Solve each system of equations using substitution. a=5b+8 a=-10b-7​

Mathematics
1 answer:
lianna [129]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

a = 3, b = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 5b + 8

a = -10b - 7

5b + 8 = -10b - 7

Add 10b from both sides;

15b + 8 = -7

Subtract 8 from both sides;

15b = -15

Divide both sides by 15;

b = -1

Lets substitute b;

a = 5b + 8

a = 5(-1) + 8

a = -5 + 8

a = 3

What is the exact distance from (–1, 4) to (6, –2)? (4 points) units units units units
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

\sqrt{85}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, - 2)

d = \sqrt{(6+1)^2+(-2-4)^2}

  = \sqrt{7^2+(-6)^2}

  = \sqrt{49+36}

  = \sqrt{85} ← exact distance

The manufacturer of a refrigerator system for beer kegs produces refrigerators that are supposed to maintain a true mean tempera
Bond [772]

Answer:

There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean temperature is different from 42 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information, we are being told that:

The manufacturer of a refrigerator system for beer kegs produces refrigerators that are supposed to maintain a true mean temperature, μ, of 42°F

i. e  mean  μ = 42

The owner of the brewery does not agree with the refrigerator manufacturer, and claims he can prove that the true mean temperature is incorrect.

Assuming that a hypothesis test of the claim has been conducted and that the conclusion is to reject the null hypothesis, state the conclusion in nontechnical terms.

From above;

The null and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as:

\mathbf{H_o : \mu  = 42} \\ \\ \mathbf {H_1 : \mu \neq 42}

Here , the hypothesis test of the claim is the alternative hypothesis.

The conclusion based on the decision rule:  is to reject the null hypothesis

∴

The conclusion in non technical terms is that :

There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean temperature is different from 42 deg
