Set each piece = to 56, assuming that the 2 variables for which you are not solving are each equal to 0.
7x -2(0)-14(0) = 56
7x=56 (divide each side by 7)
X = ?
(__, 0, 0)
7(0) - 2y - 14 (0) = 56
-2y = 56 (divide each side by -2)
Y= ?
(0, __ , 0)
7(0) - 2(0) - 14z = 56
-14z = 56 (divide each side by -14)
z = ?
(0, 0, __)
You do add the two negatives and get a negative answer but -3 + -5 = -8
60 because all of the sides are equal
Answer:
and 
Step-by-step explanation:
The null hypothesis
states that a population parameter (such as the mean, the standard deviation, and so on) is equal to a hypothesized value. We can write the null hypothesis in the form 
In this context, the investigator's null hypothesis should be that the average total weight is no different than the reported value by the FAA. We can write it in this form
.
The alternative hypothesis
states that a population parameter is smaller, greater, or different than the hypothesized value in the null hypothesis. We can write the alternative hypothesis in one of three forms

The investigator wants to know if the average weight of passengers flying on small planes exceeds the FAA guideline of the average total weight of 185 pounds. He should use
as his alternative hypothesis.
