3x + y = 17<br> 4x - y = 18
Inessa05 [86]
The two equations given are
3x + y = 17 and 4x - y = 18
Now we will first take one equation
3x + y = 17
Then
y = 17 - 3x
Now replacing the value of y in the second equation we get
4x - y = 18
4x - (17 - 3x) = 18
4x + 3x - 17 = 18
7x = 35
 x = 35/7
   = 5
Putting the value of x in the first equation we get
3x + y = 17
(3 * 5) + y = 17
15 + y = 17
y = 17 - 15
y = 2
So the value of x is 5 and y is 2

Given the following equation x2 + 4x = 21 find the solutions. (Show All Work)
NeTakaya

Step-by-step explanation:

15a)

x^2+4x=21               Subtract both sides by 21

x^2+4x-21 =0

15b)

7 and -3 multiply to -21 and add to 4

The factors are (x+7)(x-3)

15c)

x+7 =0

x=-7  

x-3=0

x=3

Can anyone help me out with this please!
Helga [31]

Answer:

h(x)=\frac{1}{4}|x|

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to vertically stretch a function, we just need to multiply the function by our stretch factor.

So, we have the function:

g(x)=|x|

We want to find the equation of this function vertically shrunk by a factor of 1/4. So, multiplied the function by 1/4:

h(x)=\frac{1}{4}|x|

And this will be our answer :)

a 2015 Gallup poll of 1,627 adults found that only 22% felt fully engaged with their mortgage provider ?
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

1. The population of interest on this case is people who felt fully engaged with their mortgage provider

2. On this case the sample size is 1627 the number of people sample selected.

3. ME=1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.22 (1-0.22)}{1627}}=0.0201    

4. The 95% confidence interval would be given (0.1999;0.2401).  

5. We are confident 95% that the true proportion of proportion is between 0.1999 and 0.2401.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

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".  

The population proportion have the following distribution

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

1. What is the population?

The population of interest on this case is people who felt fully engaged with their mortgage provider

2. What is the sample size?

On this case the sample size is 1627 the number of people sample selected.

3. What is the 95% margin of error?

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    (a)  

If we replace we got:

ME=1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.22 (1-0.22)}{1627}}=0.0201    

4. What is the 95% confidence interval?

The confidence interval would be given by this formula  

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}  

For the 95% confidence interval the value of \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2=0.025, with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.  

z_{\alpha/2}=1.96  

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:  

0.22 - 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.22(1-0.22)}{1627}}=0.1999  

0.22 + 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.22(1-0.22)}{1627}}=0.2401  

And the 95% confidence interval would be given (0.1999;0.2401).  

5. Express your answer to 4 in a meaningful sentence.

We can conclude this:

We are confident 95% that the true proportion of proportion is between 0.1999 and 0.2401.

In a parallelogram whose area is 15, the base is represented by x+7 and the altitude x-7. Find the base of parallelogram.
Sati [7]
Area = (base)*(height)
15 = (x+7)(x-7)
(x+7)(x-7) = 15
x^2 - 49 = 15
x^2 - 49+49 = 15+49
x^2 = 64
sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(64)
x = 8 ... note that x can't be negative

If x = 8, then the base is...
x+7 = 8+7 = 15

Therefore the base is 15 units. 
(the height is x-7 = 8-7 = 1 unit)
