Answer:

x= 8, y= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

You can subtract one equation by another to eliminate x

(x-y)-(x+7y)=12-(-20)

-8y = 32

y= -4

Substitute y =  -4 in the first equation:

x-(-4) = 12

x =8

Answer:

x=16, y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

-1(x-y=12)

x+7y=-20

-x+y=-12

x+7y=-20

8y=-32

y=-4

x-4=12

x=16

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

  $21,623.70

Step-by-step explanation:

A suitable financial calculator can compute the beginning balance and the remaining balance for you. The attachments show a TI-Nspire calculator's TVM solver app being used to answer this question.

The first attachment shows the computation of the loan value. It is about $37,624.54.

The second attachment shows the computation of the remaining balance after 16 of the 32 semi-annual payments have been made.

The loan balance 8 years from the end of the loan will be about $21,623.70.

A factory worker productivity is normally distributed. one worker produces an average of 75 units per day with a standard deviat
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Let Xi be the random variable representing the number of units the first worker produces in day i.
Define X = X1 + X2 + X3 + X4 + X5 as the random variable representing the number of units the
first worker produces during the entire week. It is easy to prove that X is normally distributed with mean µx = 5·75 = 375 and standard deviation σx = 20√5.
Similarly, define random variables Y1, Y2,...,Y5 representing the number of units produces by
the second worker during each of the five days and define Y = Y1 + Y2 + Y3 + Y4 + Y5. Again, Y is normally distributed with mean µy = 5·65 = 325 and standard deviation σy = 25√5. Of course, we assume that X and Y are independent. The problem asks for P(X > Y ) or in other words for P(X −Y > 0). It is a quite surprising fact that the random variable U = X−Y , the difference between X and Y , is also normally distributed with mean µU = µx−µy = 375−325 = 50 and standard deviation σU, where σ2 U = σ2 x+σ2 y = 400·5+625·5 = 1025·5 = 5125. It follows that σU = √5125. A reference to the above fact can be found online at http://mathworld.wolfram.com/NormalDifferenceDistribution.html.
Now everything reduces to finding P(U > 0) P(U > 0) = P(U −50 √5125 > − 50 √5125)≈ P(Z > −0.69843) ≈ 0.757546   .
