The system of equations can be solved using linear combination to eliminate one of the variables. 2x − y = −4→10x − 5y = −20 3x

5y = 59→3x 5y = 59 13x = 39 which equation can replace 3x 5y = 59 in the original system and still produce the same solution? 2x – y = –4 10x – 5y = –20 7x = 39 13x = 39

The correct choice is option D. The given equations are:...[1]...[2] Multiply equation [1] by 5 on both sides; we have...[3]. By using the elimination method, we can add equations [2] and [3] to eliminate y and determine x, resulting in... Dividing both sides by 13 yields x = 3. Substituting x back into equation [1] results in 2(3) - y = -4, which simplifies to 6 - y = -4. After subtracting 6 from both sides, we find -y = -10. Dividing through by -1 gives y = 10. Hence, the solution is (3, 10). Consequently, a valid equation that can replace 3x + 5y = 59 in the original set while still yielding the same result is 13x = 39.

babunello [11817]

Response:

1. Closure

2. Distributive

3. Closure

Detailed explanation:

In this scenario, we are examining the properties that each equation demonstrates.

The first equation shows the closure property.

This indicates that whether we add in one direction or the other, the result remains unchanged. Therefore, we conclude that addition conforms to the closure property in this case.

The third equation also shows the closure property. Regardless of how we approach the addition for this equation, the outcome remains consistent.

The second equation displays the distributive property.

Each element within the parentheses is multiplied by the negative sign before we proceed with further calculations.

A batch of 20 semiconductor chips is inspected by choosing a sample of 3 chips. Assume 10 of the chips do not conform to custome
Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

To inspect a batch consisting of 20 semiconductor chips, a sample of 3 is selected. Out of these, 10 chips fail to meet customer specifications.

a) Total distinct samples possible = 20C3 =  \frac{20!}{3!(17!)} =1140

b) For exactly 2 good chips and 1 bad chip

Total samples = 10C2 * 10C1 = 45 * 10 =450

c) Combinations of 2 good 1 bad, 1 good 2 bad, and 3 bad chips

Total samples = 10C2 * 10C1 + 10C1 * 10C2 + 10C3

= 450+450+120=1020

Use the normal approximation to the binomial distribution to answer this question. Fifteen percent of all students at a large un
AnnZ [12381]

Answer: 0.1289

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The proportion of students absent on Mondays at a large university.: p=0.15

Sample size: n=12

Mean: \mu=np=12\times0.15=1.8

Standard deviation = \sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}

\Rightarrow\ \sigma=\sqrt{12(0.15)(1-0.15)}=1.23693168769\approx1.2369

Let x represent a binomial variable.

Referencing the standard normal distribution table,

P(x=4)=P(x\leq4)-P(x\leq3) (1)

Z score for normal distribution:-

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For x=4

z=\dfrac{4-1.8}{1.2369}\approx1.78

For x=3

z=\dfrac{3-1.8}{1.2369}\approx0.97

Thus, from (1)

P(x=4)=P(z\leq1.78)-P(z\leq0.97)\\\\=0.962462-0.8339768\approx0.1289

Consequently, the likelihood of four students being absent = 0.1289

lawyer [12517]

Answer: The most significant angle created during his journey appears at the mall, between his house and the library.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since this scenario forms a right triangle (refer to the attached image), the angle between his house and the library measures 90°.

For a right triangle, the total of its internal angles equals 180°, making the right angle (90°) the largest among them.

Thus, the angle at the mall, between his house and the library, is indeed the largest angle formed during his trip.
