Answer:
B: (2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
1) First isolate the y in both equations
2) Set the equations equal to each other
3) Solve for x (you should get 2 and 5)
4) Insert the x values back in to get your y values
5) You should have gotten (2, -1) and (5, 2)
These are your two answers, but the question is only asking for one solution and (5,2) isn't one of the options, so it has to be (2,-1).
Answer:
Sample mean = 7.1
Margin of error = 0.465
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for confidence interval is;
CI = x¯ ± zE
Where;
x¯ is sample mean
z is critical value at confidence level
E is margin of error.
z for 99% Cl is 2.58
We are told the CI is 5.9 to 8.3.
Thus;
5.9 = x¯ - 2.58E - - - - (1)
8.3 = x¯ + 2.58E - - - - (2)
Add both equations together to get;
14.2 = 2x¯
x¯ = 14.2/2
x¯ = 7.1
Put 7.1 for x¯ in eq 1 to get;
5.9 = 7.1 - 2.58E
7.1 - 5.9 = 2.58E
E = 1.2/2.58
E = 0.465
2(n+4) + 6 = (1/2)(3-n)
Then 2n + 8 + 6 = 3/2 - n/2
and 2n + 14 = 3/2 - n/2
(5/2)n = 3/2 - 28/2 = -25/2
-25/2
n = -------------- = -5 (answer)
5/2
