Answer:

A.(1,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Step: Substitute

−2 /3 y + 7 /3

4x−12y=−20:

4x−12y=−20

4( −2 /3 y + 7 /3 )−12y=−20

-44/3y + 28 /3 =−20(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−44 /3 y + 28 /3 + −28 /3 =−20+ −28 /3

(Add (-28)/3 to both sides)

−44 /3 y= −88 /3

−44 /3 y

−44 /3 = −88 /3 −44 /3

(Divide both sides by (-44)/3)

y=2

Step: Substitute2foryinx=

−2 /3 y+ 7 /3 :

x= −2 /3 y+ 7 /3

x= −2 /3 (2)+ 7 /3

x=1(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=1 and y=2

Examine the diagram.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

$m\angle 1 =60.75^\circ \\m\angle 2 =119.25^\circ$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram:

$m\angle 1 =60.75^\circ $(Corresponding Angles)\\$

Now Angle 1 and Angle 2 are on a straight line, therefore:

$m\angle 1 +m\angle 2 =180^\circ $(Linear Postulate)\\Since m\angle 1=60.75^\circ\\60.75^\circ +m\angle 2 =180^\circ\\m\angle 2=180^\circ-60.75^\circ\\m\angle 2 =119.25^\circ$

Researchers report that on average freshman who live on campus gain 15 pounds during their first year in college. You survey 10

neonofarm [45]

Answer: 1.460

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Researchers report that on average freshman who live on campus gain 15 pounds during their first year in college.

Let $\mu$ represents the population mean .

Then, the set of hypothesis will be:-

$H_0: \mu=15$

$H_a:\mu\neq15$

We assume that this is normal distribution.

Sample size : n = 10, which is a small sample (n<30) ,s o we use t-test.

Sample mean : $\overliene{x}=16.2\ lbs$

Standard deviation : $\sigma=2.6$

The test statistic for population mean for small sample is given by :-

$t=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$t=\dfrac{16.2-15}{\dfrac{2.6}{\sqrt{10}}}=1.45951276623\approx1.460$

Hence , the value of test statistic = 1.460

F(x) = 1/(5x-6)Find the derivative of this function

siniylev [52]

Given

$f(x)=\frac{1}{5x-6}$

To find the derivative of the give function,we apply below exponent rule first:

$\frac{1}{a}=a^{-1}$

So,

Next, we apply the chain rule:

So,

We substitute back u=(5x-6):

Simplify:

Therefore, the answer is:

$=-\frac{5}{(5x-6)^2}$
