12x−5y=−20 y=x+4 x=x=x, equals y=y=y, equals

Mathematics
1 answer:
aksik [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The solution is (0, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Please pay attention to the first two equations and drop the last two:

12x−5y=−20 y=x+4 x=x=x, equals y=y=y   should ideally be:

12x−5y=−20

y=x+4

Let's find x.  Substitute x + 4 for y in the first equation, obtaining:

12x - 5(x + 4) = -20

Carrying out the indicated multiplication, we get:

12x - 5x - 20 = -20, or 7x = 0

If x = 0 then y must be 0 + 4, or 4.  

The solution is (0, 4)

What is the general form of the equation of the line shown?<br><br><br> Y-2=0<br> y+2=0<br> X-2 = 0
Tatiana [17]

Answer:Option A is correct.

y-2=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is correct.

General form of the equation of the line:  y-2 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of the equation is given by:

y = mx +b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y-intercepts of the line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y-axis(i.e x= 0)

From the given figure;

we can see that the line crosses the y-axis at y =2  and also here the slope is , m= 0

therefore, by definition of y-intercepts

y-intercept (b) = 2

Therefore, the equation of line as shoen in figure is:

y = (0)x + 2

or

y = 2

y-2 = 0

Therefore, the general form of the equation line as shown in the figure is:

y-2 =0

The number of major earthquakes in a year is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 20.8 and a standard deviation of
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

a) 51.60% probability that in a given year there will be less than 21 earthquakes.

b) 49.35% probability that in a given year there will be between 18 and 23 earthquakes.

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 problem, we have that:

\mu = 20.8, \sigma = 4.5

a) Find the probability that in a given year there will be less than 21 earthquakes.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 21. So

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

Z = \frac{21 - 20.8}{4.5}

Z = 0.04

Z = 0.04 has a pvalue of 0.5160.

So there is a 51.60% probability that in a given year there will be less than 21 earthquakes.

b) Find the probability that in a given year there will be between 18 and 23 earthquakes.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 23 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 18. So:

X = 23

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

Z = \frac{23 - 20.8}{4.5}

Z = 0.71

Z = 0.71 has a pvalue of 0.7611

X = 18

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

Z = \frac{18 - 20.8}{4.5}

Z = -0.62

Z = -0.62 has a pvalue of 0.2676

So there is a 0.7611 - 0.2676 = 0.4935 = 49.35% probability that in a given year there will be between 18 and 23 earthquakes.

Twice a number (z) added to 21 is equal to 9 times the number added to 7. What is the number?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The number is  2

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice a number (z) = 2*z = 2z

Twice a number (z) added to 21  = 2z + 21

9 times the number added to 7 = 9z + 7

9z + 7 = 2z + 21

Subtract 2z form both sides

9z - 2z + 7 = 21

       7z + 7 = 21

Subtract 7 from both sides

7z = 21 - 7

 7z = 14

Divide both sides by 7

z = 14/7

z = 2

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-4,8) and has a slope of -1/4
iragen [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When a slope of a line and a point passing through it is given then we use slope - one point form to determine the equation of the line.

It is given by:

                      $ (y - y_1) = m (x - x_1) $

where $m$ is the slope of the line and

           $ (x_1, y_1) $ is the point passing through it.

Here, $ m = \frac{-1}{4} $ and $ (x_1,y_1) = (-4,8) $

Substituting in the equation:

$ y - 8 = \frac{-1}{4} (x + 4) $

$ \implies 4y - 32 = -x - 4 $

$ \implies x + 4y - 28 = 0 $
