Answer:

x = -2 , y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

5x + 2y = -2                            <em>*4</em>

4x + 3y = 4                             <em>*5</em>

Solving simultaneously,

    20x + 8y = -8 ....eq 1

(-)  20x +15y = 20  ...eq 2

.............................................

-7y = -28

y = -28 / -7

y = 4

  • if y = 4

using equation 2,

20x +15(4) = 20

20x = -40

x = -2

Assume that college students have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Fin
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

0.018 is  the probability that a randomly selected college student has an IQ greater than 131.5                                

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 100

Standard Deviation, σ = 15

We are given that the distribution of IQ score is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

a) P(IQ greater than 131.5)

P(x > 131.5)

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,  

0.018 is  the probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ greater than 131.5

A rectangular box is to have a square base and a volume of 20 ft3. If the material for the base costs $0.35 per square foot, the
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Length = 2 ft

Width = 2 ft

Height = 5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the square base of the box has one side = x ft

Therefore, area of the base = x² ft²

Cost of the material to prepare the base = $0.35 per square feet

Cost to prepare the base = $0.35x²

Let the height of the box = y ft

Then the volume of the box = x²y ft³ = 20

y=\frac{20}{x^{3} } -----(1)

Cost of the material for the sides = $0.10 per square feet

Area of the sides = 4xy

Cost to prepare the sides of the box = $0.10 × 4xy

                                                             = $0.40xy

Cost of the material to prepare the top = $0.15 per square feet

Cost to prepare the top = $0.15x²

Total cost of the box = 0.35x² + 0.40xy + 0.15x²

From equation (1),

Total cost C=0.35x^{2}+(0.40x)\times \frac{20}{x^{2} }+0.15x^{2}

C=0.35x^{2}+\frac{8}{x}+0.15x^{2}

C=0.5x^{2}+\frac{8}{x}

Now we take the derivative of C with respect to x and equate it to zero,

C'=0.5(2x)-\frac{8}{x^{2}} = 0

x-\frac{8}{x^{2}}=0

x=\frac{8}{x^{2} }

x^{3}=8

x = 2 ft.

From equation (1),

(2)^{2}y=20

4y = 20

y = 5 ft

Therefore, Length and width of the box should be 2 ft and height of the box should be 5 ft for the minimum cost to construct the rectangular box.

If sinθ&lt;0 and cosθ&gt;0, then the terminal point determined by θ is in:
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

D.) Quadrant 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Sin theta < 0 tells us the angle is in quadrant 3 or 4

The y component is negative

Cos theta >0 tells us the angle is in quadrant 1 or 4

The x component is positive

Therefore theta must be in quadrant 4
