The solution to this system is (x, y) = (8, -22).
The y-values get closer together by 2 units for each 2-unit increase in x. The difference at x=2 is 6, so we expect the difference in y-values to be zero when we increase x by 6 (from 2 to 8).
You can extend each table after the same pattern.
In table 1, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 8.
In table 2, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 6.
The attachment shows the tables extended to x=10. We note that the y-values are the same (-22) for x=8 (as we predicted above). That means the solution is ...
... (x, y) = (8, -22)
Question;
In the next year, an economist in a particular nation believes that exports will have a mean of 295 and a standard deviation of 12 (in millions of dollars). In addition, he believes that imports will have a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 14 (in millions of dollars). Finally, he believes that the correlation between imports and exports will be -0.63. Define the trade balance as exports minus imports. Find the mean and the standard deviation of the trade balance (in millions of dollars) ROUND YOUR ANSWERS TO TWO DECIMAL PLACES
Answer:
Mean = mean exports - mean imports = 295 - 70 = 225.00
Standard deviation = 12 - 14 = -2( in million dollars)
As Tina only has 1/4 of a cake. For simplicity sake we can do the calculation with a whole cake and then multiply by four!
First it is stated that cake is divided into six pieces, giving us our first number.
So,
6 x 4 = 24
This means that each friend will get 1/24th of the whole cake.
