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

An individual who has automobile insurance from a certain company is randomly selected. Let X be the number of moving violations
grin007 [14]

Answer:

(X)      0        1          2          3         4

P(X)   0.17   0.23    0.27    0.24    0.09

F(x)    0.17    0.04    0.65    0.91      1      

Step-by-step explanation:  

Given that;

(X)      0        1          2          3         4

P(X)   0.17   0.23    0.27    0.24    0.09

cumulative distribution function can be calculated by;  be cumulatively up the value of p(x) with the values before it;

so

x      F(x)

0     P(X = 0) = 0.17

1       P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.17 + 0.23 = 0.4

2      P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.17 + 0.23 + 0.27 = 0.65

3      P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.17 + 0.23 + 0.27 + 0.24 = 0.91

4      P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.17 + 0.23 + 0.27 + 0.24 + 0.09 = 1

Therefore, cumulative distribution function f(x) is;

(X)      0        1          2          3         4

P(X)   0.17   0.23    0.27    0.24    0.09

F(x)    0.17    0.04    0.65    0.91      1

11. Sarah claims that (x - 4) is a factor of p(x) = x2 +8x - 48.Which equation must
velikii [3]

Answer:

d) p(4) = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

p(4) = 0:-

p(4) = 4^2 + 8(4) - 48

= 16 + 32 - 48

= 0.

This is an application of the Factor Theorem ( a special case of The Remainder Theorem)

The Factor theorem states that if (x - a) is a factor of P(x) then P(a) = 0.
