-X + 2y= -3 and -8x — 3y= -5

Mathematics
2 answers:
Evgen [1.6K]2 years ago

Answer:

x = 1, y = -1

or as an ordered pair, (1, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

  -x  + 2y = -3

-8x — 3y = -5

Multiply first equation by -8:

8x - 16y = 24

Add this equation to the second equation:

-19y = 19

y = -1.

Plug y = -1 into the second equation:

-8x - 3(-1) = -5

-8x + 3 = -5

-8x = -8

x = 1.

Answer:

x=1, y=-1. (1, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

-x+2y=-3

-8x-3y=-5

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

-8(-x+2y)=-8(-3)

-8x-3y=-5

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

8x-16y=24

-8x-3y=-5

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

-19y=19

y=19/-19

y=-1

-x+2(-1)=-3

-x-2=-3

-x=-3+2

-x=-1

x=1

(1, -1)

What percent of 20 is 16?!!!<br><br>What's the answer and how do I work the problem out?!!
-Dominant- [34]

<span>16/20 is 80%.</span>

You find out by multiplying the denominator: 20 * 5 = 100

Then, you do the same to the numerator which is: 16 * 5 = x

So, x = 80%

Hope this helps! :D

A geologist examines 14 geological samples for iron concentration. The mean iron concentration for the sample data is 0.181 cc/c
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the population mean iron concentration is between 0.167 cc/m³ and 0.195 cc/m³.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.05 = 0.95, so z = 1.645

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.645*\frac{0.0318}{\sqrt{14}} = 0.0140

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 0.181 - 0.0140 = 0.167 cc/m³.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 0.181 + 0.0140 = 0.195 cc/m³.

The 90% confidence interval for the population mean iron concentration is between 0.167 cc/m³ and 0.195 cc/m³.
