Answer:

6 + 2 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

$x + 2y = 10 \\ + \\ x - 2y = 2 \\ = \\ 2x = 12 \\ x = 6 \\ 6 + 2y = 10 \\ 2y = 4 \\ y = 2 \\ x + y = 6 + 2 = 8$

Answer:

The sum of x and y is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2y=10

x-2y=2

------------

2x = 12, so x = 6. Substituting 6 for x in the 2nd equation, we get:

6 - 2y = 2, or

4 = 2y, or y = 2. The solution is therefore (6, 2).

The sum of x and y is 6 + 2 = 8 (answer)

The sum of three numbers is 21. Three times the smallest is 3 less than the largest, while the sum of the largest and smallest i

Lynna [10]

3, 6, 12
I guessed and checked. So if 3 is the smallest number, I would, multiply it by 3, which is 9. 9 is 3 less than the largest number which would be 12. 12 + 3 is 15. To find the third number, subtract 21 and 15 which is 6

Anna is writing a computer game program. She needs to “move” a square 3 units to the left and 2 down by applying a translation r

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

(-3,-2), (-3,2) , (1,2) and (1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Give the translation rule as; 3 units to the left and 2 units down, it means (-3,-2)

The given coordinates of the square are (0,0) and (4,4). You can plot the coordinates on a graph tool and determine the position of the other vertices

of the square as (0,4) and (4,0)

Applying the translation to each point

(0,0)⇒(-3,-2) = (-3,-2)

(0,4)⇒(-3,-2) = (-3,2)

(4,4)⇒ (-3,-2) = (1,2)

(4,0)⇒(-3,-2)= (1,-2)

The image of the vertices after transformation will be

(-3,-2), (-3,2) , (1,2) and (1,-2)

<h3>What is the margin of error?</h3>

Your results will deviate from the actual population value by how many percentage points, as indicated by the margin of error.

We have the following info:

ME = 50 margins of error desired

$\sigma$ = 1000 the standard deviation for this case

The margin of error is given by this formula:

(a) $ME=Z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

And on this case, we have that ME =50 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

(b) $n =(\dfrac{Z_{a\2}\sigma}{ME})^2$

The critical value for the 99% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. The significance is $\alpha$ = 0.01. And for this case would be $Z_{\alpha / 2}$ = 2.58, replacing into formula (b) we got:
