Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation given in the question has two unknown variables in the form of "x" and "y". The exact value of "x" and "y" cannot be determined as two equations are needed to get to the exact values of "x" and "y". This equation can definitely be used to show the way for determining the values of "x" in terms of "y"and the value of "y" in terms of "x". Now let us check the equation given.
2x - 5y = - 15
2x = 5y - 15
2x = 5(y - 3)
x = [5(y - 3)]/2
Similarly the way the value of y can be determined in terms of "x" can also be shown.
2x - 5y = - 15
-5y = - 2x - 15
-5y = -(2x + 15)
5y = 2x + 15
y = (2x +15)/5
= (2x/5) + (15/5)
= (2x/5) + 3
So the final value of x is [5(y -3)]/2 and the value of y is (2x/5) + 3.
When Peter does this, he is creating two sides of a right-angle triangle. The distance from his house to that point will be the hypotenuse of the triangle thus, to work out the length of the hypotenuse, we have to use Pythagoras Theorem! So:
a² + b² = c²
15² + 15² = c²
225 + 225 = c²
450 = c²
15√2 = c
21.21320344 = c
So, this rounded to the nearest tenth would be:
21.2 meters !
Answer:
0.09 average effect
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the t statistics = 1.54
Sample size (n) = 25
Therefore, variance = t²/n
Variance = 1.54²/25
Variance = 2.372/25
Variance = 0.09
