Answer:

Hello,

a=0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

\left \{ \begin{array}{ccc}ax+2y&=&12\\8x+32y&=&144\\\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ \left \{ \begin{array}{ccc}ax+2y&=&12\\x+4y&=&18\\\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ \left \{ \begin{array}{ccc}(1-2a)x&=&-6\\x+4y&=&18\\\end{array}\right.\\\\if\ 1-2a\neq 0\ (or\ a\neq \dfrac{1}{2} )\ then\\\left \{ \begin{array}{ccc}x&=&\dfrac{6}{2a-1}\\\\y&=&\dfrac{18-\dfrac{6}{2a-1}}{4} \\\end{array}\right.\\\\

\Longleftrightarrow\ \left \{ \begin{array}{ccc}x&=&\dfrac{6}{2a-1}\\\\y&=&\dfrac{ 3(3a-2)}{2a-1} \\\end{array}\right.\\\\

else\

a=\dfrac{1}{2} \\\Longleftrightarrow\ \left \{ \begin{array}{ccc}\dfrac{1}{2} x+2y&=&12\\\\x+4y&=&18 \\\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ \left \{ \begin{array}{ccc}x+4y&=&24\\\\x+4y&=&18 \\\end{array}\right.\\\\\\\Longleftrightarrow\ \left \{ \begin{array}{ccc}0=6\ !!!!!\\\end{array}\right.\\\\Syetem\ has\ no\ solution\\

It costs Guido $0.20 per minute to forward voicemail messages as texts to his cell phone. He already spent $4 in forwarding mess
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of minutes = x

It costs Guido $0.20 per minute to forward voicemail messages as texts to his cell phone. He already spent $4 in forwarding messages this month.

For Guido

$4 + 0.20x

His mom has spent $2 forwarding messages. It costs her $0.40 per minute so she can call long distance.

For his mum

$2 + 0.40x

Guido's mom said they have to spend the same amount.

Equating both Equations together

$4 + 0.20x = $2 + 0.40x

$4 - $2 = 0.40x - 0.20x

2 = 0.20x

x = 2/0.20

x = 10 minutes

Guido can talk for 10 minutes

A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed lifespan, with a mean of 15 years, and standard deviation of 3
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

The probability that their mean life will be longer than 13 years = .9943 or 99.43%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

Mean (\nu  ) = 15 years

Standard deviation (\sigma  ) = 3.7 years

Sample size ( n ) =22

Let \overline{X} be the mean life of manufacturing items

the probability that their mean life will be longer than 13 years =

P(\overline{X}>  13) =  P(\frac{\overline{X} - \nu }{\frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}}}>  \frac{13 - 15 }{\frac{3.7}{\sqrt{22}}})       (Z =\frac{\overline{X} - \nu }{\frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n}}})

                    =  P(Z> -2.53)

                    = 1 - P(Z <  -2.53)       Using Z table

                    = 1 - .0057

                    =  .9943

PLS ESTIMATE/ 67% of 8.7
Studentka2010 [4]
67 percent of 8.7

\frac{67}{100}  \times  \frac{x}{8.7}
100x = 67 \times 8.7

100x = 582.9

Divide by 100 on both sides to isolate the x

x = 5.829
Round up (to the nearest tenth place and whole number)

x = 6
x = 5.8
