Answer:

x = 2, y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 5y = 19
-7x - 2y = -16

Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. Add the terms from top to bottom. 7x and -7x cancel out.

0 + 3y = 3

Divide both sides by 3.

y = 1

Substitute 1 for y into the first equation.

7x + 5(1) = 19

7x + 5 = 19

Subtract 5 from both sides.

7x = 14

Divide both sides by 7.

x = 2

The life of light bulbs is distributed normally. The variance of the lifetime is 900 and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 520 hour

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

0.969

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean lifetime (m) = 520 hours

Variance = 900

Hence, standard deviation (s) = √900 = 30

Probability that bulb will last for at most 576 hours

X ≤ 576

Obtain the standardized score :

Using the relation :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

Zscore = (576 - 520) / 30

Zscore = 56 / 30

Zscore = 1.867

P(Z ≤ 1.867) : using the z probability calculator ;

P(Z ≤ 1.867) = 0.96905

Hence, P(Z ≤ 1.867) = 0.969

Law of sines: How many distinct triangles can be formed for which m∠A = 75°, a = 2, and b = 3?

butalik [34]

According to the law of sines:

$\frac{a}{sin(A)} = \frac{b}{sin(B)}$

Using the given values, we can find the angle B and find the number of possible triangles that can be formed.

$\frac{2}{sin(75)}= \frac{3}{sin(B)} \\ \\ 
sin(B)=3* \frac{sin75}{2} \\ \\ 
sin(B)=1.45 \\ \\ 
B=sin^{-1} (1.45)$

The range of sin is from -1 to 1. The above expression does not yield any possible value of B, as sin of no angle can be equal to 1.45.

Therefore, we can conclude that no triangle exists with the given conditions.

Find the excluded value of the function Y= - 10/6x-5. The excluded value is x =??

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The excluded value is x = 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the excluded value

The excluded value is simply the value of x that will make the denominator of the fraction equals zero

We have this as;

6x -5 = 0

6x = 5

x = 5/6
