Answer:

5 and 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Make equations:

x+y = 16

3x-4 = y

Substitute 3x-4 as y in x+y = 16

You get x + 3x - 4 = 16

Simplify into 4x - 4 = 16

Add 4 on both sides

you get 4x = 20

Divide each side by 4,

You get x = 5. Plug 5 back into x+y = 16

Subtract 5 from both sides, and you get y = 11

Find the percent of the area under the density curve where x is more than 3. <br>​
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

The percent of the area under the density curve where x is more that 3 is 25 %.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the density curve is a linear function, the area under the curve can be calculated by the geometric formula for a triangle, defined by the following expression:

A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (x_{f} - x_{o})\cdot  (y_{f}-y_{o}) (1)

Where:

A - Area, in square units.

x_{f} - x_{o} - Base of the triangle, in units.

y_{f} - y_{o} - Height of the triangle, in units.

The percent of the area is the ratio of triangle areas under the density curve multiplied by 100 per cent, that is:

x = \frac{\frac{1}{2}\cdot (5-3)\cdot (0.25) }{\frac{1}{2}\cdot (5-1)\cdot (0.5) }\times 100\,\%

x = 25\,\%

The percent of the area under the density curve where x is more that 3 is 25 %.

These figures are similar. The area of one is given. Find the area of the other. PLZ HELP
stellarik [79]

Answer:

12 in squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the side on the bigger figure is 6 and the smaller figure‘s side is 3, that means the smaller figure is half the size of the big figure.

So.. 24 divided by 2 is 12
