Solve the system by substitution 5x+y=-10. 4x-7y=-8

Mathematics
1 answer:
storchak [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

x = -2 and y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + y = -10

4x - 7y = -8

Rearrange the first equation to equal y.

5x + y = -10

y = -10 - 5x

Replace y in the second equation with the first equation.

4x - 7y = -8

4x - 7(-10 - 5x) = -8

4x - (-70 -35x) = -8

4x + 70 + 35x = -8

Rearrange the equation to find x.

4x + 35x = -8 - 70

39x = -78

x = -2

Now that you know x, use the rearranged first equation to find y.

y = -10 - 5x

y = -10 - 5(-2)

y = -10 + 10

y = 0

Using the Formula n=1/(ME)2 to Determine Sample Size When we want confidence and use the conservative estimate of , we can use t
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

The sample size needed is 40000.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample size needed is:

n = \frac{1}{M^{2}}

Use this formula to determine the sample size needed for a margin of error of 0.005

This is n when M = 0.005. So

n = \frac{1}{M^{2}}

n = \frac{1}{0.005^{2}}

n = 40000

The sample size needed is 40000.

Sedaia [141]

Answer:  2x + 40 = 150

Step-by-step explanation:

Jane has 150 feet of fencing.  40 feet will go for the portion opposite the house,  The remaining fencing will go for the two sides of equal length x.  That makes 2x for both.  So:

<u>2x + 40 = 150</u>

[x = 55 feet]

The Intelligence Quotient (IQ) test scores for adults are normally distributed with a population mean of 100 and a population st
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The probability is 0.6796

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Population Mean - 100

Population Standard Deviation - 25

As we know

z = x-μ/σ, where:

z is the standard score

x is the raw score  

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

Z value for mean of sample = 95

z1 = -100+95/25 = -5/25 = -0.2

P value for Z = -0.2 is 0.2912

Z2 = 100-105/25 = 0.2

P(z > 0.2 = 1 - P(z ≤ 0.2) = 1 - 0.0294 = 0.9706

P(-0.2 < z < 0.2) = 0.9706 - 0.2912= 0.6796

The probability is 0.6796
