Solve for x in the simultaneous equation 2x+y=3 ,5x-2y=12

Mathematics
1 answer:
sp2606 [1]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2x + y = 3 → (1)

5x - 2y = 12 → (2)

Multiplying (1) by 2 and adding to (2) will eliminate the y- term

4x + 2y = 6 → (3)

Add (2) and (3) term by term

(5x + 4x ) +( - 2y + 2y) = 12 + 6 , that is

9x = 18 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 2

a survey of an urban university (population of 25,450) showed that 750 of 1,100 students sampled attended a home football game d
DiKsa [7]

The confidence interval for the proportion of students attending a football game is [0.6592, 0.7044].

Confidence interval can be calculated by below formula

Pcap - Z_{\alpha /2}\sqrt{\frac{Pcap(1 - Pcap)}{n} } < p < Pcap + Z_{\alpha /2}\sqrt{\frac{Pcap(1 - Pcap)}{n} }

where the left part is the lower interval and right side is the higher interval.

Pcap = 750/1100

Pcap = 0.6818

Again to calculate Z_{\alpha /2} , as we know that the level of confidence is 90 percent so its value will be 1.645

now putting the values on the both side we can get ,

0.6818 - 1.645 x 0.014 < p  <  0.6818 + 1.645 x 0.014

0.6818 - 0.023  < p < 0.6818 + 0.023

0.6588 < p < 0.7048

the nearest value is [0.6592, 0.7044]

Hence the confidence interval for the proportion of students attending a football game is [0.6592, 0.7044]

If r(x) = 3x - 1 and s(x) = 2x + 1, which expression is equivalent to (r/s)(6)?
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

17/13

Step-by-step explanation:

r(6) = 3(6) - 1 = 17 and s(6) = 2(6) + 1 = 13.

Then (r/s)(6) = 17/13.
