Answer:

(1, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 3y = -8

3x + y = 6

Isolate a variable in one of the equations:

y = 6 - 3x

Substitute the value of y into the other equation:

x - 3(6 - 3x) = -8

Use distributive property:

x - 18 + 9x = -8

Combine like terms:

10x - 18 = -8

Isolate the variable:

10x = 10

x = 1

Substitute the value of x into any equation:

3(1) + y = 6

3 + y = 6

Isolate the variable:

y = 3

A) The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the lengths of its four sides. Write an expression for the perimeter of the rectan
goblinko [34]

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of this triangle is 3x+1 and the width is x.

The perimeter P is:

P= 2(3x+1)+2*x

P= 6x+2+2x

P= 8x+2

Let's evaluate it when x=1/2

●1/2 =0.5

P= 8*0.5+2 =4+2= 6 ft

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

The area A is:

A = (3x+1)*x

A= 3x^2 +x

Let's evaluate it when x=0.5 feet

A= 3*0.5^2 +0.5

A= 3*0.25+0.5

A= 0.75 +0.5

A= 1.25 ft^2

Assume the random variable X is normally distributed with mean mu equals 50 and standard deviation sigma equals 7. Compute the p
drek231 [11]

Answer:

The probability that <em>X</em> is less than 42 is 0.1271.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X </em>follows a Normal distribution.

The mean and standard deviation are:

E (X) = <em>μ</em> = 50.

SD (X) = <em>σ</em> = 7.

A normal distribution is continuous probability distribution.

The Normal probability distribution with mean µ and standard deviation σ is given by,

f_{X}(\mu, \sigma)=\frac{1}{\sigma\sqrt{2\pi}}e^{-(x-\mu)^{2}/2\sigma^{2}};\ -\infty

To compute the probability of a Normal random variable we first standardize the raw score.

The raw scores are standardized using the formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

These standardized scores are known as <em>z</em>-scores and they follow normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1.

Compute the probability of (X < 42) as follows:

P(X

*Use a <em>z</em>-table for the probability.

Thus, the probability that <em>X</em> is less than 42 is 0.1271.

The normal curve is shown below.

Help me I have no idea how to do 18
sleet_krkn [62]

First, subtract px2 from both sides.

Now you have:

x3 - px2 = (1 - p) x1

Next, divide both sides by (1 - p)

So now you have

x3 - px2/(1 - p) = x1

...as your final answer


*You can decide if you want to leave the parenthesis in your final answer, I left them there so it could be visible where I put them. :)
