The answers are choice A) and choice C). They effectively say the same thing but in a slightly different way. Choice A is more algebraic while choice C is more visual.
Answer:
2x+3+7x=-24 (combine like terms)
9x+3=-24
9x=-27
x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Among the choices, the statement which describes a skewed histogram showing a distribution of the weights of students in a class is:
<span>"The nature of the skew can be verified by the position of the mean with respect to the mode."
The histogram is skewed to the right if the mean is less than the mode and the histogram is skewed to the left if the mean is more than the mode. </span><span />
Answer:
x = -6
y = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Using substitution method.
2x + y = -4 -----------(I)
y = - 4 - 2x -----------(II)
5x + 3y = -6 -------------------(III)
Substitute y = -4 -2x in equation (III)
5x + 3(-4-2x) = - 6
5x - 12 - 6x = -6
5x - 6x - 12 = -6
Combine like terms
-x - 12 = -6 {Add 12 to both sides}
-x = -6 + 12
-x = 6 {Multiply by (-1)}
x = -6
Substitute x = -6 in equation (II)
y = - 4 - 2*(-6)
= -4 + 12
y = 8
