Answer:

X= 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply first equation by -2 and second equation by 1

-2(4x+7y=-14)

1(8x+5y= 8)

= -8x -14y =28

8x+5y=8

Add these equations to eliminate X:

-9y=36

-9y/-9 = 36/-9

y=- 4

Plug in Y to find X

4x + 7y = -14

4x+7(-4) = -14

4x-28+28= -14+28

4x= 14

X= 7/2

Help pleaseeeeeeeeee

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  47 -6√10

Step-by-step explanation:

As you know, the area of a square is the square of the side length. It can be helpful here to make use of the form for the square of a binomial.

  (a -b)² = a² - 2ab + b²

  (√2 -3√5)² = (√2)² - 2(√2)(3√5) + (3√5)²

  = 2 - 6√10 + 3²(5)

  = 47 -6√10

__

<em>Check</em>

  √2-3√5 ≈ -5.29399 . . . . . . . . note that a negative value for side length makes no sense, so this isn't about geometry, it's about binomials and radicals

  (√2-3√5)² ≈ 28.02633

  47 -6√10 ≈ 28.02633

Lengths of full-term babies in the US are Normally distributed with a mean length of 20.5 inches and a standard deviation of 0.9
mash [69]

Answer:

66.48% of full-term babies are between 19 and 21 inches long at birth

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean length of 20.5 inches and a standard deviation of 0.90 inches.

This means that \mu = 20.5, \sigma = 0.9

What percentage of full-term babies are between 19 and 21 inches long at birth?

The proportion is the p-value of Z when X = 21 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 19. Then

X = 21

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

Z = \frac{21 - 20.5}{0.9}

Z = 0.56

Z = 0.56 has a p-value of 0.7123

X = 19

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

Z = \frac{19 - 20.5}{0.9}

Z = -1.67

Z = -1.67 has a p-value of 0.0475

0.7123 - 0.0475 = 0.6648

0.6648*100% = 66.48%

66.48% of full-term babies are between 19 and 21 inches long at birth
