The numbers are "x" and "y",
we suggest this system of equations.
x+y=24
x-y=15
solve by reduction method.
x+y=24
x-y=15
-----------------
2x=39      ⇒x=39/2=19.5

  x+y=24
-(x-y=15)
-------------------
   2y=9    ⇒y=9/2=4.5

The numbers are 19.5 and 4.5

To check
19.5+4.5=24
19.5-4.5=15

Which of the following is a benefit of increasing the sample size when trying to estimate the mean from a sample average?
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The larger the sample size, the lower the standard deviation. The standard deviation shows how the data is spread from the mean. Therefore, benefit of increasing the sample size when trying to estimate the mean from a sample average are

a. A reduction in the bias of the estimate.

b. A reduction in the variability of the estimate.

The width of confidence interval is determined by the margin of error

Margin of error = z × s/√n

A smaller standard deviation and increased size would result to a narrower confidence interval. Therefore, increasing the sample size does not result to an increase in the width of the resulting confidence interval.

Please show the steps I need this right now I’m taking a test8(x−4)&lt;7x−3
Olegator [25]

Answer:

x < 29

Step-by-step explanation:

8(x−4)<7x−3; distribute 8 in the parenthesis

8x - 32 < 7x - 3; subtract 7x from both sides

x - 32 < -3; add 32 to both sides

x < 29
