Answer: The first equation should be multiplied by 9 and the second equation by −4, to eliminate the y-terms and solve for x in the fewest steps.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Equation (1) 5x − 4y = 28

Equation (2) 3x - 9y = 30

to eliminate the y-terms and solve for x in the fewest steps, we should multiply  equation (1) by 9 and equation (2) by -4 such that

9(5x − 4y) =9 (28)⇒45x-36y=252

-4(3x - 9y) = -4(30)⇒ -12x+36y= -120

Now adding both equations, y-term eliminated and we get, 45x-12x=132

⇒33x=132⇒x=4.

Which statement is true about a trend line? A regression line and a trend line are opposite terms. A regression line and trend l
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

A is incorrect!  <u>B. should be the correct answer</u>

Step-by-step explanation

After some research, i found that the correct answer is most likely <u><em>B.  a regression line and trend line are equivalent terms</em></u>

<em />

<em>A trendline and a regression can be the same. </em>

<em> A regression line is based upon the best fitting curve Y= a + bX Most often it’s a least-squares fit (where the squared distances from the points to the line (along the Y-axis) is minimized). </em>

<em> It can be quadratic or logistic or otherwise, but most often it is linear. </em>

<em> A trendline is often constructed by smoothing of the results, making it less peaked. (often by using a moving average); but can also come from ARIMA projections or curve fitting techniques (such as regression).</em>

<em />

Let me know if i helped you!

A shipment of ball bearings with a mean diameter of 25 mm and a standard deviation of 0.2 mm is normally distributed. By how man
Svetach [21]
You need to calculate how many times the required difference is of the standard deviation, i.e. the ratio difference / standard deviation.


These are the calculations:


Standard deviation = 0.2 mm


Difference between 25.6mm and the mean = 25.6mm - 25mm = 0.6 mm


Ratio difference / standard deviation = 0.6mm / 0.2 mm = 3.


Then, the answer is that a ball with a diameter of 25.6 mm differs 3 standard deviations from the mean.

$5000 was invested into an investment that pays 4.25% simple interest. The total value of the investment amounted to $6593.75. H
Basile [38]

Answer:

7.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

P = $5000,

R = 4.25%,

A = $6593.75,

N =?

SI = A - P = 6593.75 - 5000 =$1593. 75

\because \: SI = \frac{ PNR}{100} \\  \\  \therefore \: 1593.75 =  \frac{5000 \times N \times 4.25}{100}  \\  \\  \therefore \: 1593.75 \times 100 = 21,250 \times N \\  \\ N =  \frac{159375}{21250}  \\  \\ N = 7.5 \: years \:

Bill wants to rent a car. Rental company A charges $35 per day plus $0.10 per mile driven. Rental company B charges $25 per day
Llana [10]
35 + 0.10m = 25 + 0.15m
35 - 25 = 0.15m - 0.10m
10 = 0.05m
10 / 0.05 = m
200 = m.....the price will be the same at 200 miles...they will both cost : $ 55
