<span>1/2x+3y/4=5 => (1/2)x + (3/4)y = 5
1/5x+3y/2=2 => (1/5)x + (3/2)y = 2
Eliminate the fractional coefficients: Mult. the first equation by 4 and mult. the second equation by 10:
2x + 15y = 20
</span><span>Multiply the 1st equation by -1:

2x + 15y = 20
-------------------
12y = 0, so y = 0. Then the first equation becomes 2x + 3(0) = 20, or
x=10.
Solution is (10,0).
Answer:
The point estimate for the proportion of women with BRCA1 mutation is 0.168
Step-by-step explanation:
The point estimate for the proportion of women with BRCA1 mutation is the number of women with this mutation divided by the size of the sample.
Of the 173, they found that 29 had BRCA1 mutations.
29/173 = 0.168
The point estimate for the proportion of women with BRCA1 mutation is 0.168
The line passing through it is y=7/4x-11/<span>4</span>
Answer:
sorry i don't know that
Step-by-step explanation:
Rule: second differences are 2.
Selection C is appropriate.
_____
First differences are the sequence of differences of the given numbers:
.. 3 -8 = -5
.. 0 -3 = -3
.. -1 -0 = -1
.. 0 -(-1) = 1
Second differences are the sequence of differences of these:
.. -3 -(-5) = 2
.. -1 -(-3) = 2
.. 1 -(-1) = 2
All of these are 2, so the sequence can be described by a *second* order polynomial (because *second* differences are a non-zero constant).
