Answer: (-6,-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 2y = -2 ............ equation 1
3x - y = -13 ................ equation 2
solving by substitution method
from equation 2 , make y the subject of the formula, we have
y = 3x + 13 .............. equation 3
substitute equation 3 into equation 1 , we have
2x - 2 (3x + 13 ) = -2
2x - 6x - 26 = -2
-4x - 26 = -2
-4x = -2 +26
-4x = 24
x = 24/-4
x = -6
substitute x = -6 into equation 3 to get the value of y , we have
y = 3(-6) + 13
y = -18 +13
y = -5
The following statement
'In general, men who took drug x maintained or increased the number of visible scalp hairs; while scalp hairs counts in men who took the placebo continued to decrease'
can be referred as descriptive statistics, since we are saying that the msot of the men who took the drug gain scalp hairs while the contrary happened from those men who took placebo.
On the other hand, the statement
'drug x is effective in maintaining or increasing the amount of scalp hair in men'
Is a deduction you make, so it can be referred as inferential statistics
The answer is m=6. You do 5m-4m=5+1 and get m=6.
Well, something around 522 so probably like 500 or 525
