I answered the question 3x-y=5 but is there a different way to answer this?

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Yes (technically),  there is a different way to answer the equation 3x - y = 5. But, the first part of how you described it is a bit off.

Here is how you would explain it:

What you would do is Add y to both sides, then subtract 5 from both sides.

3x = y + 5

3x - 5 = y (aka y  = 3x - 5)

The other way to solve:

3x - y = 5

Subtract 3x from both sides.

-y = -3x + 5

Now divide both sides by -1.

-1(-y) = -1(-3x + 5)

y = 3x - 5

If you want to solve for x, you would:

Add y to both sides of the equation.

3x = 5 + y

Then divide each side by 3.

x = \frac{1}{3}y + \frac{5}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

I agree with what you did. You could also add y on both sides and get 3x = y + 5 and then divided by three to get...

x = 5 + y /3

(the 5 and y are being divided by 3)

But that's just complicated, it works, but it's complicated. What you did is correct and what I gave you is the value of x, but I'm 100 percent sure yours is correct.

Hope this helps

Juan wants to change the shape of his vegetable garden from a square to a rectangle, but keep the same area so he can grow the s
irina [24]

The value of x that makes sense in this context is; 32.

The dimensions of the new garden is; 64 by 16.

<h3>How to find the real dimensions of the rectangle?</h3>

The expression that represents the problem statement is;

x² = (2x)(x – 16)

Expanding the bracket gives us;

x² = 2x² – 32x

x² - 32x = 0

x(x - 32) = 0

Thus; x = 0 or x = 32

x can't be 0 and as such the value of x is 32.

Thus;

The length of the new garden is; l = 2x = 64.

The width of the new garden is; w = x - 16 = 32 - 16 = 16

The dimensions of the new garden are therefore; 64 by 16

What point would A' be after a dilation with a scale factor of 2 centered at (-7,-2)?​
musickatia [10]

Answer:

(-14,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the pre-image A=(-7,-2)

If A is dilated with a scale factor of 2

Then the image of A,

A' = (-7,-2) X 2

We multiply each coordinate point by 2

=(-7*2,-2*2)=(-14,-4)

Therefore, the point A' would be: (-14,-4)

4. According to statistics reported on IN-CORP a surprising number of motor vehicles are not covered by insurance. Sample result
son4ous [18]

Answer:

a) 0.23

b) The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.1717, 0.2883).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

Point estimate

The point estimate is:

\pi = \frac{46}{200} = 0.23

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.23 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.23*0.77}{200}} = 0.1717

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.23 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.23*0.77}{200}} = 0.2883

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.1717, 0.2883).
