zloy xaker [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

550

Step-by-step explanation:

so we know that 17% of everyone who applies (3,240) will be accepted.

0.17*3,240= 550.8

550 students will be accepted

we have to round down as only 17% can be accepted and u cant have 0.8th of a person

hope this helps

If y-3x=9, 7x+y=25, what is the value of x and y?
lianna [129]

\bold{\rm{Given}}\text{ : If y - 3x = 9, 7x + y = 25, what is the value of x and y}?

\bold{\rm{Solution}} \text{: We'll solve this by substitution method}

\dashrightarrow  y - 3x = 9 \\  \\  \dashrightarrow   \boxed{y = 9 + 3x } \qquad .. \sf eq(1)

\text{we got the value of y now getting the value of x}

\looparrowright 7x + y = 25 \\  \\  \looparrowright 7x = 25 - y \\  \\  \looparrowright  \boxed{x =   \frac{25 - y}{7}} \qquad .. \sf eq(2)

\text{Now, putting y = 9 + 3x in eq(2)}

\hookrightarrow  x =  \frac{25 - y}{7}   \\  \\ \hookrightarrow  x =  \frac{25 - 9 + 3x}{7}  \\  \\ \hookrightarrow  7x =  25 - 9 + 3x \\  \\ \hookrightarrow  7x - 3x =  16 \\  \\ \hookrightarrow  4x = 16 \\  \\ \hookrightarrow  x =  \frac{16}{4}  \\  \\ \star \quad  \boxed{ \green{ \frak{ x = 4}}}

\text{Now we know the value of x, for getting y we need to put x in eq(1)}

: \implies y = 9 + 3x \\  \\   : \implies y = 9 + 3(4) \\  \\  : \implies y = 9 + 12  \\  \\    \star \quad  \boxed{\frak{  \green{y = 21}}}

\text{Hence, values of x and y are} \:  \frak{ \green{4}}  \: \text{and} \:  \frak{ \green{21}} \: \text{respectively}.

I need this problem worked out. I already know the answer just not the work.
larisa [96]

Answer

n = 30

Explanation

To solve for n, you have to isolate it by 'getting rid' of the 18, 2, and negative sign.

You 'remove' these numbers in backward PEMDAS.

So to 'remove' the 18, you subtract both sides by 18.

3-18 = -15

-n/2+18-18 = -n/2

So now you are left with -15 = -n/2.

To 'get rid' of the 2, you multiply each side by 2.

-15×2 = -30

-n/2×2 = -n

And now you have -30 = -n.

To 'get rid' of the negative sign, you multiply both sides by -1.

-30×-1 = 30

-n×-1 = n

So you get 30 = n or n = 30.

If you still have questions I'll answer them in the comments (under this question).

Determine whether the following possible responses should be classified as interval, nominal or ordinal data.
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

1. Nominal data 2. Responses here can't be classified as interval or nominal or ordinal data 3.  Responses here can't be classified as interval or nominal or ordinal data  4. nominal

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Heidi's favorite  brand of tenis balls is only a "label" in the set of brands that can be regarded. So, because we are dealing with names or "labels" we should classify responses here as nominal data.

2. Possible values for the number of cars in a parking lot are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4,... Besides we can say that 4 cars is twice than 2 cars, and exist a true zero. We can't say that responses here correspond to interval data, in fact, we can say that responses here correspond to the kind of data called ratio data.

3. You can spend zero hours in your homework, so, there exists an absolute zero, besides, to say that you spend 4 hours in your homework is twice that if you spend 2 hours in your homework is meaningful. We can't classify responses here as interval data or ordinal or nominal. We can classify responses here as ratio data.

4. There are only two different responses here, i.e., You are a US citizen or You are not a US citizen. We are dealing with "labels" again, and in general, we can't say there is a better response or stablish an order.
