5x-2y=9
12x-8y=4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(4,11/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-2y=9

12x-8y=4

A quick look will tell us that neither the x- nor the y- coefficient is the same in both equations, so combining the two by addition or subtraction. We can see that 2 is a multiple of 8, since 2 x 4 = 8. We should multiply the first equation by 4.

4(5x-2y=9)

Now we need to decide if we should add or subtract the equations.

20x-8y=36

12x-8y=4

Since we need to have a -8 and a +8 to eliminate the variables, we should subtract them. Change all the signs of the second equation and combine.

20x-8y=36

-12x-8y=4

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

8x=32

Divide both sides by 8 to get the x-value:

[tex]\frac{8x}{8} = \frac{32}{8}[/tex]

x=4

Now that we have our x-value, we need to plug in the y-value.

5x-2y=9

5(4)-2y=9

20-2y=9

-2y=-11

y=11/2

So our solution is (4,11/2)

Let's check our work.

5x-2y=9

5(4)-2(11/2)=9

20-22/2=9

20-11=9

9=9

12x-8y=4

12(4)-8(11/2)=4

48-88/2=4

48-44=4

4=4

Our solution is correct.

Answer 2

Answer:

x=4,y=11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x−2y=9

12x−8y=4

​In order to solve by elimination, coefficients of one of the variables must be the same in both equations so that the variable will cancel out when one equation is subtracted from the other.

5x−2y=9,12x−8y=4

To make 5x and 12x equal, multiply all terms on each side of the first equation by 12 and all terms on each side of the second by 5.

12×5x+12(−2)y=12×9,5×12x+5(−8)y=5×4

Simplify.

60x−24y=108,60x−40y=20

Subtract 60x−40y=20 from 60x−24y=108 by subtracting like terms on each side of the equal sign.

60x−60x−24y+40y=108−20

Add 60x to −60x. Terms 60x and −60x cancel out, leaving an equation with only one variable that can be solved.

−24y+40y=108−20

Add −24y to 40y.

16y=108−20

Add 108 to −20.

16y=88

Divide both sides by 16.

y=11/2

Substitute 11/2 for y in 12x−8y=4. Because the resulting equation contains only one variable, you can solve for x directly.

12x−8x11/2=4

Multiply −8 times 11/2.

12x−44=4

Add 44 to both sides of the equation.

12x=48

Divide both sides by 12.

x=4

The system is now solved.

x=4,y=11/2

Answers

Answer:

$434

Step-by-step explanation:

Gross Pay

$7.75 per hour40 hours per weekPay received every 2 weeks

⇒ Total gross pay = 7.75 × 40 × 2 = $620

Deductions

Medical insurance = 8%Taxes = 12%Retirement = 10%

⇒ Total deductions = 8% + 12% + 10% = 30%

Net Pay

Net Pay = Total Gross Pay - Total deductions

             = $620 - (30% of $620)

             = $620 - (0.3 × $620)

             = $620 - $186

             = $434

Therefore, Cory's net pay will be $434.

3. P343. 13. A sociologist is interested in surveying workers in computer-related jobs to estimate the proportion of such workers who has changed jobs within the past years. (a) In the absence of preliminary data, how large a sample must be taken to ensure that a 95% confidence interval will specify the proportion to within ±0.05? (b) In a sample of 100 workers, 20 of them had changed jobs within the past year. Find a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of workers who have changed jobs within the past year. (c) Based on the data in part (b), estimate the sample size needed so that the 95% confidence interval will specify the proportion to within ±0.05.

Answers

Answer:

a) A sample of 385 must be taken.

b) The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of workers who have changed jobs within the past year is (0.1216, 0.2784).

c) A sample of 246 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

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 zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

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

Absence of preliminary data:

This means that we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex], which is when the largest sample will be needed.

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

How large a sample must be taken to ensure that a 95% confidence interval will specify the proportion to within ±0.05?

A sample of n must be taken.

n is found when [tex]M = 0.05[/tex]. So

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

[tex]0.05 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 0.05

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 1.96*10[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (19.6)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 384.16[/tex]

Rounding up,

A sample of 385 must be taken.

Question b:

In a sample of 100 workers, 20 of them had changed jobs within the past year.

This means that [tex]n = 100, \pi = \frac{20}{100} = 0.2[/tex]

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{100}} = 0.1216[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{100}} = 0.2784[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of workers who have changed jobs within the past year is (0.1216, 0.2784).

Question c:

Same procedure as question a, just with [tex]\pi = 0.2[/tex]

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

[tex]0.05 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.2*0.8}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.2*0.8}}{0.05}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.2*0.8}}{0.05})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 245.8[/tex]

Rounding up

A sample of 246 is needed.

A retiree invests $7,000 in a savings plan that pays 7% per year. What will the account balance be at
the end of the first year?

Answers

Answer:

$6510

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing that should come to mind is: What is 7% of $7000?

Well, if you don't know how to find a percent of something, this is the formula you use:

7000 x 0.07 = 490.

In the first year, they will receive 490 out of the 7000 they've invested.

7000 - 490 = 6510.

Therefore, the account balance at the end of the first year will be 6510.

The account balance at the end of first year will be equal to $6510.

What do you mean by percentage ?

Percentage is the relative value indicating one hundredth part of any quantity.

It is given that a retiree invests $7000 in a savings plan which pays 7% per year.  So , it meant that we need to calculate that what is the value 7% of $7000.

So , 7% of $7000 is :

= 7000 × [tex]\frac{7}{100}[/tex]

= $490

It is known that this amount is paid as per plan per year. So, to find out the account balance at the end of the first year , we need to subtract the invested amount to the amount per year at 7%.

So , the account balance at the end of first year will be :

= 7000 - 490

= $6510

Therefore , the account balance at the end of first year will be equal to $6510.

substitute for x:

6((-2y - 3)/3) - 4y = 18

2(-2y - 3) - 4y = 18

(10.891; 15.869)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data::

15, 11, 19, 24, 6, 18, 20, 15, 18, 12, 14, 19, 5, 21, 12, 11, 8, 10, 7, 2, 14

The confidence interval is obtained using the relation :

Mean ± margin of error

Margin of Error = Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)

Using a calculator, the mean value of the data and standard deviation above is :

Mean = Σx / n ; n = sample size

Mean, xbar = 281 / 21

Mean = 13.38

Standard deviation , s = sqrt[Σ(X - xbar)²/ n-1]

Standard deviation, s = 5.82

Margin of Error = Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)

Zcritical at 95% confidence level = 1.96

Margin of Error = 1.96 * 5.82/sqrt(21) = 2.489

Confidence interval :

Mean ± margin of error

13.38 ± 2.489

Lower boundary = (13.38 - 2.489) = 10.891

Upper boundary = (13.38 + 2.489) = 15.869
