4a=5b+5 2a=3b+2. solve using the method of elimination
please help !*​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a = 2.5, b = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

4a = 5b + 5 → (1)

2a = 3b + 2 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by - 2 and adding the result to (1) will eliminate a

- 4a = - 6b - 4 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate a

0 = - b + 1 ( add b to both sides )

b = 1

Substitute b = 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for a

Substituting into (2)

2a = 3(1) + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a = 2.5

Answer 2

Answer:

a = 2.5

b = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

4a = 5b + 5 and 2a = 3b + 2

→ Multiply the second equation by 2

4a = 6b + 4

→ Subtract this new equation from the first one

0 = b - 1

→ Find b by adding 1 on both sides

b = 1

→ Substitute b into one of the equation

4a = ( 5 × 1 ) + 5

→ Simplify

4a = 10

→ Divide both sides by 4

a = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]a_n=(-3)*a_{n-1}\\a_1=-3\\Answer\ A[/tex]

Option A is correct -

[tex]f(n)=\left \{ {{f(1)=-3} \atop {f(n)=-3f(n-1)\;\;n > 1}} \right.[/tex]

We have a sequence : –3, 9, –27, 81, . . . .

What is the formula to find the recursive of a Geometric sequence?

The formula to find the recursive of geometric sequence is -

[tex]a_{n} =ra_{n-1} \;\;\;\;for\;n\geq 2[/tex]

We have the following sequence -

–3, 9, –27, 81, . . . .

First let's see if it is a geometric sequence or not. For a sequence to be a geometric sequence -

[tex]\frac{9}{-3} =\frac{-27}{9} =\frac{81}{-27}= -3=r[/tex]

Hence, it is a geometric sequence with r = -3.

Substituting the value of r in the formula of recursive, we get -

[tex]a_{n} = -3a_{n-1}[/tex]    and      [tex]a(1)=-3[/tex]

Hence, Option A is correct.

Determine the probability (as a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth) of a normal random variable with a mean of three and a standard deviation of four realizing a value that is strictly greater than 1.9

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

On a normal distribution table with z scores of 0 as the mean and the standard deviations going to the right and to the left, 1.9 on the normal curve where 3 is the mean falls at -.275 on the normal curve where 0 is the mean. I used the normal distribution z table for negative values to get that .39165 lies to the left of -.275, which means that 1 - .39165 of the data lies to the right.

The probability that the value is greater than 1.9 is .60835, or as a percentage, 60.835%.

Answers:first box = 0 second box = 0 third box = 4fourth box = -3

It's not a typo that 0 is written twice.

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

Explanation:

This is considered a step function because it resembles steps or a staircase. The vertical pieces aren't drawn to allow it to remain a function (or else it fails the vertical line test). Also there should be open holes at each left endpoint.

Recall that any horizontal line has a slope of 0 due to the fact that the rise is 0

slope = rise/run

The rise takes care of the vertical change in position. But if the line doesn't go up or down, then rise = 0 leads to slope = 0.

In short, the slope of each horizontal portion is 0. It doesn't matter which sub-section you focus on.

This is why you'll type 0 into the first two boxes.

------------------

As for the remaining two boxes, you'll be looking where the graph is the highest and the lowest to determine the max and min y values respectively.

We see that y peaks at y = 4 at the very top. So you'll type 4 into the third box.

Furthermore, we see that the lowest part of the graph is when y = -3. Therefore, this is the minimum aka smallest y value and you'll type -3 into the fourth box.

Answers

Answer:

Mary wants to buy flowers and perfume. She has $13.50 to spend, but has already spent $12 on perfume. How much does she have left to spend on flowers?

Step-by-step explanation:

12 + c = 13.50

OpruonnA seems to be the best, hence, Breaking down in real world terms :

13.50 = total cost

Number of variables added to make up total cost = 2 ; this represents the cost of the 2 items purchased ; flowers and perfume

Cost of perfume = 12

Cost of flowers = c

Total cost of items = $13.50

Two supplementary angles measure (7x + 11) and (14x + 1)º. What is
the measure of the smaller angle?
(1) 40.5°
(2) 67°
(3) 108°
(4) 123°

Answers

Answer:

67 degrees (Answer 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

These two angles must sum up to 180 degreess because they are supplementary.  Then:

7x + 11 + 14x + 1 = 180, or

21x + 12 = 180, or

21x = 168

Solving for x, we divide both sides by 21.  This results in x = 8.

The measure of the smaller angle is 7x + 11, which here is 7(8) + 11 = 67 degrees (Answer 2).

Answers

The answer is c!!! I think???

Answer:  C.  V = (area of the base)(height)

This applies to any prism. A cylinder is effectively a prism but the base is a circle rather than a polygon.

The cylindrical volume formula you may be more familiar with is

V = pi*r^2*h

note how the pi*r^2 portion is the area of the circular base. So we can replace the pi*r^2 with "area of the base" to end up with choice C.

O No answer text provided.

Answers

Answer:

The width of the confidence interval based on the 784 women would be narrower than the  confidence interval based on the 327 women.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

From this, we have that the margin of error, and also the width, is inversely proportional to the sample size, that is, a larger sample size leads to a smaller margin of error and a narrower interval.

How would the width of the new confidence interval compare to the width of the  confidence interval based on the 327 women in the armed forces?

New interval: 784

Old interval: 327

Sample size increased, so the new interval will be narrower, and the correct answer is:

The width of the confidence interval based on the 784 women would be narrower than the  confidence interval based on the 327 women.

Commission of d% amounts to 600 the selling price in dollers will be

What are Selling price, Cost price, Profit &Loss ?

The price of an item which i have sold to someone is my selling price and for the person it is his/her cost price.

When my selling price is more than my cost price I make profit.

When my selling price is less than my cost price i make loss.

In the given question d% of commision amounts to 600$. Let us assume d% = 10 % for easy understanding.

[tex]\frac{percentage}{100}[/tex] * selling price = 600

[tex]\frac{d}{100}[/tex] * selling price = 600
