Answer:x=4 y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your system by substitution.

2x−1=y+4;3y+1=3x−2

Step: Solve2x−1=y+4for y:

2x−1=y+4

2x−1+−y=y+4+−y(Add -y to both sides)

2x−y−1=4

2x−y−1+−2x=4+−2x(Add -2x to both sides)

−y−1=−2x+4

−y−1+1=−2x+4+1(Add 1 to both sides)

−y=−2x+5

−y

−1

−2x+5

−1

(Divide both sides by -1)

y=2x−5

Step: Substitute2x−5foryin3y+1=3x−2:

3y+1=3x−2

3(2x−5)+1=3x−2

6x−14=3x−2(Simplify both sides of the equation)

6x−14+−3x=3x−2+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)

3x−14=−2

3x−14+14=−2+14(Add 14 to both sides)

3x=12

(Divide both sides by 3)

x=4

Step: Substitute4forxiny=2x−5:

y=2x−5

y=(2)(4)−5

y=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Weights of American adults are normally distributed with a mean of 180 pounds and a standard deviation of 8 pounds. What is the

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

15.87% probability that a randomly selected individual will be between 185 and 190 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 180, \sigma = 8$
