Answer: 2, 6 are the numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

x and 8-x are the numbers, because they add to 8

x=(1/3)(8-x)

x=2-(1/3)x

(2/3)x=2

x=2

8-x=6

2 and 6 are the numbers.

Hope this helps!!!

Solveing systems of equations by substitution y=6x-11 -2x-3y=-7
sergiy2304 [10]

\bf \begin{cases} \boxed{y}=6x-11\\ \cline{1-1} -2x-3y=-7 \end{cases}\qquad \implies \stackrel{\textit{substituting \underline{y} in the 2nd equation}}{-2x-3\left( \boxed{6x-11} \right)=-7}

\bf -2x-18x+33=-7\implies -20x+33=-7\implies -20x=-40 \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{-40}{-20}\implies \blacktriangleright x=2 \blacktriangleleft \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{since we know that }}{y=6x-11}\implies y=6(2)-11\implies y=12-11\implies \blacktriangleright y=1 \blacktriangleleft \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ ~\hfill (2,1)~\hfill

Zach is trying to decide which of three golf
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

No, the population of people is poorly represented with this low sample size. 150 would better represent the population as a whole. 42 people would want to play on Rolling Meadows. (according to the previous data)

Step-by-step explanation:

Most likely this small sample size is too small to gain sufficient data from the whole population. If he were to survey a larger sample of people, he would overall better represent the population as a whole. The percentage of people who would prefer Rolling Meadows in the first sample was 28% (7/25). So just multiply 150 times .28 and get 42. 42 people would want to play on Rolling Meadows.
