Answer:

(4, 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

3x + y = 14 → (1)

7x - 4y = 20 → (2)

Rearrange (1) making y the subject by subtracting 3x from both sides

y = 14 - 3x → (3)

Substitute y = 14 - 3x into (2)

7x - 4(14 - 3x) = 20 ← distribute parenthesis and simplify left side

7x - 56 + 12x = 20

19x - 56 = 20 ( add 56 to both sides )

19x = 76 ( divide both sides by 19 )

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 into (3) for corresponding value of y

y = 14 - 3(4) = 14 - 12 = 2

solution is (4, 2 )

Answer:

3x + y = 14 \\ y = 14 - 3x \\ substitute  \: y \: into \: equation \: 2\\  7x - 4(14 - 3x) = 20 \\ 7x - 56 + 12x = 20 \\ 19x = 76 \\ x =  \frac{76}{19}   =4 \\ y = 14 - 3( 4 )  = 2 \\

The initial population of a town is 2600, and he grows with the doubling time of 10 years. What will the population be in 12 yea
ira [324]
I think it would be 5,720, because if you figure every year the population grows 260, then 2600x2 would be doubled then add the 2 years missing so add 260+260. It would equal 5,720.

Quick Start Company makes a 12-volt car batteries. After many years of product testing, the company knows the average life of a
Ghella [55]

Answer:

The company will expect to replace 13.03% of batteries.

The company should guarantee the batteries for 35 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 45, \sigma = 8

If Quick start guarantees a full refund on any battery that fails within the 36 month period after purchase, what percentage of its batteries will the company expect to replace?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 36. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{36 - 45}{8}

Z = -1.125

Z = -1.125 has a pvalue of 0.1303.

The company will expect to replace 13.03% of batteries.

If quick Start does not want to make refunds for more than 10% ofits batteries under the full refund guarantee policy, for how longshould the company guarantee the batteries

They should guarantee to the 10th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1. So it is X when Z = -1.28.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-1.28 = \frac{X - 45}{8}

X - 45 = -1.28*8

X = 34.76

Rounding to the nearest month

The company should guarantee the batteries for 35 months.
