3. a wildlife refuge in south america has howler monkeys and spider monkeys. a biologist working there randomly selected eight adults of each type of monkey, weighed them, and recorded their weights in pounds.
howler monkey: {15, 16, 17, 17, 17, 17, 18, 19}
spider monkey: {12, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 16, 16}
(a) calculate the mean and mad for each type of monkey.
(b) calculate the means-to-mad ratio for the two types of monkeys.
(c) what inference can be made about the weight of both types of monkeys? explain.

(0,-3) see attached graph

step-by-step explanation:

a. to solve the system, graph the two equations.

x = y+3 becomes y=x-3 has m=1/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move up 1 unit and 1 unit to the right. plot a point and connect.

y=-4x+3 has m =-4/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move down four units and to the right 1 unit. plot a point and connect.

the solution is the point (x,y) where the two lines intersect. by the graph below it is (0,-3).

b. to solve by substitution, substitute y = -4x-3 into x= y+3

x= (-4x-3) +3

x=-4x

5x=0

x=0

now substitute x = 0 back in to find y.

y= -4(0)-3

y=0-3

y=-3

solution is (0,-3)

c. use elimination by adding the equations together.

x-y=3

4x+y=-3

5x=0

x=0

then substitute into one equation to find y.

y=-4(0)-3

y=-3

answer: i guess 105 degrees?
