Answer:

x = 4
WX = WY = 25
XY = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is isosceles with side WX equal to side WY:

WX = WY

9x -11 = 7x -3

2x = 8 . . . . . add 11-7x

x = 4

Then the side measures are ...

WX = WY = 7(4) -3 = 28 -3 = 25

XY = 4(4) +1 = 16 +1 = 17

The amount people pay for cable service varies quite a bit but the mean monthly fee is $142 and the standard deviation is $29. t

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

a) By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean is $142 and the standard deviation is $0.7488.

b) By the Central Limit Theorem, approximately normal.

c) 0.0901 = 9.01% probability that the average cable service paid by the sample of cable service customers will exceed $143

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

The mean monthly fee is $142 and the standard deviation is $29.

This means that $\mu = 142, \sigma = 29$

Part a: what are the mean an standard deviation of the sample distribution of x hat show your work and justify your reasoning.

Sample of 1500(larger than 30).

By the Central Limit Theorem

The mean is $142

The standard deviation is $s = \frac{29}{\sqrt{1500}} = 0.7488$

Part b: what is the shape of the sampling distribution of x hat justify your answer.

By the Central Limit Theorem, approximately normal.

Part C: what is the probability that the average cable service paid by the sample of cable service customers will exceed $143?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 143. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{143 - 142}{0.7488}$

$Z = 1.34$

$Z = 1.34$ has a pvalue of 0.9099

1 - 0.9099 = 0.0901

0.0901 = 9.01% probability that the average cable service paid by the sample of cable service customers will exceed $143

1. What is the value of the y variable in the solution to the following system of equations?

ollegr [7]

Part 1)

we have

$3x-6y=3$ ------> equation A

$7x-5y=-11$ ------> equation B

Multiply by $-7$ the equation A

$-7(3x-6y)=-7*3$

$-21x+42y=-21$ ------> equation C

Multiply by $3$ the equation B

$3*(7x-5y)=-11*3$

$21x-15y=-33$ -------> equation D

Adds equation C and equation D

$-21x+42y=-21 \\21x-15y=-33\\---------- \\ 42y-15y=-21-33\\27y=-54 \\ y=-2$

therefore

the answer Part 1) is the option A

$y=-2$

Part 2)

we have

$3x+y=6$

$y=-3x+6$ ------> equation A

$6x+2y=8$

Simplify Divide by $2$ both sides

$3x+y=4$

$y=-3x+4$ ------> equation B

the lines A and B are parallel lines, because the slope m is equal

The system has no solution

therefore

the answer Part 2) is the option D

There is no x value as there is no solution to the system.

Part 3)

we have

$4x+2y=6$ ------> equation A

$x-y=3$

$y=x-3$ ------> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$4x+2[x-3]=6$

$6x-6=6$

$6x=12$

$x=2$

therefore

the answer part 3) is the option D

$x=2$

Part 4)

Let

x---------> The number of one-step equations

y---------> The number of two-step equations

we know that

$x+y=1,120$

$x=1,120-y$ -------> equation A

$3x-2y=1,300$ ------> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$3[1,120-y]-2y=1,300$

$3,360-5y=1,300$

$5y=3,360-1,300$

$5y=2,060$

$y=412$

therefore

the answer part 4) is the option D

$y=412$
