Answer:

x = 1

y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x - 3y = 8

4x + 3y =-2

Required

x and y

Add both equations to eliminate y

2x + 4x - 3y + 3y = 8 - 2

6x = 6

Divide both sides by 6

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 in the first equation

2x - 3y = 8

2 * 1 - 3y = 8

2 - 3y = 8

-3y = 8 - 2

-3y = 6

Divide by -3

y = -2

Keenan currently does a total of 888 pushups each day. He plans to increase the number of pushups he does each day by 222 pushup
FromTheMoon [43]

888+222x=303030       *and to solve*

-888            =888               subtract 888 to isolate x

222x=302142                          

222/222x= 302142              divide by 222

x=1361.

It will take Keenan 1,361 days to get to his goals of 303,030 push ups.

hope it helps!

A financial talk show host claims to have a 55.3 % success rate in his investment recommendations. You collect some data over th
baherus [9]

Answer:

There is a 25.52% probability of observating 4 our fewer succesful recommendations.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each recommendation, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it was a success, or it was a failure. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

In this problem we have that:

p = 0.553, n = 10

If the claim is correct and the performance of recommendations is independent, what is the probability that you would have observed 4 or fewer successful:

This is

P(X \leq 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.553)^{0}.(0.447)^{10} = 0.0003

P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.553)^{1}.(0.447)^{9} = 0.0039

P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.553)^{2}.(0.447)^{8} = 0.0219

P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.553)^{3}.(0.447)^{7} = 0.0724

P(X = 4) = C_{10,4}.(0.553)^{4}.(0.447)^{6} = 0.1567

P(X \leq 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.0003 + 0.0039 + 0.0219 + 0.0724 + 0.1567 = 0.2552

There is a 25.52% probability of observating 4 our fewer succesful recommendations.

If x&gt;7, then |x|&gt;7. |y|&gt;7, so y=7<br><br><br> Valid or invalid?
Alex

\text{if }x>7\text{, then }|x|>7 is a valid argument

|y|>7\text{, so }y=7 is not a valid argument

For the first argument: \text{if }x>7\text{, then }|x|>7

From the definition of absolute value function

|x|=x   if x\ge0

That is every positive number is its own absolute value. Since

x>7\implies x\ge0,

we can argue that

x>7\implies |x|>7

so the first argument is valid

For the second argument: |y|>7\text{, so }y=7

From the definition of absolute value function

|y|:=\left \{ {y\text{  if }y\ge0}\atop{-y\text{  if }y

This means that

|y|>7:=\left \{ {y>7\text{  if }y\ge0}\atop{-y>7\text{  if }y

or

|y|>7:=\left \{ {y>7\text{  if }y\ge0}\atop{y

no part of the definition allow for the option y=7. So the second argument is not valid.
