The probability that she picks two white socks is 0.0357

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Socks = 8

Black = 4

White = 2

Brown = 1

Red = 1

The probability of picking a white sock at first is:

P(White) = 2/8

Now, there are 7 socks left

The probability of picking a white sock next is

P(White) = 1/7

The required probability is:

P = 2/8 * 1/7

Evaluate

P = 0.0357

Hence, the probability that she picks two white socks is 0.0357

Solve the system of equations by substitution. What is the product of x and y from the solution? 2x + 3y = 12 5x − y = 13
Darina [25.2K]

2x + 3y = 12 (1st)

5x − y = 13 (2nd) ---> y = 5x - 13


Substitute y = 5x - 13 into (1st) equation


2x + 3(5x - 13) = 12

2x + 15x - 39 = 12

17x - 39 = 12

17x = 51

x = 3


substitute x = 7 into y = 5x - 13

y = 5x - 13

y = 5(3) - 13

y = 15 - 13

y = 2


Answer

solution x = 3 and y = 2
