Answer:\Large\boxed{x=12~;~y=18}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given a system of equations</u>

1)~\frac{x}{y} =\frac{2}{3}

2)~\frac{y}{24} =\frac{3}{4}

<u>Multiply 24 on both sides of 2) equation to isolate y-value</u>

\frac{y}{24}\times24 =\frac{3}{4}\times24

\Large\boxed{y=18}

<u>Substitute the y-value into the 1) equation</u>

\frac{x}{18} =\frac{2}{3}

<u>Multiply 18 on both sides of 1) equation to isolate y-value</u>

\frac{x}{18}\times18 =\frac{2}{3}\times18

\Large\boxed{x=12}

Hope this helps!! :)

A. False

Pr(\text{red shirt}|\text{large shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number red large shirts}}{\text{number large shirts}}=\dfrac{42}{77}=\dfrac{6}{11}\\ \\Pr(\text{large shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number large shirts}}{\text{number shirts}}=\dfrac{77}{165}=\dfrac{7}{15}

B. True

Pr(\text{blue shirt}|\text{large shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number blue large shirts}}{\text{number large shirts}}=\dfrac{35}{77}=\dfrac{5}{11}\\ \\Pr(\text{blue shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number blue shirts}}{\text{number shirts}}=\dfrac{75}{165}=\dfrac{5}{11}

C. False

Pr(\text{shirt is medium and blue})=\dfrac{\text{number medium and blue shirts}}{\text{number shirts}}=\dfrac{48}{165}=\dfrac{16}{55}\\ \\Pr(\text{medium shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number medium shirts}}{\text{number shirts}}=\dfrac{88}{165}=\dfrac{8}{15}

D. False

Pr(\text{large shirt}|\text{red shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number red large shirts}}{\text{number red shirts}}=\dfrac{42}{90}=\dfrac{7}{15}\\ \\Pr(\text{red shirt})=\dfrac{\text{number red shirts}}{\text{number shirts}}=\dfrac{90}{165}=\dfrac{6}{11}
