Answer:

(-2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is the point at which the two lines intersect, (-2,4). That point is the only one that satisfies (works) in both equations:

y = x + 6

4 = -2 + 6

and

y = -0.5x + 3

4 = -0.5(-2) + 3

4 = 1 + 3

====

You can also solve it algebraically:

y = x + 6

y = -0.5x + 3

-0.5x + 3 = x + 6 [Use the value of y from the second equation in the first equation]

-1.5x = 3

x = -2

Use this is y = -2 + 6:

y = 4

(-2,4)

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The probability that the age of a randomly selected CEO will be between 50 and 55 years old is 0.334.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a normal distribution with mean=56 years and s.d.=4 years.

We have to calculate the probability that a randomly selected CEO have an age between 50 and 55.

We have to calculate the z-value for 50 and 55.

For x=50:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{50-56}{4}=\frac{-6}{4}= -1.5$

For x=55:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{55-56}{4}=\frac{-1}{4}=-0.25$

The probability of being between 50 and 55 years is equal to the difference between the probability of being under 55 years and the probability of being under 50 years:

$P(50$

How could you calculate each product? Describe the strategy you would use. Then calculate.

VashaNatasha [74]

Hey there!

1. To solve 9 x 5 , I could add the number 9 five times . . .

9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 = 45

9 x 5 = 45 <----

2. I would use the same strategy as the first one, except add the number 8 five times . . .

8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 = 40

8 x 5 = 40 <----

Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!
