Answer:

x= 1 , y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

x-y= -3 => Equation 1

x+5y= 21 => Equation 2

<u>Substitut</u><u>ion</u><u> </u><u>Method</u><u>:</u>

<u>Substitu</u><u>te</u><u> </u><u>Equation</u><u> </u><u>1</u>=>

x=y-3 <= Equation 3

Put x=y-3 in Equation 2:

x+5y=21

( y-3)+5y=21

y-3+5y=21

6y-3=21

6y=21+3

6y=24

y=24÷6

y=4

Put y=4 in Equation 1:

x-y= -3

x-4=-3

x=4-3

x=1

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

x = 1

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = -3   then x = y - 3

x + 5y = 21

substitute for x:

y - 3 + 5y = 21

reduce:

6y = 24

y = 4

x = 4 - 3 = 1

check:

1 - 4 = -3

-3 = -3

and

1 + 5(4) = 21

21 = 21

Alice has two bags of marbles: Bag A contains 8 red and 3 blue marbles, and Bag B contains 5 red and 7 blue marbles. She randoml
Thepotemich [5.8K]

It might help to draw out a probability tree. Check out the diagram below. The first two branches at the top represent bags A and B. The probability of picking either bag is 1/2 assuming each bag is equally likely to be picked.

If we go with bag A, then the probability of getting blue is 3/11 since there are 3 blue out of 8+3 = 11 total. The probability of getting bag A and a blue marble is (1/2)*(3/11) = 3/22 which I've marked in the diagram as well.

If we go with bag B, then the probability of getting blue is 7/12 since there are 7 blue out of 5+7 = 12 total. The probability of getting bag B and blue is (1/2)*(7/12) = 7/24

Add up the results found getting

P(blue) = P(blue & bag A) + P(blue & bag B)

P(blue) = 3/22 + 7/24

P(blue) = 36/264 + 77/264

P(blue) = 113/264

This is shown in the diagram as well.

--------------------------------------------------

Recall that conditional probability in general is defined as follows

P(A given B) = P(A and B)/P(B)

In this problem, we'll have

P(bag B given blue) = P(bag B and blue)/P(blue)

Therefore, we can say...

P(bag B given blue) = P(bag B and blue)/P(blue)

P(bag B given blue) = (7/24)/(113/264)

P(bag B given blue) = (7/24)*(264/113)

P(bag B given blue) = (7*264)/(24*113)

P(bag B given blue) = (7*24*11)/(24*113)

P(bag B given blue) = (7*11)/(113)

P(bag B given blue) = 77/113

In short, the probability of getting bag B, given the marble is blue, is 77/113.

. The function s(l) = 1.34 √l models the maximum speed s in knots for a sailboat with length l in feet at the waterline. a. Use
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The length of the sailboat is 80 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function  

s(l) = 1.34 \sqrt{l} ................ (1)  

models the maximum speed s in knots for a sailboat with length l in feet at the waterline.

So, using this model we have to find the length of a sailboat with a maximum speed of 12 knots.

Now, from equation (1) we get

12 = 1.34 \sqrt{l}

⇒ \sqrt{l} = 8.955

⇒ l = (8.955)^{2}  = 80 feet (Answer)

{The value is round to the nearest foot}

The owner of a construction company would like to know if his current work teams can build room additions quicker than the time
frez [133]

Answer:

The claim that the current work teams can build room additions quicker than the time allotted for by the contract has strong statistical evidence.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to test the hypothesis to prove the claim that the work team can build room additions quicker than the time allotted for by the contract.

The null hypothesis is that the real time used is equal to the contract time. The alternative hypothesis is that the real time is less thant the allotted for by the contract.

H_0: \mu=0\\\\H_1: \mu

The significance level, as a storng evidence is needed, is α=0.01.

The estimated standard deviation is:

s_M=\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{0.2}{\sqrt{16}} =0.2/4=0.05

As the standard deviation is estimated, we use the t-statistic with (n-1)=15 degrees of freedom.

For a significance level of 0.01, right-tailed test, the critical value of t is t=2.603.

Then, we calculate the t-value for this sample:

t=\frac{x-\mu}{s_M} =\frac{-0.32-0}{0.05}= -6.4

As the t-statistic lies in the rejection region, the null hypothesis is rejected. The claim that the current work teams can build room additions quicker than the time allotted for by the contract has strong statistical evidence.
