Cost of bag of soil = x-3 where x is the price of a flower pot
41=3x + 5(x-3)
41=3x + 5x -15
41=8x -15
41+15=8x
56=8x
56÷8=x
$7.00=x
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given



Required
The locus of P

Express as fraction

Cross multiply

Calculate AP and BP using the following distance formula:

So, we have:


Take square of both sides
![4 * [(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2] = (x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%20%2A%20%5B%28x%20%2B1%29%5E2%20%2B%20%28y%20%2B2%29%5E2%5D%20%3D%20%28x%20-%202%29%5E2%20%2B%20%28y%20-%204%29%5E2)
Evaluate all squares
![4 * [x^2 + 2x + 1 + y^2 +4y + 4] = x^2 - 4x + 4 + y^2 - 8y + 16](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%20%2A%20%5Bx%5E2%20%2B%202x%20%2B%201%20%2B%20y%5E2%20%2B4y%20%2B%204%5D%20%3D%20x%5E2%20-%204x%20%2B%204%20%2B%20y%5E2%20-%208y%20%2B%2016)
Collect and evaluate like terms

Answer:
1. Can be Paired or Not Paired
2. Paired
3. Not Paired
Step-by-step explanation:
Two sets of observations are paired if each observation in one set has a special correspondence or connection with exactly one observation in the other data set.
1. Can be Paired or Not paired
Reason -
We might look at testing the difference of means using a two sample t-test. However, we may also try running a paired t-test.
But its used in cases where the observations are usually from the same populations at different times or through different sources etc.
Hence can't conclude that it is paired or not paired.
2. Paired
Reason -
Each record is a price of the same item from different stores.
3. Not paired
Reason -
This is again a case of testing the difference of means of two-samples (2 independent samples precisely) that are not paired.

Answer:
y = 4
x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply first equation by 3
3×(5x+4y)= -14 ➡ 15x + 12y = -42
multiply second equation by -5
-5×(3x+6y)= 6➡ -15x -30y = -30
now add both equations up
15x +12y -15x -30y = -42 -30 (15x will eliminate -15x)
-18y = -72
y = 4 use this to find value of x
3x + 6×4 = 6 ➡ ex = -18 ➡ x = -6
