Answer:

b=3, y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Label the 2 equations:

2b +6y= 42 -----(1)

2b +4y= 30 -----(2)

(1) -(2):

(2b +6y) -(2b +4y)= 42 -30

2b +6y -2b -4y= 12

2y= 12

y= 12 ÷2 (÷2 on both sides)

y= 6

Susbt. y=6 into (2):

2b +4(6)= 30

2b +24=30

2b= 30 -24 (-24 on both sides)

2b= 6

b= 6 ÷2

b= 3

Answer:

y = 6, b = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both equations have 2b in them, subtracting them gets you a quick result because the 2b-2b cancels out!

2b + 6y = 42

2b + 4y = 30

------------------ -

2y = 12

y = 6

Then 2b = 42 - 36 = 6, so b = 6/2 = 3

Find the p-value in a test of the claim that the mean College Algebra final exam score of engineering majors equal to 88, give

Orlov [11]

Answer: 0.9332.

Step-by-step explanation:

Claim : College Algebra final exam score of engineering majors equal to 88.

Given that : The test statistic is z equals to 1.50.

To find the p-value (Probability value), we use standard normal distribution table, and search the p-value corresponds to the z-score.

In a Standard Normal Distribution Table below, the p-value corresponds z equals 1.5 is 0.9332.

Hence, the p-value is 0.9332.

Find the equation of the linear function h that has h(12)=-7 and that is perpendicular to q(a)=1/2a+38.. I don’t understand how

Effectus [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

q(a) = ½a + 38

The slope of q is ½. So the perpendicular slope is -1/½ = -2.

Write h(x) in point-slope form:

h − (-7) = -2 (x − 12)

h + 7 = -2 (x − 12)

Simplify to get slope-intercept form.

h + 7 = -2x + 24

h = -2x + 17
