Which would be a correct first step to solve the following system of equations using the elimination method?

x + 3y = 16
2x + y = -18

A: Add the two equations together

B: Subtract the first equation from the second equation

C: Multiply the first equation by -2

D: Multiply the second equation by 2

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

C: Multiply the first equation by -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 * (x + 3y = 16) = -2x-6y=-32

The resulting equation would be -2x-6y=-32

In the next if you add the two equations, you will successfuly eliminate x and can now solve for y.

-2x-6y=-32

2x + y = -18

Answer 2

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

x+3y=16________________eqn 1

2x+y=-18_______________eqn 2

multiply first equation by - 2

-2(x+3y=16)

-2x-6y= -32______________eqn 3

using elimination method

-2x-6y= -32

+

2x+y= -18

0-5y= -50

-5y= -50

divide both sides by -5

-5y/5= -50/5

y=10

substitute y in eqn 2 to find the value of x

2x+y= -18

2x+(10)= -18

2x+10= -18

2x= -18-10

2x= -28

divide both sides by 2

2x/2= -28/2

x= -14

You must use your knowledge of probability and conditional probability to help determine the likelihood of appeal and reversal for cases handled by different courts. Which outcome has the highest probability of occurring based on the data? a. A case in Domestic Relations Court being reversed b. A case in Common Pleas Court being reversed c. A case in Municipal Court being reversed d. There is not enough information to determine the answer

Answers

ANSWER: "There is not enough information to determine the answer". Option D is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a case that was ruled by a court to be reversed by a higher court, they must be conditions in the ruling of the lower court that has been reconsidered by the higher court. This is regardless of the jurisdiction of the court or judge that ruled the case.

A case from all the courts in the options can be reversed by a higher court if the courts judgement lacks merit by the higher court, at any given times, irrespective of the court.

Answers

Answer:

The average of the extracted scores  = 133.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data the average mark of candidates in an aptitude test was 138.5 with a standard deviation of 10.6

mean of the aptitude test = 138.5

Standard deviation of the  aptitude test = 10.6

Given three scores extracted from the test are 178,122,100

The average of the extracted scores = ∑x / n

The average of the extracted scores

                                        = [tex]\frac{178 +122 +100}{3}[/tex]

as a last-minute deal Don and Mary booked a 7 day cruise for a total of $670 if the normal price for a couple is $1340, what discount percent did Don and Mary recieve?​

Answers

Answer:

Don and Mary received a discount of 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, we use a rule of three to find the percentage of the initial price that they paid.

The discount is 100% subtracted by the percentage they paid.

Percentage they paid:

The normal price for a couple is $1340, which is 100%.

They paid $670, which is x%. We have to find x.

$1340 - 100%

$670 - x%

[tex]1340x = 100*670[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{100*670}{1340}[/tex]

[tex]x = 50[/tex]

They paid 50% of the original price.

What discount percent did Don and Mary recieve?​

100 - 50% = 50%

Don and Mary received a discount of 50%.

The mean of the data set(9,5,y,2,x) is twice the data set(8,x,4,1,3).what is (y-x)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y-x = 16[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Set 1: (9,5,y,2,x)

Set 2: (8,x,4,1,3)

Required

(y - x)

First the mean values of set 1 and set 2 has to be calculated

For set 1

[tex]Mean _1 = \frac{(9+5+y+2+x)}{5}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]Mean _1 = \frac{9+5+2+y+x}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Mean _1 = \frac{16+ y+x}{5}[/tex]

For set 2

[tex]Mean _2 = \frac{(8+x+4+1+3)}{5}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]Mean _2 = \frac{8+4+1+3+x}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Mean _2= \frac{16+ x}{5}[/tex]

Given that the mean of set 1 is twice the mean of set 2;

[tex]Mean_1 = 2Mean_2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{16+ y+x}{5} =2 * \frac{16+x}{5}[/tex]

Multiply both sided by 5

[tex]5 * \frac{16+ y+x}{5} = 5 * 2 * \frac{16+x}{5}[/tex]

[tex]16+ y+x = 2 * (16+x)[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]16+ y+x = 32 + 2x[/tex]

Subtract 16 from both sides

[tex]16+ y+x- 16 = 32 + 2x - 16[/tex]

[tex]16 - 16 + y+x = 32 - 16 + 2x[/tex]

[tex]y+x = 16 + 2x[/tex]

Subtract 2x from both sides

[tex]y+x-2x = 16 + 2x-2x[/tex]

[tex]y-x = 16[/tex]

The length of a rectangle is increasing at a rate of 8 cmys and its width is increasing at a rate of 3 cmys. When the length is 20 cm and the width is 10 cm, how fast is the area of the rectangle increasing?

Answers

Answer:

The area of the rectangle increasing at the rate of 140 cm²/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle area:

A rectangle has two dimensions, length l and width w.

It's area is:

A = l*w.

When the length is 20 cm and the width is 10 cm, how fast is the area of the rectangle increasing?

We apply implicit differentiation to solve this question:

[tex]A = l*w[/tex]

So

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = l\frac{dw}{dt} + w\frac{dl}{dt}[/tex]

Length is 20, so [tex]l = 20[/tex].

Width is 10, so [tex]w = 10[/tex]

The length of a rectangle is increasing at a rate of 8 cm/s and its width is increasing at a rate of 3 cm/s.

This means that [tex]\frac{dl}{dt} = 8, \frac{dw}{dt} = 3[/tex]

So

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = l\frac{dw}{dt} + w\frac{dl}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = 20*3 + 10*8 = 140[/tex]

Area in cm².

So

The area of the rectangle increasing at the rate of 140 cm²/s

Triangle QRS is dilated according to the rule DO,2 (x,y). On a coordinate plane, (0, 0) is the center of dilation. Triangle Q R S has points (negative 3, 3), (2, 4), and (negative 1, 1). What is true about the image ΔQ'R'S'? Select three options. Which statements are true? DO,2 (x,y) = (2x, 2y) Side Q'S' lies on a line with a slope of -1. QR is longer than Q'R'. The vertices of the image are closer to the origin than those of the pre-image. The distance from Q' to the origin is twice the distance from Q to the origin.

Answers

Answer:

Options A, B and E are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given above, we would draw a dilation that produces an image that is the same shape as the original image, but has a different size.

The scale factor is 2

QRS → Q'R'S' = (x,y) → 2(x,y)

The coordinates of ∆QRS

Q (-3, 3)

R (2, 4)

S (-1, 1)

To get the coordinates of Q'R'S', we would multiply each coordinate of the original triangle by the scale factor of 2 since the dilation is from the origin. In order words, each vertex of QRS is multiplied by 2 to get each of the vertex of Q'R'S'.

2 (x,y) = (2x, 2y)

The coordinates of ∆Q'R'S' becomes:

Q' (-6, 6)

R' (4, 8)

S' (-2, 2)

To determine the statements that are true about the image ΔQ'R'S,

we would graph the coordinates of the two triangles.

Starting with ΔABC, we would draw the dilation image of the triangle with a center at the origin and a scale factor of 2.

See attached the diagram for better explanation.

Let's check out each options and compare it with diagram we obtained:

a) DO, 2 (x,y) = (2x, 2y)

A dilation about the origin with a scale factor 2 is described using the above notation.

Q' = 2(-3,3) = [2(-3), 2(3)] = (-6, 6)

R' (4, 8) = 2(2,4) = [2(2), 2(4)] = (4, 8)

S' (-2, 2) = 2(-1,1) = [2(-1), 2(1)] = (-2, 2)

This option is correct

b) Side Q'S' lies on a line with a slope of -1

Q' (-6, 6)

S' (-2, 2)

coordinate (x, y)

Slope = m = (change in y)/(change in x)

m = (6-2)/[-6-(-2)]

= 4/(-6+2) = 4/-4

m = -1

This option is correct

c) QR is longer than Q'R'

Length of QR (-3 to 2) = 5

Length of Q'R' (-6 to 4) = 10

QR is not longer than Q'R'

This option is false

d) The vertices of the image are closer to the origin than those of the pre-image

The scale factor determines how much bigger or smaller the dilation image will be compared to the preimage. In a transformation, the final figure is referred to as the image. The original figure is referred to as the preimage.

From the diagram, the vertices of the preimage (original image) are closer to the origin than those of the dilation image.

This option is false

e) The distance from Q' to the origin is twice the distance from Q to the origin.

The distance from Q' to the origin (6 to 0) = 6

The distance from Q to the origin (3 to 0) = 3

The distance from Q' to the origin = 2(the distance from Q to the origin)

This option is correct

Answers

Answer is   1:4

================================================

Explanation:

When we talk about "odds in favor", we will use a colon to separate two whole numbers. The first number represents the number of ways for Evelyn to be chosen treasurer (just one way) and the second number represents all the ways she doesn't get chosen (the four other people)

Put another way, writing "odds in favor are 1:4" basically means "there's 1 way to get Evelyn elected and 4 ways for her to not get elected"

Instead of writing 1:4 you could write "1 to 4"

-----------

Side note: Contrast this with "odds against" and the ratio would flip from 1:4 to 4:1. Same idea, but the number of failures is listed first because we're focusing on the "against" (instead of "favor") portion. We read "4:1" as "4 to 1".

The odds in favor of Evelyn becoming treasurer are 1:5 or 1/5.

To determine the odds in favor of Evelyn becoming treasurer, we need to know the total number of possible outcomes and the number of favorable outcomes.

There are five members in the club, so there are five possible outcomes for the treasurer position, one for each member. Since Evelyn is one of the five members, she has one favorable outcome.

Therefore, the odds in favor of Evelyn becoming treasurer are 1:5 or 1/5.

A company manager for a tire manufacturer is in charge of making sure there is the least amount of defective tires. If the tire manufacturing process is working properly, the average weight of a tire for a 4-door sedan is normally distributed with a mean of 22 pounds and a standard deviation of 0.76 pounds. The manager decides to reject a tire as underweight if it falls more than 1.5 interquartile ranges below the lower quartile of the specified shipment of tires. What proportion of tires will be rejected by this process?

Answers

Answer:

0.347% of the total tires will be rejected as underweight.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a standard normal distribution, (with mean 0 and standard deviation 1), the lower and upper quartiles are located at -0.67448 and +0.67448 respectively. Thus the interquartile range (IQR) is 1.34896.

And the manager decides to reject a tire as underweight if it falls more than 1.5 interquartile ranges below the lower quartile of the specified shipment of tires.

1.5 of the Interquartile range = 1.5 × 1.34896 = 2.02344

1.5 of the interquartile range below the lower quartile = (lower quartile) - (1.5 of Interquartile range) = -0.67448 - 2.02344 = -2.69792

The proportion of tires that will fall 1.5 of the interquartile range below the lower quartile = P(x < -2.69792) ≈ P(x < -2.70)

Using data from the normal distribution table

P(x < -2.70) = 0.00347 = 0.347% of the total tires will be rejected as underweight

Hope this Helps!!!

The proportion of the tires that would be denied for being underweight through the given process would be:

[tex]0.347[/tex]% of the total tires will be rejected as underweight.

Given that,

Interquartile Range [tex]= 1.5[/tex]

Standard Deviation [tex]= 0.76[/tex]

Considering Mean = 0

and Standard Deviation = 1

Since lower quartile = -0.67448

Upper quartile  = +0.67448

IQ range =  1.34896

To find,

The proportion of tires would be rejected due to being underweight through the process would be:  

1.5 of Interquartile Range = 1.5 × [tex]1.34896 = 2.02344[/tex]

Now,

1.5 of the IQ range below the lower quartile [tex]= (lower quartile) - (1.5 of Interquartile range)[/tex]

[tex]= -0.67448 - 2.02344[/tex]

[tex]= -2.69792[/tex]

The proportion of tires that would be under 1.5 of the interquartile range below the lower quartile:

[tex]= P(x < -2.69792)[/tex] ≈ [tex]P(x < -2.70)[/tex]

Using data through the Normal Distribution Table,

[tex]P(x < -2.70)[/tex] [tex]= 0.00347[/tex]

[tex]= 0.347[/tex]%

Thus, 0.347% of the total tires would be rejected as underweight.
