Let the two numbers are x and y
Let larger number = x
and smaller number = y
it means
x-y = 0.77
Now it says larger number is increased 5 times
So it now becomes 5x
So second equation becomes
5x -y =77
Now we have to solve these two equations
x-y = 0.77 and 5x-y = 77
multiply first equation by -1 and then add both equations
-x+y = -0.77
Now on adding we get
-x+5x +y -y = 77-0.77
4x = 76.23
Divide both sides by 4
x=19.0575
We get the larger number , now subtract 0.77 from this , we will get the smaller number
y=19.0575-0.77=18.2875
y=18.2875
Hence the larger number = 19.0575
Smaller number = 18.2875
Answer:
-3.8, 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution to a system is where the graph cross each other. If you look to where they intersect to the left of the origin, where x is negative, it appears that they intersect ALMOST at -4, but not quite. So -3.8 is going to have to do since we don't have the equations of either graph to find the exact values of x. To the right of the origin, where x is positive, the graphs cross where x = 3..
Answer:
Option C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sampling bias is a problem during the initial data gathering step of a survey.
When the first step is wrong, then the survey cannot produce non biased results.
The problem occurs when the design of the study is wrong the data collection procedure is wrong.
So, here answer seems C, because the starting point is not selected at random in this survey.
(C) Jean wants to estimate the mean amount of money spent on clothes per week by mall shoppers. She collects data from every 10th person entering a clothing store at the mall.
