Answer:
No, the pair is not a solution to the equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the pair to be a solution to the equation, x = -2 must lead to y = 8, o =r vice versa. This leads to being able to solve it two ways either through x or through y.
I'll solve it through x:
y = -2x - 1
with x = -2
y = -2 * - 2 - 1
y = 4 - 1
y = 3
Since y = 3, when x = -2 the pair (-2,8) is not a pair to the solution of the equation.
PS: You can double check by solving through y and you'll find x = -4.5
Answer:
35 is a reasonable amount
Step-by-step explanation:
Since all of the books cost around $7 and there are 5 books
when you multiply 7x5=35
Data set 1 : the mean is (1+2+4+4+5+5+6+7+9+9+9+11) / 12 = 72/12 = 6
the MAD is :
1 - 6 = -5....|-5| = 5
2 - 6 = -4....|-4| = 4
4 - 6 = -2...|-2| = 2
4 - 6 = -2...|-2| = 2
5 - 6 = -1...|-1| = 1
5 - 6 = -1...|-1| = 1
6 - 6 = 0 ...| 0| = 0
7 - 6 = 1....|1| = 1
9 - 6 = 3...|3| = 3
9 - 6 = 3...|3| = 3
9 - 6 = 3...|3| = 3
11 - 6 = 5...|5| = 5
(5+4+2+2+1+1+0+1+3+3+3+5) / 12 = 30/12 = 2.5 <== the MAD
2nd data set :
the mean is (1+3+4+6+6+6+7+9+9+10+10+13) / 12 = 84/12 = 7
mad is :
1 - 7 = -6...| -6| = 6
3 - 7 = -4...|-4| = 4
4 - 7 = -3...|-3| = 3
6 - 7 = -1...|-1| = 1
6 - 7 = -1..|-1| = 1
6 - 7 = -1..|-1| = 1
7 - 7 = 0...|0| = 0
9 - 7 = 2...|2| = 2
9 - 7 = 2...|2| = 2
10 - 7 = 3..|3| = 3
10 - 7 = 3...|3| = 3
13 - 7 = 6...|6| = 6
(6+4+3+1+1+1+0+2+2+3+3+6) / 12 = 32/12 = 2.67 <== the MAD
the difference of the means is 1. This value is less then half of the mean absolute deviation of either data set. <== ur answer
10.7703 to the nearest tenth is 10.8
