5x + 3y = 41 2x + 3y = 20 show me step by steps how to do this

Mathematics
1 answer:
kompoz [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x=7 and y=2

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, you want to use elimination

1. multiply the second equation by -1

       5x + 3y = 41

       2x + 3y = 20

turns into

       5x + 3y = 41

       -2x + 3y = 20

2. combine the equations

       3x=21

3. solve for x

3x=21

3x/3=21/3

x=7

4. Now you want to plug x back into the original equation

5x+3y=41

turns into

5(7)+3y=41

5. Then solve for y

35+3y=41

35+3y-35=41-35

3y=6

3y/3=6/3

y=2

6. results

x=7 and y=2

The mean life of a television set is 119 months with a standard deviation of 14 months. If a sample of 74 televisions is randoml
irina [24]

Answer:

50.34% probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.1 months

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Normal probability distribution:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using 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 random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 119, \sigma = 14, n = 74, s = \frac{14}{\sqrt{74}} = 1.63

If a sample of 74 televisions is randomly selected, what is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.1 months

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 119 + 1.1 = 120.1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 119 - 1.1 = 117.9. So

X = 120.1

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

Z = \frac{120.1 - 119}{1.63}

Z = 0.68

Z = 0.68 has a pvalue of 0.7517

X = 117.9

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

Z = \frac{117.9 - 119}{1.63}

Z = -0.68

Z = -0.68 has a pvalue of 0.2483

0.7517 - 0.2483 = 0.5034

50.34% probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.1 months

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

(1,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

How do you calculate the balance in an account, with interest?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Divide your interest rate by the number of payments you'll make in the year (interest rates are expressed annually). ...

Multiply it by the balance of your loan, which for the first payment, will be your whole principal amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ending balance, or future value, of an account with simple interest can be calculated using the following formula: Using the prior example of a $1000 account with a 10% rate, after 3 years the balance would be $1300. This can be determined by multiplying the $1000 original balance times [1+(10%)(3)], or times 1.30.
