Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Here;

The equations are;

8x + 7y = 39.......(i)

4x - 14y =  - 68..........(ii)

Multiplying equation (i) by 2.

16x + 14y = 78

<u>4</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>4</u><u>y</u><u> </u><u> </u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>-68</u>

20x = 10

x =  \frac{10}{20}

x = 1/2.

Putting value of 'x' in equation (i).

8 \times  \frac{1}{2}  + 7y =  39

4 + 7y = 39

7y = 3 9 - 4

y =  \frac{35}{7}

Therefore the value of y is 5.

<u>Check</u><u>:</u>

<u>Put</u><u> </u><u>value</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>and</u><u> </u><u>y</u><u> </u><u>in</u><u> </u><u>equation</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>i</u><u>)</u><u>.</u>

8x + 7y = 39

8 \times  \frac{1}{2}  + 7 \times 5 = 39

4 + 35 = 39

39 = 39

(True).

<u>Therefore</u><u>, </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>solution</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>;</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>1</u><u>/</u><u>2</u><u>,</u><u>5</u><u>)</u><u>.</u>

Answer:

<u>The standard deviation of the uniform distribution is:</u>

  • σ=(b−a)/√12

<u>U(3, 12)</u>

  • σ = (12−3)/√12 = 9/√12 = 2.5981

<u>U(80, 250)</u>

  • σ = (250−80)/√12 = 170/√12 = 49.0748

<u>U(4, 93)</u>

  • σ = (93−4)/√12 = 89/√12 = 25.6921
