y = -2x + 9
y = 4x - 3
y is isolated in both equations, thus you may set the expressions (-2x + 9) and (4x - 3) equal to each other and solve for x.
-2x + 9 = 4x - 3
Subtract 9 from both sides.
-2x + 9 - 9 = 4x - 3 - 9
-2x = 4x - 12
Subtract 4x from both sides.
-2x - 4x = 4x - 12 - 4x
-6x = -12
Divide both sides by -6.
-6x/-6 = -12/-6
x = 2
Substitute 2 for x into one of the original equations to find y.
y = 4x - 3 (given)
y = 4(2) - 3 (substitute)
y = 8 - 3 (multiply)
y = 5 (subtract)
Plug x- and y-values into original equations to check work.
5 = -2(2) + 9
5 = - 4 + 9
5 = 5
5 = 4(2) - 3
5 = 8 - 3
5 = 5
Answer:
x = 2 and y = 5; (2, 5).

Answer:
(a) There are outliers
(b)
and 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given







Solving (a): Check for outliers
This is calculated using:
--- lower bound of outlier
--- upper bound of outlier
Where

So, we have:


The lower bound of outlier becomes




The upper bound of outlier becomes




So, we have:
--- the range without outlier
Given that:
--- This represents the lowest data
--- This represents the highest data
-24 and 64 are out of range of
.
Hence, there are outliers
Solving (b): The outliers
The outliers are data less than the lower bound (i.e. less than -14) or greater than the upper bound (i.e. 62)
So, the outliers are:
and 
Answer:
-3/5
