Answer:

(1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To solve using substitution, first isolate one of the variables in one of the equations. However, the y in y = -3x + 5 has already been isolated, so we don't need this step. Instead, take that value of y and substitute it for the y in the other equation, 5x - 4y = -3. So, substitute -3x + 5 for the y in 5x - 4y = -3 and solve:

$5x-4(-3x+5)= -3\\5x+12x-20=-3\\17x-20=-3\\17x = 17\\x = 1$

2) So, x = 1. Now, take that value of x and substitute back into any of the equations to find the y value. (I chose to substitute it into y = -3x + 5, but either choice is fine). So, substitute 1 for the x in y = -3x + 5 and solve:

$y = -3(1)+5\\y = -3+5\\y = 2$

So, y = 2. Thus, by knowing both x and y values, the solution would be (1,2).

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

you would change it to 5x-4(-3x+5)=-3, because you put the info for the first equation into the second equation.

5x-4(-3x+5)=-3

5x+12x-20=-3

17x-20=-3

17x=17

x=1

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Discount = 1600 - 1200 = 400

Percentage discount

$= \frac{400}{1600} \times 100 \\ \\ = \frac{400}{16} \\ \\ = 25\%$

A researcher reports survey results by stating that the standard error of the mean is 25 the population standard deviation is 40

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

a) A sample of 256 was used in this survey.

b) 45.14% probability that the point estimate was within ±15 of the population mean

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved using the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
