The radioactive compound 14CO2 may be used as a tracer to study metabolism in plants. Suppose that a compound isolated from a plant exhibited 28, 32, 27, 39 and 40 counts of radioactive decays per minute. A blank sample used to measure the background counts of the radiation counter gave 28,21, 28 and 20 counts per minute. It appears that the isolated compound gives more counts than those from background. Can we be 95% confident that the compound is indeed radioactive?

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18

chicken nugget stir fry

step-by-step explanation:

it will cost dollar $540

the living room is 3 which means if we divide 325/3 then we get $108

therefore if 1part of the living room cost $108 and 3 costed $325

then total 5part of the room will cost 5*108 which gives $540
