Answer:
Solution: (-4, 2), x= -4 and y =2
Step-by-step explanation:
-8x - y = 30
-2y = x
Substitute for x
-8*(-2y) - y = 30
16y - y = 30
15y = 30
y = 30/15 = 2
Then x = -2y = -2*(2) = -4
Solution: (-4, 2), x= -4 and y =2
Answer: 4 years
Step-by-step explanation:
A(0) has to be amount at start. Assume that's 5mg
Then A(t) = 5×(0.5)^(0.25t) = 5×2^(-t/4),
(also known as 5 exp(-λ t) with λ = ln(2)/4, incidentally).
We need to such that A(t) = 2.5mg, or 2^(-t/4) is 1/2, which happens when -t/4 is -1, or t is 4.
Using the normal distribution, it is found that 7.64% of of sample means are greater than 8.8 hours.
<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>
The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean
and standard deviation
is given by:

- The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
- Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.
- By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation
.
The parameters are given as follows:

The proportion of sample means greater than 8.8 hours is <u>one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 8.8</u>, hence:

By the Central Limit Theorem


Z = 1.43
Z = 1.43 has a p-value of 0.9236.
1 - 0.9236 = 0.0764.
7.64% of of sample means are greater than 8.8 hours.
