Solve the system of linear equations using multiplication.

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

$(8,-1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system is:

$3x+3y=21$

$6x+12y=36$

Since I prefer to use smaller numbers I'm going to divide both sides of the first equation by 3 and both sides of the equation equation by 6.

This gives me the system:

$x+y=7$

$x+2y=6$

We could solve the first equation for $x$ and replace the second $x$ with that.

Let's do that.

$x+y=7$

Subtract $y$ on both sides:

$x=7-y$

So we are replacing the second $x$ in the second equation with $(7-y)$ which gives us:

$(7-y)+2y=6$

$7-y+2y=6$

$7+y=6$

$y=6-7$

$y=-1$

Now recall the first equation we arranged so that $x$ was the subject. I'm referring to $x=7-y$ .

We can now find $x$ given that $y=-1$ using the equation $x=7-y$ .

Let's do that.

$x=7-y$ with $y=-1$ :

$x=7-(-1)$

$x=7+1$

$x=8$

So the solution is (8,-1).

We can check this point by plugging it into both equations.

If both equations render true for that point, then we have verify the solution.

Let's try it.

$3x+3y=21$ with $(x,y)=(8,-1)$ :

$3(8)+3(-1)=21$

$24+(-3)=21$

$21=21$ is a true equation so the "solution" looks promising still.

$6x+12y=36$ with $(x,y)=(8,-1)$ :

$6(8)+12(-1)=36$

$48+(-12)=36$

$36=36$ is also true so the solution has been verified since both equations render true for that point.

Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

(a) and (b) are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Required

Select the correct options

A clock is divided into two equal parts.

(1) 1 - 6

(2) 7 - 12

When the hour hand is on (1), then the time is "after"

When the hour hand is on (2), then the time is "before"

From the attached clock, we have:

(1) The hour hand on 9

(2) The minute hand 1 unit above 9 i.e. 46 minutes

(1) implies that, the time is before 9 i.e. past 8

(2) implies that the minutes is (60 - 46) before 9 or 46 minutes after 8

In (1) and (2) above, we have two interpretations.

1: (60 - 46) minutes before 9

This gives:

14 minutes before 9

2: 46 minutes past 8

i.e. 8 : 46

Line l is parallel to line e in the figure below.

agasfer [191]

Answer: The correct option are as follows;

(1) The triangles are similar because corresponding sides are congruent

(2) The triangles are similar because alternate interior angles are congruent

(3) In the similar triangles, Angle 3 and Angle 6 are corresponding angles

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the picture attached for details.

The line i and line e has been drawn and marked as parallel lines. Also two transversal lines m and n have been drawn to intersect in the region between the parallel lines to form two triangles (as shown in the picture).

From the information given, where line e intersects with line n we have angle 1, and where line e intersects with line m we have angle 3, and then the third angle is angle 2.

Furthermore, where line l intersects line m we have angle 6, and where line l intersects line n is angle 4. Also in this second triangle, the third angle is 5.

Upon close observation we would see that Angle 6 is equal to Angle 3, since the transversal m has cut across both parallel lines l and e. Similarly Angle 4 is equal to Angle 1 since the transversal n has cut across parallel lines l and e. Having that Angles 3 and 1 are congruent to Angles 6 and 4, we can conclude that the value of the third angle in one triangle is equal to the that of the third in the second triangle, that is, Angle 2 equals Angle 5. Also, if the angles are similar and the lines l and e are parallel, then the lines formed in both triangles are equal.

So our conclusions are;

The interior angle are alternate angles (Angles 3 and 6, Angles 1 and 4), and the third interior angles are Opposite (Angles 2 and 5 {Opposite angles are equal})

USA Today reports that about 25% of all prison parolees become repeat offenders. Alice is a social worker whose job is to counse

pychu [463]

Answer:

a) $P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.75)^0 (1-0.75)^{4-0}=0.0039$

$P(X=1)=(4C1)(0.75)^1 (1-0.75)^{4-1}=0.0469$

$P(X=2)=(4C2)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-2}=0.211$

$P(X=3)=(4C3)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-3}=0.422$

$P(X=4)=(4C4)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-4}=0.316$

b) $E(X) = np = 4*0.75=3$

c) $Sd(X) =\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{4*0.75*(1-0.75)}=0.866$

d) $P(X \geq 3) \geq 0.98$

And the dsitribution that satisfy this is $X\sim Binom(n=9,p=0.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=4, p=1-0.25=0.75)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

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

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

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

Part a

$P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.75)^0 (1-0.75)^{4-0}=0.0039$

$P(X=1)=(4C1)(0.75)^1 (1-0.75)^{4-1}=0.0469$

$P(X=2)=(4C2)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-2}=0.211$

$P(X=3)=(4C3)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-3}=0.422$

$P(X=4)=(4C4)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-4}=0.316$

Part b

The expected value is givn by:

$E(X) = np = 4*0.75=3$

Part c

For the standard deviation we have this:

$Sd(X) =\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{4*0.75*(1-0.75)}=0.866$

Part d

For this case the sample size needs to be higher or equal to 9. Since we need a value such that:

$P(X \geq 3) \geq 0.98$

And the dsitribution that satisfy this is $X\sim Binom(n=9,p=0.75$

We can verify this using the following code:

"=1-BINOM.DIST(3,9,0.75,TRUE)" and we got 0.99 and the condition is satisfied.
