Answer: B. (-2,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to solve the system of equations:

y=1/2x+ 2  

y = -2x - 3

Multiplying the first equation by 4 and adding both equations:

4y = 2x +8

+

y = -2x - 3

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

5y = 5

y =5/5

y=1

Replacing the value of y in any equation:

y = -2x - 3

1 = -2x - 3

Solving for x:

2x =-3-1

2x=-4

x =-4/2

x =-2

So, the solution is  

x =-2; y = 1

The correct option is B. (-2,1)

Answer:

Option B) (-2,1) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are, y=1/2x+ 2   and   y = -2x - 3.

Let the point of intersection be <em>(a,b).</em>

Thus (a,b) satisfies both the equations.

b=1/2a+ 2

b = -2a - 3

subtracting both the equations we get,

(\frac{5}{2})(x) = -5

x = -2, now inserting this value in anyone of the equations,  

y = -2(-2) -3 = 4-3 = 1

Thus, the intersection point is (-2,1).

Another United States traveler arrives at a United States point of entry. He has purchased a Flat car abroad that cost him
mart [117]

Answer:

The duty he has to pay is  156.25$.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for foreign-made vehicles imported into the U.S., whether new or used, either for personal use or for sale, are generally dutiable at the following rates: Cars: 2.5%.

From task we know that the  Fiat car abroad that cost him $6,250.

We have the following proportion:

100:6250=2.5:x\\\\100x=2.5\cdot 6250\\\\100x=15625\\\\x=156.25\\

The duty he has to pay is  156.25$.

One of your peers claims that boys do better in math classes than girls. Together you run two independent simple random samples
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To test if boys are better in math classes than girls two random samples were taken:

Sample 1

X₁: score of a boy in calculus

n₁= 15

X[bar]₁= 82.3%

S₁= 5.6%

Sample 2

X₂: Score in the calculus of a girl

n₂= 12

X[bar]₂= 81.2%

S₂= 6.7%

To estimate per CI the difference between the mean percentage that boys obtained in calculus and the mean percentage that girls obtained in calculus, you need that both variables of interest come from normal populations.

To be able to use a pooled variance t-test you have to also assume that the population variances, although unknown, are equal.

Then you can calculate the interval as:

[(X[bar]_1-X[bar_2) ± t_{n_1+n_2-2;1-\alpha /2} * Sa*\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} }]

Sa= \sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1+(n_2-1)S^2_2}{n_1+n_2-2} } = \sqrt{\frac{14*(5.6^2)+11*(6.7^2)}{15+12-2} }= 6.108= 6.11

t_{n_1+n_2-2;1-\alpha /2}= t_{15+12-2;1-0.05}= t_{25;0.95}= 1.708

[(82.3-81.2) ± 1.708* (6.11*\sqrt{\frac{1}{15}+\frac{1}{12}  }]

[-2.94; 5.14]

Using a 90% confidence level you'd expect the interval [-2.94; 5.14] to contain the true value of the difference between the average percentage obtained in calculus by boys and the average percentage obtained in calculus by girls.

I hope this helps!
