The solutions to the given system of equations are x = 4 and y = -9

<h3>Simultaneous linear equations</h3>

From the question, we are to determine the solutions to the given system of equations

The given system of equations are

-8x-4y=4  --------- (1)

-5x-y=-11   --------- (2)

Multiply equation (2) by 4

4 ×[-5x-y=-11 ]

-20x -4y = -44  -------- (3)

Now, subtract equation (3) from equation (1)

-8x -4y = 4  --------- (1)

-(-20x -4y = -44)  -------- (3)

12x = 48

x = 48/12

x = 4

Substitute the value of x into equation (2)

-5x -y = -11

-5(4) -y = -11

-20 -y = -11

-y = -11 + 20

-y = 9

∴ y = -9

Hence, the solutions to the given system of equations are x = 4 and y = -9

For for every ten sheets of stickers you buy at a craft store the total cost increases $20.50
Len [333]

The equation which relates the change in price per sticker purchased is y = 2.05x

  • The number of stickers purchased = 10

  • Price change = $20.50

The change in price per sticker purchased can be expressed as :

  • Price change / number of stickers

  • Change in price per sticker = $20.50 / 10

  • Change in price per sticker purchased = 2.05

Therefore, the required equation which related y and x is :

y = 2.05x

ANHL player's labor negotiating committee is to be selected from 8 player representatives from the Eastern Conference and 7 play
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

21 / 143

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of Eastern conference reps = 8

Number of western conference rep = 7

Probability of selecting 3 from Eastern reps and 2 from western reps

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Total possible outcomes:

selection to be made = 3+ 2 = 5

Total Number of players = 8 +7 = 15

Total possible outcomes

Using combination formula :

nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!

15C5 = 15! / 10!5! = (15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11) / (5*4'3*2*1) = 360360 / 120 = 3003

Total possible outcomes = 3003

Required outcome :

8C3 * 7C2

8C3 = 56 ; 7C2 = 21

8C3 * 7C2 = 56 * 21 = 1176

required outcome / Total possible outcomes

= 1176 / 3003

= 21 / 143
