Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that y is equal to 3/2x-2. We can replace the y in the first equation with 3/2x-2 because they are equal and we can solve for x.

3x-2(3/2x-2)=-8

We use the distributive property to undo the parentheses.

3x-3x+4=-8

We combine like terms.

4=-8

We see that since there is no x anymore, there cannot be a solution. We have no x value to solve for the y value either, so there is no solution to this system of equations.

Jilk Inc.'s contribution margin ratio is 62% and its fixed monthly expenses are $45,000. Assuming that the fixed monthly expenses do not change, what is the best estimate of the company's net operating income in a month when sales are $132,000?

Answers

Answer: $ 36,840.

Step-by-step explanation:

contribution margin=62% =0.62

fixed monthly expenses = $45,000

Sales =  $132,000

We assume that the fixed monthly expenses do not change.

Then, company's net operating income = (contribution margin×Sales )-fixed monthly expenses

=$( (0.62×132000)-45000 )

= $ (81840-45000)

= $ 36,840

Hence, the best estimate of the company's net operating income in a month when sales are $132,000 is $ 36,840.

If r=9 and 4r+3s=75, what is the value of s?

Answers

4(9) + 3s = 75
36 + 3s = 75
3s = 39
s = 13

Answer:

s = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

4r+3s=75 , r = 9

Since we know the value of r, we can substitute the value of r into the above equation to find s

That's

4( 9) + 3s = 75

36 + 3s = 75

Group like terms

3s = 75 - 36

3s = 39

Divide both sides by 3

That's

[tex] \frac{3s}{3} = \frac{39}{3} [/tex]

We have the final answer as

s = 13

The distance that Sarah travels varies directly to how long she drives. She travels 440 miles in 8 hours. Write the equation that relates the distance, d, to the time, t. How many miles can Sarah travel in 6 hours?

Answers

Answer:

330

Step-by-step explanation:

If d = distance, t = time, and s = speed, then the relationship between the 3 is s * t = d.

Solve for speed by dividing the distance over the time, s = d/t. Then, plug in the speed which in this case is 55 mph and then multiply by the time of 6 hours.

Suppose the following data show the prices of 4 cars with similar characteristics that sold at a recent auction (in thousands of dollars): 6.6, 5, 10.7, 7.3. Calculate the standard deviation of the sample of selling prices. (please express your answer using 2 decimal places)

Answers

Answer: 2.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The prices of 4 cars with similar characteristics that sold at a recent auction (in thousands of dollars): 6.6, 5, 10.7, 7.3.

Let x: 6.6, 5, 10.7, 7.3.

n= 4

Mean : [tex]\overline{x}=\dfrac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow\ \overline{x}=\dfrac{6.6+5+10.7+7.3}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{29.6}{4}\\\\=7.4[/tex]

Now , standard deviation = [tex]\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum(x-\overline{x})^2}{n-1}}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{\dfrac{(6.6-7.4)^2+( 5-7.4)^2+( 10.7-7.4)^2+( 7.3-7.4)^2}{4-1}}\\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.64+5.76+10.89+0.01}{3}}\\\\=\sqrt{\dfrac{17.3}{3}}\approx2.40[/tex]

a wolf population of 850 wolves is increasing by 7% each year. Find the wolf population after 7 years

Answers

Answer:

1,267 wolves

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population of wolf = 850 wolves

If the wolves increases by 7% each year, yearly increment will be 7% of 850

=  7/100 * 850

= 7*8.5

= 59.5 wolves.

This shows that the wolves increases by 59.5 each year.

After 7 years, increment will be equivalent  to 59.5 * 7 = 416.5

The wolf population after 7 years = Initial population + Increment after 7 years

= 850 + 416.5

= 1266.5

≈ 1267 wolves

Hence the population of the wolves after 7 years is approximately 1,267 wolves

A group of fitness club members lose a combined total of 28 kilograms in 1 week. There are approximately 2.2 pounds in 1 kilogram. Assuming the weight loss happened at a constant rate, about how many pounds did the group lose each day?

Answers

Answer:

8.8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Combined weight loss which occurred within a week = 28 kg

Number of days in a week = 7 days

1 kilogram (kg) = 2.2 pounds

Combined weight loss in pounds that occurs within a week:

Weight loss in kg × 2.2

28kg * 2.2 = 61.6 pounds

Assume weight loss occurred at a constant rate :

Weight lost by the group per day :

(Total weight loss / number of days in a week)

(61.6 pounds / 7)

7. Clarissa Santo worked in a position that earned $2,247 per month for 7 months. Then, she
received a promotion to a position that earned $2,310 per month. What total gross pay did Clarissa
earn for the year?​

Answers

Answer: $27,279

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is:

Clarissa earned $2,247 per month, in the first 7 months.

After that, she earned $2,310 per month.

What total gross pay did Clarissa  earned in one year?

Ok, a year has 12 months, in the first 7 months she earned $2,247 per month, so 7 times $2,247, this is:

7*$2,247 = $15,729

And in the other 12 - 7 = 5 months, she earned $2,310 per month, so 5 times $2,310.

5*$2,310 = $11,550

Adding those togheter:

Total gross = $15,729 + $11,550  = $27,279

If the average yield of cucumber acre is 800 kg, with a variance 1600 kg, and that the amount of the cucumber follows the normal distribution. 1- What percentage of a cucumber give the crop amount between 778 and 834 kg? 2- What the probability of cucumber give the crop exceed 900 kg ?

Answers

Answer:

a

   The  percentage is

            [tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 51.1 \%[/tex]

b

   The probability is  [tex]P(Z > 2.5 ) = 0.0062097[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

        The  population mean is  [tex]\mu = 800[/tex]

        The  variance is  [tex]var(x) = 1600 \ kg[/tex]

        The  range consider is  [tex]x_1 = 778 \ kg \ x_2 = 834 \ kg[/tex]

         The  value consider in second question is  [tex]x = 900 \ kg[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

        [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{var (x)}[/tex]

substituting value

        [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{1600}[/tex]

       [tex]\sigma = 40[/tex]

The percentage of a cucumber give the crop amount between 778 and 834 kg  is mathematically represented as

       [tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = P( \frac{x_1 - \mu }{\sigma} < \frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma } < \frac{x_2 - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]

    Generally  [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma } = Z (standardized \ value \ of \ X)[/tex]

So

      [tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = P( \frac{778 - 800 }{40} < Z< \frac{834 - 800 }{40 } )[/tex]

      [tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = P(z_2 < 0.85) - P(z_1 < -0.55)[/tex]

From the z-table  the value for  [tex]P(z_1 < 0.85) = 0.80234[/tex]

                                            and [tex]P(z_1 < -0.55) = 0.29116[/tex]  

So

             [tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 0.80234 - 0.29116[/tex]

             [tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 0.51118[/tex]

The  percentage is

            [tex]P(x_1 < X < x_2 ) = 51.1 \%[/tex]

The probability of cucumber give the crop exceed 900 kg is mathematically represented as

             [tex]P(X > x ) = P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{x - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]

substituting values

             [tex]P(X > x ) = P( \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } >\frac{900 - 800 }{40 } )[/tex]

             [tex]P(X > x ) = P(Z >2.5 )[/tex]

From the z-table  the value for  [tex]P(Z > 2.5 ) = 0.0062097[/tex]

Find the number of pieces of floor tiles each measuring 26cm long and 10cm wide needed to lay a floor measuring 260m long and 15m wide

Answers

Answer:

Answers

Answer:

f(x)+g(x)-h(x) = 3x² + 6x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x + 5

g(x) = 4x² - 2

h(x) = x² - 3x + 1

f(x)+g(x)-h(x) means subtract h(x) from the sum of f(x) and h(x)

f(x)+g(x)-h(x) = 3x + 5 +( 4x² - 2) - (x² - 3x + 1)

Remove the brackets

That's

f(x)+g(x)-h(x) = 3x + 5 + 4x² - 2 - x² + 3x - 1

Group like terms

We have

f(x)+g(x)-h(x) = 4x² - x² + 3x + 3x + 5 - 2 - 1
