Solve both by elimination can someone help? 2x-5y=-9 , 4x+5y=12 3x-2y=12 , 7x-5y=17

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

x=1/2, y=2;

Step-by-step explanation:

First pair:

2x-5y =-9

4x+5y=12

Add them together:

6x=3

x = 1/2

2(1/2) - 5y =-9

1-5y = -9

1+9=5y

y=10/5=2

Fiona and Pip win some money and share it in the ratio 6:1. Fiona gets £35 more than Pip. How much did they get altogether?

Softa [21]

$\boxed{ \mathfrak { question↷}}$

Fiona and Pip win some money and share it in the ratio 6:1. Fiona gets £35 more than Pip. How much did they get altogether?

$\red{ \rule{35pt}{2pt}} \orange{ \rule{35pt}{2pt}} \color{yellow}{ \rule{35pt} {2pt}} \green{ \rule{35pt} {2pt}} \blue{ \rule{35pt} {2pt}} \purple{ \rule{35pt} {2pt}}$

$\boxed{ \mathfrak { solution↷}}$

Let Pip get be x and fiona get be x+35

Ratio = 6:1

$\tt \frac{x + 35}{x } = 6$

$\tt \: x + 35 = 6x$

$\tt \: 5x = 35$

$\tt \: x = 7$

$\boxed{ \sf \: Total \: money = x + x + 35 = 14+ 35 = £49}$

Evaluate the expression for the given value of the variable. |4b-8|+|-1-b^2|+2b^3;b=2

Elena-2011 [213]

In this question we already know the value of 'b' so put the value b=2 in the equation

=|4(2)-8| + |-1-(2)^2| + 2(2)^3

=|8-8| + |-1-4| + 2(8)

=0 -5 +16

=11

Each bag of Skittles is supposed to have at least 30 Skittles. A machine that fills bags has a 0.005 probability of under fillin

telo118 [61]

Answer:

The standard deviation for the number of bags that are underfilled is 2.236.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given interval. The variance is the same as the mean, which mean that the standard deviation is the square root of the mean.

In this question:

Expected number of underfilled bags in a sample of n bags is:

$\mu = 0.005*n$

1000 bags, so

$\mu = 0.005*1000 = 5$

Standard deviation $S = \sqrt{5} = 2.236$

The standard deviation for the number of bags that are underfilled is 2.236.

Find the simplified product: sqrt 2x^2 * sqrt18^5

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

1944x^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

sqrt 2x^2 * sqrt18^5

= sqrt2x^2 * (sqrt(9^5*2^5))

= sqrt 2 x^2 * (sqrt9^5 * sqrt 2^5)

= sqrt2 x^2 * (243* sqrt2^5)

= 2^0.5 (243 * 2^2.5) x^2

= 2^3 * 243 x^2

= 1944x^2.
