Answer:

y=16x

Step-by-step explanation:

So, you are given the equation as if y=total distance the earth travels in x minutes. If you are given that you travel 80 miles in 5 minutes, you can plug  these value into the variables they are representing and solve for the constant.

Visual:

y=xk          y=miles        x=minutes         k=constant

Plug in your values and you get:

80=5k

Now, you solve for k by diving 5 on both sides, which leaves you with k=16.

Now you plug your value for k into the original equation, leaving you with y=16x

The average age at which adolescent girls reach their adult height is 16 years. Suppose you have a sample of 29 adolescent girls
kumpel [21]

Answer:

standard error = 1.63

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the standard error we need to know the standard deviation (σ) and the sample size (n) (see the attached formula).

To obtain the standard deviation we use the given sample variance of 77.4 years:

σ²= variance

Therefore:

σ = √77.4 = 8.8

Now we can calcuate the estimated standard error:

standard error = σ /√n = 8.8/√29 = 1.63

The standard error gives us an estimation about how far the mean of the sample is from the mean of the entire population, and in this case is 1.63.

Solve the simultaneous equation:<br> 5 x + 2 y = 25 <br> 5 x − y = 10
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

(x, y) = (3, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2y=25\\5x-y=10

Solving by elimination here again, there are 2 good options available. Either multiply the whole bottom equation by -1 to cancel the x, or by 2 to cancel the y. I'll do the latter:

5x+2y=25\\\\2(5x-y=10)\\10x-2y=20

Add from top to bottom:

\rightarrow (5x+10x)+(2y-2y)=25+20\\\rightarrow 15x=45\\\rightarrow x=3

Now, with the value of x, solve for y in either of the equations. I'll choose the second one here:

\rightarrow 5x-y=10\\\rightarrow 5(3)-y=10\\\rightarrow 15-y=10\\\rightarrow -y=-5\\\rightarrow y=5

(x, y) = (3, 5)
