 'c' is correct.
