Answer:

x = 3/2

y = 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 4

x = y - 1


substitute y - 1 in for x in the first equation, to find y


y - 1 + y = 4

2y - 1 = 4


add 1 on both sides

2y - 1 = 4

+1 +1

2y = 5


divide by 2 on both sides

2y/2 = 5/2

y = 5/2


subtitute y in for the second equation, to find x

x = 5/2 - 1

x = 5/2 - 2/2

x = 3/2


so x = 3/2 and y = 5/2

to double check, plug x and y in the first equation

3/2 + 5/2 = 4

8/2 = 4

4 = 4

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

The t value for 99% CI for 21 df is 2.831.

The critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is (64.593, 86.407).

Step-by-step explanation:

Now the sample size is less than 30 and also population standard deviation is not known.

Then we will use t distribution to find CI

t value for 99% CI for 21 df is TINV(0.01,21)=2.831

The margin of error is E=t\times\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=2.831\times\frac{18.07}{\sqrt{22}}\\\\=10.907

Hence CI isCI=\overline{x} \pm E\\\\ =75.50 \pm 10.907\\\\=(64.593,86.407 )

A line segment AB has midpoint (2, 5). If the coordinates of A are (-1, -3), what are the coordinates of B?
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

B (5; 13)

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint (x) = (-1 + bx)/2 = 2

Bx - 1 = 4

Bx = 5

Midpoint (y) = (-3 + By)/2 = 5

By - 3 = 10

By = 13

B (5; 13)
