Mathematics
1 answer:

3 0

Answer: 6, 12

-x+y=6    [eq.1]

2x + y = - 12    [eq.2]

    [eq.2] - [eq.1]

2x + y - (-x) - y = - 12 - 6

2x +x =-18

3x=18

x = 18/3

ans: x = 6

substituting x=6 in [eq.1]

-x + y = 6

-6 +y =6

ans: y= 12

HELP PLEASEEE, I REALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THESE QUESTIONS. THANK YOU HELP IS VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!!!
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

a) $40920

b) $38500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

5 employees,

Mean = $40300

Median = $38500

Min = $32000

If he lowest paid employee gets a $3100 raise, then his salary becomes

$32000+$3100=$35100

a) If the mean was $40300, then the sum of 5 salaries is

\$40300\cdot 5=\$201500

After raising the lowest salary the sum becomes

\$201500+\$3100=\$204600

and new mean is

\dfrac{\$204600}{5}=\$40920

b) The  lowest salary becomes $35100. It is still smaller than the median, so the new median is the same as the old one.

New median = $38500

These calculations are based on the drawing of the file enclosed.

There are three right triangles.

From the big right triangle:

a^2 + b^2 = 25^2

From the small right triangle on the left side:


(25-x)^2 + 10^2 = a^2

From the small right triangle on the right side

x^2 +10^2 = b^2

=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = a^2 + b^2

=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = 25^2

=> 25^2 - 50x + x^2 + 10^2 + 10^2 = 25^2

=> x^2 -50x + 100 =0

Use the quadratic formular to find the roots:

x = 2.1 and x = 47.9

Distance from back: 25 - 2.1 = 22.9 ft

Answer: 22.9 ft
