Answer:

(7,-6)

x = 7, y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) 6x - 5y = 72

(2) 2x + 6y = -22

multiply equation (2) by -3

-3 (2x + 6y = -22)

-6x - 18y = 66

add equation (1) and the new equation:

6x + -6x = 0

-5y + -18y = -23y

72 + 66 = 138

---> -23y = 138

divide both sides by -23

y = -6

plug in y = -6 into equation (2):

2x + 6(-6) = -22

2x - 36 = -22

2x = 14

x = 7

Suppose that the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways are normally distributed with a mean of miles/hour. The highwa

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

the standard deviation of the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways is 6.0 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the standard deviation of the speeds of cars is shown below;

The z score for the top 1% is 2.326

So,

= (75 - 61) ÷ standard deviation = 2.326

Standard deviation is

= 14 ÷ 2.326

= 6.0 miles per hour

Hence, the standard deviation of the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways is 6.0 miles per hour

if x is the first, or smallest, of three consecutive integers, express the sum of the integer and the third integer as an algebr

Scrat [10]

Consecutive numbers differ by one. So, if $x$ is the first, the three numbers are

$x,\ x+1,\ x+2$

The sum of the first and third integer is

$x+(x+2)=2x+2$
