What is the answer to -5x+5y=-10 and 3x-3y=5 using substitution
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

for the 1st one the answer is x= 3 y=1 and the second one is x= 5 and y = 3 and 1/3

Step-by-step explanation: so basically for the first one -5 times x which is 3 is -15 right? and then 5 times y which is 1 is 5 right so -15 plus 5 = -10

second one is x = 5 and y = 3 and 1/3 because 5*x which is 5 is = to 15 right? and then 3 times y which is equal to 3 and 1/3 is equal to 10 which when you do 15-10 in pretty sure it equals 5 correct me if im wrong

Hope this helps xD ;)

With a short time remaining in the​ day, a delivery driver has time to make deliveries at 4 locations among the 7 locations rema
omeli [17]

Answer:

35 different routes

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem of how many different routes are possible if a driver wants to make deliveries at 4 locations among 7 locations is a combination problem.

Combination problems are usually selection problems, of all or part of a set of options, without considering the order in which options are selected.

The number of combinations of n objects taken r at a time is: ⁿCᵣ

So, the number of ways the driver can make deliveries at 4 locations out of 7 locations of given by

⁷C₄ = 35 different ways.

Hence, 35 different routes are possible to make deliveries at 4 locations out of 7 locations.

Hope this Helps!!!

The U.S. Census Bureau conducts a study to determine the time needed to complete the short form. The Bureau surveys 200 people.
NISA [10]

Answer:

8.2-2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}}=6.86    

8.2+2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}}=9.54    

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (6.86;9.54)    And the error is given by:

ME= 2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}} =1.338

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

\bar X=8.2 represent the sample mean for the sample  

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

\sigma=2.2 represent the population standard deviation

n represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of \alpha=0.1 and \alpha/2 =0.005, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.005,0,1)".And we see that z_{\alpha/2}=2.58

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

8.2-2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}}=6.86    

8.2+2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}}=9.54    

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (6.86;9.54)    And the error is given by:

ME= 2.58\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{18}} =1.338
