Answer:

x = 7

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - y² = 45

(x+y) (x-y) = 45

x + y = 9 (known)

9 x (x-y) = 45

x - y = 5

y = x-5

x + (x - 5) = 9 (substitute)

2x = 14

x = 7

y = 2

Answer:

see explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

You have three pairs of shoes (white, brown, and black), and you have 6 pairs of pants ( brown, blue, grey, white, sand, and black)

We use the Fundamental Counting Principle to find the number of possible pant-shoe combinations:

3 * 6 = 18

then we can find the probability of wearing by random selection brown shoes with either blue or grey pants:

prob (brown shoes & blue pants) + prob (brown shoes & grey pants) =

= 1/18 + 1/18 = 2/18 = 1/9

Answer: 14.2 - 5a

Work: I just did "CLT" of "Combine Like Terms". I did 8 + 6.2 First because 8 is first, then I did 4a - 9a which is -5a, and I combined them, and got the answer. I hope this helps, and stay safe! :)

A shoe manufacturer was investigating the weights of men's soccer cleats. He felt that the weight of these cleats was less than

Answer:

The conclusion is that the researcher was correct

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is $n = 13$

The sample mean is $\= x = 9.63$

The standard deviation is $s = 0.585$

The significance level is $\alpha = 0.05$

The Null Hypothesis is $H_o : \mu = 0$

The Alternative Hypothesis is $H_a = \mu < 10$

The test statistic is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{\= x - \mu }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$

Substituting values

$t = \frac{9.63 - 10 }{\frac{0.585}{\sqrt{13} } }$

$t = - 2.280$

Now the critical value for $\alpha$ is

$t_{\alpha } = 1.645$

This obtained from the critical value table

So comparing the critical value of alpha and the test value we see that the test value is less than the critical value so the Null Hypothesis is rejected

The conclusion is that the researcher was correct
