I won't answer them all for you (don't want to cheat - need to learn something).
But for the first one given:
<span>-2x-9y=-25
-4x-9y=-23
you set up either x or y (which ever one you want to eliminate) so that one of them cancels.
So this one is easy - you just have to multiply an entire row by negative (doesn't matter which one) - so that the y's will be + and -
Since they're both 9 and they're subracting NOW - you can eliminate the y value. Now add/subtract the x's. So it'd be -2 or 2 depending on how you eliminated y. Then add the number outside of the = sign. Now just solve for x. After that plug in whatever you got for x into both of the rows. Then find the y value.
Hopefully this wasn't confusing -- reply if it is and I will try to simplify. I can give you contact if you need help with the rest
Good luck!</span>
Answer:
d
Step-by-step explanation:
5,000 tens = (5,000 x 10)
To find out how many thousands are in it,
just divide:
(5,000 x 10) / (1,000) = (5 x 10) = 50 of them .
Answer:
A store receives a shipment of 5,000 MP3 players. In a previous shipment of 5,000 MP3 players, 300 were defective. A store clerk generates random numbers to simulate a random sample of this shipment. The clerk lets the numbers 1 through 300 represent defective MP3 players, and the numbers 301 through 5,000 represent working MP3 players. The results are given.
948 628 87 4,987 938 468 3,589 298 2,459 2,286
Based on this sample, how many of the MP3 players might the clerk predict would be defective?
The manager would expect
defective players in the shipment.
