Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-40x + 8y = -24

 3x  -  8y = 24

-37x = 0

x = 0

0 + y = -3

y = -3

(0, -3)

Answer:

I will show you how to solve for x and y.

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + y = -3

3x - 8y = 24

You can isolate y in the first equation, and substitute that into the second equation.

so to isolate y in -5x + y = -3, you would add 5x to both sides

this gives you y = 5x - 3

Then substitute this y into the equation below.

3x - 8(5x-3) = 24    <u> (this way, the y variable disappears)</u>

then distribute the 8 into the bracket

3x - 40x + 24 = 24

combine the variables

-37x + 24 = 24

isolate x by moving the constants to one side

-37x = 0

so x = 0

I am not sure if you want the rest, but here it is.

substitute x = 0 into one of the equations.

-5x + y = -3

-5(0) + y = -3

y = -3

What proportion of a normal distribution corresponds to z scores greater than 1.04?
Tom [10]
We would need to look over the z table to find the area under the standard normal distribution curve to the left of z = 1.04. Then we'll subtract it from 1 to get the proportion of a normal distribution corresponding to z scores greater than 1.04.
By looking at the z table, we can see that the area to the left of z = 1.04 is 0.8508. So the proportion of a normal distribution to the right of z = 1.04 is 1 – 0.8508 =  0.1492.

The answer is 0.1492.
