Answer:

So if we are solving for x and y. First we need to subtract both equations. We take each equation and put in parenthesis and subtract.

y-y = (3x+7)-(-2x-3) =

0 = 3x+7+2x+3

0 = 5x+10

-10 = 5x

-2 = x.

Now we need to solve for y.

Plug it in for the first equation. -2*3+7 = -6+7 = 1

Test if we are correct and try in the second equation.

-2*-2-3 = 4-3 = 1

x = -2

y = 1

madam [21]

Answer:

D.Place the compass on a point on the original line.

Complete Question:

A.Create only one arc that intersects the original line.

B.Create two arcs that intersect the original line.

C.Place the compass on a point off the original line.

D.Place the compass on a point on the original line.

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the steps of constructing parallel lines and a perpendicular line through a point on the line

# Contracting parallel lines

- Given: Line AB and point P not on AB

1. Draw a slant line through point P and intersects AB at point C, this line is the transversal of the parallel lines

2. Place the pin of the compass at point C and draw an arc intersects AB at D and CP at E

3. Without changing the distance of the compass put the pin of the compass on point P and draw an arc intersects CP at point Q

4. Use the compass to measure the distance from D to E and place the pin of the compass at point Q and draw an arc intersects the arc from P to CP at point U

5. Join P and U by a line this line is parallel to AB

# Constructing a perpendicular line through a point on the line

- Given line AB and point P lies on it

1. Place your compass pin at P and draw an arc of any size below AB that crosses the line twice at points C and D

2. Stretch the compass to a larger distance

3. Place the compass pin on point C and draw a small arc above the line

4. Without changing the distance of the compass place the compass pin on point D and draw another arc intersects the arc from C at point E

5. Using a straightedge, join P and E where PE is perpendicular to AB

* Lets find the same steps in the constructions

∵ In first construction we put the pin of the compass at point C which lies in the original line AB

∵ In second construction we put the pin of the compass at point P which lies in the original line AB

∴ The common step is: "Place the compass on a point on the original line"

Write the equation of the line that passes through (1, 3) and has a slope of 2 in point-slope form. A) y – 1 = 2(x – 3) B) y – 3

fomenos

So point slope form is y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y intercept so

in (x,y) form
one solution is x=1 and y=3, also slope is 2 so
m=2
subsitute
3=2(1)+b
3=2+b
subtract 2
1=b
equation is
y=2x+1

tricky answers so simplify them
A: y-1=2(x-3)
distribute
y-1=2x-6
add 1
y=2x-5
not the answer

B: y-3=2(x-1)
distribute
y-3=2x-2
add 3
y=2x+1
correct
the answer is B

A study shows that 20% of college students pray daily in their own religious beliefs. In a group of 300 college students, find t

svetlana [45]

Answer:

0.2805

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that p = 20% = 0.2, n = 300.

The mean (μ) = np = 0.2 * 300 = 60

The standard deviation (σ) = $\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{300*0.2(1-0.2)}=6.93$

The z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma }$

For x = 57:

$z=\frac{57-60}{6.93 } =-0.43$

For x = 62:

$z=\frac{62-60}{6.93 } =0.29$

From the normal distribution table, P(57 < x < 62) = P(-0.43 < z < 0.29) = P(z < 0.29) - P(z < -0.43) = 0.6141 - 0.3336 = 0.2805

Thirty percent of all customers who enter a department store will make a purchase. Suppose that 6 customers enter the store and

torisob [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use binomial distribution, because we are interested in find the total number of successes in a sequence of n independent experiments.

In probability, a binomial distribution is used in a Bernoulli process. That is, a sequence of experiments of n independent trials, each asking a dichotomous question, that means it only has two answers. One answer is a success (probability: p) and the other is a failure (probability: 1-p). In this case, every customer who enters in the store is the experiment. If they make a purchase is a success event, taking into account that every purchase decision has to be independent.

$P(X=x) = C(n,x)p^{x} (1-p)^{n-x}$

x= total number of success

n= total number of experiments

p=probability of success on an indivual trial

$C(n,x) = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

a) x= 5 ------> customers that make a purchase

n= 6 ------> total customers

p=0.3

$p(X=5)= C(6,5)(0.3)^{5} (1-0.3)^{6-5} \\p(X=5)=0.102$

b) At least 3 customers make a purchase. x ≥ 3

$P(X\geq 3)=1-P (X=0)-P(X=1)-P(X=2)\\P(X\geq 3)=1-(C(6,0)(0.3^{0})(0.7)^{6}) - (C(6,1)(0.3^{1})(0.7)^{5}) - (C(6,2)(0.3^{2})(0.7)^{4})\\ P(X\geq 3) = 1-0.11765-0.30253-0.32414\\P(X\geq3)= 0.2557$

c) At most 2 customers make a purchase. x ≤ 2

$P(X\leq2) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)\\P(X\leq2) = (C(6,0)(0.3^{0})(0.7)^{6}) + (C(6,1)(0.3^{1})(0.7)^{5}) + (C(6,2)(0.3^{2})(0.7)^{4})\\P(X\leq2) = 0.11765-0.30253-0.32414\\P(X\leq2)=0.7443$

d)At least 1 customer makes a purchase. x ≥ 1

$P(X\geq 1)=1-P(X=0)\\P(X\geq 1)= 1-C(0,6)(0.3)^{0}(0.7)^{6} \\P(X\geq 1)= 1-0.11765 = 0.8824$

e)They must be kind to customers, always willing to help and give information about products clearly and honestly.

Have enough inventory and offer promotions for the purchase of more than one product

Have an agile payment system that avoids rows and delays in purchases.
