Answer:
(-6,8)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 9y = 60
-9x + y = 62 --> y = 9x + 62 --> 2x + 9(9x + 62) = 60 -->
2x+ 81x + 558 = 60 -->
83x + 558 = 60 -->
83x = -498 -->
x = -6 -->
y = 9(-6) + 62 -->
y = 8

The first step is to identify the order in which the equation must be solved, by following PEMDAS (you might know it as BEDMAS):
Parenthesis (or Brackets)
Exponents
Multiplication and Division
Addition and Subtraction
My advice would be to add parenthesis, following these rules, if you are not very good at finding them immediately by sight.
So:
![4 - 5 / 2 * (\frac{1}{10x}) = 1\\\\4 - [(5/2)*(\frac{1}{10x})]=1\\\\4-(2.5*\frac{1}{10x})=1\\\\4-\frac{2.5}{10x}-1=0\\3-\frac{x}{4}=0\\\frac{x}{4}=3\\x=3*4\\x=12](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=4%20-%205%20%2F%202%20%2A%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10x%7D%29%20%20%3D%201%5C%5C%5C%5C4%20-%20%5B%285%2F2%29%2A%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10x%7D%29%5D%3D1%5C%5C%5C%5C4-%282.5%2A%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B10x%7D%29%3D1%5C%5C%5C%5C4-%5Cfrac%7B2.5%7D%7B10x%7D-1%3D0%5C%5C3-%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B4%7D%3D0%5C%5C%5Cfrac%7Bx%7D%7B4%7D%3D3%5C%5Cx%3D3%2A4%5C%5Cx%3D12)

Answer:
Total possible ways to select 6 teachers from 34 teacher are
.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that total number of teachers at a school is 34.
The school director must randomly select 6 teachers to part in a training session.

Where, n is total possible outcomes and r is number of selected outcomes.
Total teachers = 34
Selected teachers =6
Total number of possible ways to select 6 teachers from 34 teacher is



Therefore total possible ways to select 6 teachers from 34 teacher are
.
Answer:
<em>Choose the first alternative</em>

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Probabilities</u>
The requested probability can be computed as the ratio between the number of ways to choose two sophomores in alternate positions
and the total number of possible choices
, i.e.

There are 6 sophomores and 14 freshmen to choose from each separate set. There are 20 students in total
We'll assume the positions of the selections are NOT significative, i.e. student A/student B is the same as student B/student A.
To choose 2 sophomores out of the 6 available, the first position has 6 elements to choose from, the second has now only 5

The total number of possible choices is

The probability is then

Choose the first alternative
