Which of the following best describes the solution of the system of equations below?

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x + y = -3..... (equ 1)

9x - y = 3.....(equ2)

y = 8x - 3

-y = -9x + 3(divide both sides by -1*)

hence ..y = 9x - 3

then write y = y in terms of x

which will give you 8x - 3 = 9x - 3

and solve for x which will be N/A

Answer:

  y = 3/4x -7/4  or  y = 0.75x -1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The two point form of the equation of a line is useful when you are given 2 points and asked for the equation.

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)·(x -x1) +y1

  y = (35 -14)/(49 -21)·(x -21) +14 . . . . . . fill in given points

  y = 21/28(x -21) +14 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify a bit

  y = 3/4(x -21) +14 . . . . . . . . . . . reduce the fraction

  y = 3/4x -15 3/4 +14 . . . . . . . .eliminate parentheses

  y = 3/4x -7/4  or  y = 0.75x -1.75

What is the scale factor?

Answers

Answer:

Is the dilation an enlargement or reduction?

Reduction

The point of dilation is about what coordinate?

0,0

What is the scale factor?

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The dilation is a reduction. The point of dilation is about coordinate (0,0).  The scale factor is 1/3.

What is a transformation?

A point is transformed when it is moved from where it was originally to a new location. Translation, rotation, reflection, and dilation are examples of different transformations.

On a coordinate plane, the pre-image rectangle has points (0, 0), (6, 0), (6, -3), and (0, -3).

The image has points (0, 0), (2, 0), (2, -1), and (0, -1).

The required figure has been attached below which represents the dilation.

As we can see that the dilation is a reduction.

The point of dilation is about coordinate (0,0).

This result of dilating a given triangle with a scale factor is 1/3.

Las edades de cuatro hermanos forman una progresión aritmética, y su suma es 32 años. El mayor tiene 6 años más que el menor. Halla las edades de los cuatro hermanos.

Answers

Answer:

The ages of the four siblings are: 5, 7, 9 and 11 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the age of the four siblings is shown below:

Given that

n = 4

a1 =? a2 =? a3 =? a4 =?

a4 = a1 + 6 years

S4 = 32

Based on the above information

As we know that

Sn = (a1 + a4) ×  n ÷ 2

S4 = (a1 + a4) × 4 ÷ 2

32 = (a1 + a1 +6) × 2

16 = 2a1 + 6

 2a1 = 10

 a1 = 10 ÷ 2

= 5

So,  a4 = a1 +6

= 5 +6

= 11

a4 = a1 + (4-1) × d

11 = 5 + 3 × d

d = 6 ÷ 3

= 2

So,

a2 = a1 + d

= 5 + 2

= 7

a3 = a2 + d

= 7 + 2

= 9

Hence, The ages of the four siblings are: 5, 7, 9 and 11 years old.

Are the events "selecting a female" and "selecting a students who has brown eyes" independent?​

Answers

Answer:

No, the events are not independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that there are two events, A and B.

Such that first happens the event A and then the event B.

If the outcome of event A affects the probabilities for the different outcomes of event B, then the events are dependent.

In this case, if we have only the event "selecting a student who has brown eyes"  (at random)

The probability is equal to the quotient between the total number of students with brown eyes, and the total number of students, then this probability is:

P = 91/200 = 0.455...

Now, if we first impose the "selecting a female", now when we want to select a student with brown eyes we will look only at the female students.

In this case, there are 32 with brown eyes and a total of 90 female students, then the probability of selecting a female with brown eyes at random is:

P = 32/90 = 0.355...

So the probability is different, which means that the events "selecting a female" and "selecting a student who has brown eyes" are not independent.

Also since z is any number less than 1 1/4 then the number line goes towards negative infinity.
