Hey there! :D

y=2x-9

We can plug that in as y, since y is equal to 2x-9.

5x-3(2x-9)= 23

Distribute.

5x-6x+27= 23

-1x+27=23

Subtract 27 on both sides.

-1x=-4

Divide both sides by -1.

x=4

Now, plug that in for y.

y=2(4)-9

y=8-9

y=-1

(4,-1) <== solution

I hope this helps!

Answer:

And we got $\alpha/2 =0.01$ so then the value for $\alpha=0.02$ and then the confidence level is given by: $Conf=1-0.02=0.98[/tex[ or 98%Step-by-step explanation:A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval". The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval. Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean". [tex]p_1$ represent the real population proportion for 1

$\hat p_1 =0.768$ represent the estimated proportion for 1

$n_1=92$ is the sample size required for 1

$p_2$ represent the real population proportion for 2

$\hat p_2 =0.646$ represent the estimated proportion for 2

$n_2=95$ is the sample size required for 2

$z$ represent the critical value for the margin of error

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})$

The confidence interval for the difference of two proportions would be given by this formula

$(\hat p_1 -\hat p_2) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1} +\frac{\hat p_2 (1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}}$

For this case we have the confidence interval given by: (-0.0313,0.2753). From this we can find the margin of erro on this way:

$ME= \frac{0.2753-(-0.0313)}{2}=0.1533$

And we know that the margin of erro is given by:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1} +\frac{\hat p_2 (1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}}$

We have all the values except the value for $z_{\alpha/2}$

So we can find it like this:

$0.1533=z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{0.768(1-0.768)}{92} +\frac{0.646 (1-0.646)}{95}}$

And solving for $z_{\alpha/2}$ we got:

$z_{\alpha/2}=2.326$

And we can find the value for $\alpha/2$ with the following excel code:

"=1-NORM.DIST(2.326,0,1,TRUE)"

And we got $\alpha/2 =0.01$ so then the value for $\alpha=0.02$ and then the confidence level is given by: $Conf=1-0.02=0.98$ or 98%

The average age of instructors at a local college is 55, with a standard deviation of 6 years; the average salary is $37,000 wit

Lerok [7]

To solve for the coefficient of variation you will need this formula:
CV = (SD/X) x 100
Where: CV = Coefficient of Variance
X = Mean/average
SD = Standard Deviation

To determine which one is more variable, just get the coefficient of both and compare.
AGE SALARY

CV = (6/55) x 100 CV = (4,100/37,000) x 100
= 10.90 = 11.08

Based on the results, salary is more variable because 10.90<11.08.
