Solve the following system of equations by linear combination: 2x + y = 8 x – y = 4
a. The solution is (5, –2).
b. The solution is (4, 0).
c. There is no solution.
d. There are an infinite number of solutions.

Answers

Answer 1

The solution to the equation by linear combination is (b)  The solution is (4, 0).

How to determine the solution to the equation?

From the question, we have the following system of equations

2x + y = 8

x – y = 4

By linear combination, we start by eliminating one of the variables

This is done by adding the equations

So, we have

2x + x - y + y = 8 + 4

Evaluate the like terms

3x = 12

Divide both sides

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 in x – y = 4

4 – y = 4

So, we have

y = 4 - 4

Divide

y = 0

Hence, the solution is (b) (4, 0)

The expected value is 11.134

The expected value can be calculated as:

EV = ∑xₙ*pₙ

Where xₙ is the n-th outcome. For the case of the spinner we have 2 possible outcomes:

x₁ = 9

x₂ = 4

And pₙ is the probability of the n-th event.

For the case of  each spinner, the probability of each section will be equal to the quotient between the degrees of each arc, and the total number of degrees in a circle (360°).

First, we can see that for outcome = 9, the angle is a right angle, then it is equal to 30°, then the probability of this event will be:

p₁ = 30°/360° = 0.083

And the angle for the second arc must be such that:

30 + A = 360°

A = 360 - 30 = 330

Then the probability for the outcome = 4 is:

p₂ = (330°/360°) = 0.916

Now we can find the expected value as:

EV = (*9 x 0.083 + 4 x 0.916 ) = 11.134

Therefore, the expected value is 11.134

in a test for particular illness, a false-positive result is obtained about 1 in 125 times the test is administered. if the test is administered to 15000 people, obtain the approximate probability of there being more than 135 false-positive results?

Answers

The probability of being more than 135 false-positive result is equal to 0.0853.

As given in the question,

Probability of false positive 'p' = 1/125

                                                   = 0.008

Number of people tested 'sample size n' = 15,000

Mean 'μ' = np

              = 15000 × 0.008

              = 120

Standard deviation 'σ' = √n × p × ( 1 - p )

                                    = √15000 × 0.008 × ( 1 - 0.008)

                                    =√ 15000 × 0.008 × 0.992

                                    = √119.04

                                    = 10.9

z = (X - μ) /σ

Approximate probability of being more than 135 false-positive results

= P( X > 135)

= P[( X - μ )/σ > ( 135 - μ)/σ

= P ( z > (135 - 120)/ 10.9)

= P ( z > 1.37)

= 1 - P ( z ≤ 1.37)

= 1 - 0.9147  

= 0.0853 ( from z table)

Therefore, probability of being more than 135 false-positive results is equal to 0.0853.

A company received 15 funding applications and want to select 8 of them to be funded. The number of different lists of successful applications is 6,435

Suppose we have n objects in total and we want to select r objects among total objects, the number of ways they can be selected is given by the combination formula:

ⁿCr = n! / [r! (n-r)!]

Data from the problem:

n = total applications = 15

r = number of selected applications = 8

Hence, the number of different lists of successful applications is:

¹⁵C₈ = 15! / [8! (15-8)!]

Answers

The inequality that can be used to determine the maximum number of days, d, Taylor can afford to rent for while staying within her budget is $37. 93(d) + $0. 11(50) < $300 or d < 7.76.

Inequality is defined as the relationship between non-equal numbers or expressions separated by <, >, ≤, or ≥.

Let d be the maximum number of days Taylor can afford to rent for while staying within her budget.

If a rental car company charges $37. 93 per day to rent a car and $0. 11 for every mile driven, and Taylor plans to drive 50 miles, then it will cost her $37. 93(d) + $0. 11(50).

If she has $300 at most to spend, then the inequality should be d < 7.76

$37. 93(d) + $0. 11(50) < $300

many greetings to your teacher, there are some definitions missing.

this can only be done if JM and LH are true diameters of the circle.

1. if LH is a diameter, then angles KAH + LAK = 180°.

KAH = 90° (right angle).

so,

angle LAK = 180 - 90 = 90°.

2.

with JM and LH being diameters, JAH = LAM = 42°.

JAH + JAK = 90°.

angle JAK = 90 - 42 = 48°.

3. angle LAJ = LAK + JAK = 90 + 48 = 138°.

4. see also 2.

these are angles of intersecting lines (diameters). they must be the same on both sides of such an intersected line (just left-right mirrored).

JAH = LAM = 42°.

5. angle KAM = LAK + LAM = 90 + 42 = 132°.

First, we have to recognize that if the current number of girls in the class is a 15% increase from last year, then this year's number is 115% of last year's number.  

With that, we can set up a proportion comparing last year to this year, in both percentages and numbers:

     [tex]\dfrac{100}{115} = \dfrac{x}{15}[/tex]

Note that both numerators are last year's values and the denominators are this year's values.

If we multiply both sides by 15, we have that x ≈ 13.043478260869565.  Since we're dealing with whole people, we'd say that there were 13 girls in the class last year.

What is the amount of error that you will accept in the upper tail of the confidence interval?.

Answers

The amount of error that you will accept in the upper tail of the confidence interval as follows

The amount of error that will accept in the upper tail is = 13.97

Amount of error = margin of error

Margin of error = [tex]Z\frac{\alpha }{2} \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

93% = confidence interval =1- [tex]\alpha[/tex]

=1-.93

=0.07

Hence [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] =0.035

[tex]Z\frac{\alpha }{2} or t\frac{\alpha }{2} = 1.81[/tex]

This problem represents two tail test because a two-tailed test is a method in which the critical area of a distribution is two-sided and tests whether a sample is greater or less than a range of values.

And confidence interval are always two tailed.

So margin of error = [tex]1.81x\frac{1.99}{\sqrt{40} }[/tex]

= 0.57

Upper tail C.I = x + margin of error

=13.4+0.57

=13.97

Lower tail C.I = x - margin of error

= 13.4 - 0.57

=12.83

Hence the answer is, the amount of error that will accept in the upper tail is = 13.97.
