Answer:

x=1/2, y=2;

Step-by-step explanation:

First pair:

2x-5y =-9

4x+5y=12

Add them together:

6x=3

x = 1/2

2(1/2) - 5y =-9

1-5y = -9

1+9=5y

y=10/5=2

What is the scale factor of dilation? (1 point)

sukhopar [10]

Scale Factor (Dilation) The scale factor in the dilation of a mathematical object determines how much larger or smaller the image will be (compared to the original object). When the absolute value of the scale factor is greater than one, an expansion occurs.

An electrical power company is looking to expand into a new market. Before they commit to supplying the new area with electricit

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

atleast 385

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that an electrical power company is looking to expand into a new market. Before they commit to supplying the new area with electricity, they would like know the mean daily power usage for homes there.

Population std deviation = $\sigma = 50$

Sample size = $n$

STd error of sample mean = $\frac{50}{\sqrt{n} }$

Margin of error for 95% would be Critical value ( std error)

Here since population std dev is known we can use Z critical value= 1.96

$1.96*\frac{50}{\sqrt{n} }19.6^2\\n>384.16$

Sample size should be atleast 385
