Answer:
25. (x, y) = (5, 11)
26. (x, y) = (-1, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Both equations are of the form y=( ), so you can set the expressions for y equal to each other. Or, you can subtract the equation with the smaller y-coefficient from the other one.
25.
x +6 = y = 2x +1 . . . . . equate expressions for y
5 = x . . . . . . . . . . . subtract x+1
y = 5+6 = 11 . . . . . using the first equation to find y
(x, y) = (5, 11)
__
26.
(y) -(y) = (3x +4) -(x+2) . . . . subtract the first equation from the second
0 = 2x +2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
0 = x + 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the x-coefficient
x = -1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract the constant
y = -1 +2 = 1 . . . . . . . . . use the first equation to find y
(x, y) = (-1, 1)
_____
Of course, when we say "subtract ..." or "divide ..." we mean that you should do the same operation to both sides of the equation. That way the equal sign remains valid. You can always use an expression or variable in place of its equal (this is the substitution property of equality).
The expression (x+1) that we subtract in problem 25 is the smaller x-term plus the constant on the opposite side of the equal sign. That way, we eliminate both the unwanted x-term and the unwanted constant. You can do these operations one at a time (and you were probably taught to do it that way). That is, subtract x; subtract 1.
For 26, the method of solution that puts both the variable and the constant on the same side of the equation and 0 on the other side has certain advantages. Subtracting one side of the equation from both sides (to make an expression equal to zero) will always work, regardless of the expressions involved. After simplification, you can divide by the coefficient of the variable to get the form x+constant=0, and the answer is always x = -constant. These simple instructions require no judgment. You may find it easier to choose to subtract the side with the smaller coefficient, so the result has a positive coefficient. That's not necessary, but it can reduce anxiety and errors.
Answer:
5F = -15C ( 1F=-17.2222222)
The highest temperature on a winter day of 5°F is equivalent to -15°C. This is derived by using the formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius: C = (5/9)*(F - 32). Therefore, the temperature in Celsius is -15°C.
The problem is asking for the conversion of temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius. The formula to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is C = (5/9)*(F - 32). Let's use it to solve the question.
Given that the Fahrenheit (F) temperature is 5°F, the Celsius (C) temperature would be calculated as: C = (5/9)*(5 - 32), resulting in a Celsius temperature of about -15°C. This means that 5°F is equivalent to -15°C.

Answer with explanation:
When you toss a coin once , total possible outcome =2={H, T}
When you toss a coin twice , total possible outcome =2²=4={HT,TH,T T,H H}
When you toss a coin thrice , total possible outcome =2³=8
={T T T,T TH, T HT,H T T,H HT,H TH,T H H,H H H}
When you toss a coin 4 times , total possible outcome
={T T T T, T T TH, H T T T,T H T T,T T HT,T T H H,H H T T,T H HT,H T TH,H TH T,T H TH, H H HT,H T H H,TH H H,H H TH,H H H H}
=16
There are 16 possible outcomes in all.
So, total number of leaves needed on the tree Diagram = 16 Leaves
Answer:
9 years 4 months
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how long it will take for Allie's initial deposit of $300to grow to $995 in a savings account with a 13% annual interest rate compounded quarterly, we can use the compound interest formula:
In this case:
Substitute the values into the formula and solve for t:
Simplify the expression inside the bracket:
Divide both sides of the equation by 300:
Take natural logs (ln) of both sides of the equation:
Divide both sides of the equation by 4ln(1.0325) to isolate t:
Evaluate using a calculator:
Therefore, it will take 9.37 years for the balance to grow to $995.00.
To determine the number of months, subtract 9 from the value of t and multiply by 12:
Therefore, it will take 9 years and 4 months (rounded to the nearest month) for the balance to grow to $995.00.
Additional comments
In the case of quarterly compounding, the interest is calculated and added to the account balance every three months (once every quarter). So, even though it will take 9 years and 4 months for the balance to reach $995.00, Allie's account will not show this exact amount at that specific time. It will show a balance of $979.61 at 9 years and 3 months, and a balance of $1,011.45 at 9 years and 6 months, so technically, the account balance will still show as $979.61 at 9 years and 4 months.
Answer:
9 years and 4 months
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to calculate the number of years and months it will take for Allie's savings account balance to grow to $995.00, we can use the following compound interest formula:
where:
We can use the following values for the variables in the formula:
P = $300.00
r = 13% = 0.13
n = 4 (compounding quarterly)
A = $995.00
Substituting value, we get
In order to solve the exponential equation, we can take the natural log of both sides:
Using the properties of logarithms, we can bring the exponent down in front of the log:
Dividing both sides by ln(1.0325), we get:
Evaluating this expression, we get:
In the nearest hundred:
Therefore, year = 9 year
month = 37% of 12 = 4.44≈ 4 month
So, it will take Allie 9 years and 4 months for her savings account balance to grow to $995.00.
Answer:
The correct answer is:
The customers spend more than the national average in his store
Step-by-step explanation:
The national average is $150.00 with a standard deviation of $30.20.
Sample size n =40
H0: x bar = mu
Ha: x bar >mu
(one tailed test for a single mean)
Sample average x bar = 160
Mean difference = 160-150 =10
std error = 30.20/sqrt 40
=4.775
Test statistic = 2.094
Z critical for 2.5% = 1.96 (one tailed)
Since test statistic > z critical we reject null hypothesis.
Hence the correct answer is:
The customers spend more than the national average in his store.
Answer:
Option A) The customers spend more than the national average in his store.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Population mean, μ = $150.00
Sample mean, = $160
Sample size, n = 40
Alpha, α = 0.025
Population standard deviation, σ = $30.20
First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis
The null hypothesis states that the consumers are spending equal to the national average. The alternative hypothesis states that consumers are spending more than the national average.
We use One-tailed z test to perform this hypothesis.
Formula:
Putting all the values, we have
Now,
Since,
We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, the customers spend more than the national average in his store.
Thus, option A) is a valid conclusion for the manager
