Answer:
0.37
Step-by-step explanation:
we have given that emails arrives at the server at the rate of 10 per hour means 
per minute
we have to find the probability that the time difference between the two email is more than 2 minute
so probability 
Answer: e er
e er
Step-by-step explanation: e er
Let's call the two numbers 
and 
.
Given these variables, we can say: 
, based on the first sentence in the problem.
Also, remember that the reciprocal of a number is simply 1 divided by the number. Thus, we can say that:
To solve, we can simply substitute 
in for in the second equation and solve.
- Get terms on the left side to a common denominator for easier addition
- Cross multiplication (
)
- Subtract
from both sides of the equation
- Factor left side of the equation
Now, notice that we have found two solutions, but the problem is only asking for one. This <em>likely </em>means that one of our solutions is extraneous. Let's take a look. Remember that the smaller positive number is equal to 14 less than the larger number. However,
,
Since is not positive in this case, 
is not a solution.
Thus, 
is our only solution. In this case,
,
which means that the smaller number is 14 and the larger number is 28.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
<em>Identify</em>
y = -23(x + 9) + 4
y = 0
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: 0 = -23(x + 9) + 4
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 4 on both sides: -4 = -23(x + 9)
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide -23 on both sides: 4/23 = x + 9
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 9 on both sides: -203/23 = x
- Rewrite: x = -203/23
38/14= 2 10/14= 2 5/7
The answer is 2 5/7
