Solve the problems using systems of equations.

Mathematics
1 answer:
maw [93]2 years ago
5 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y

x+y =5 ---1

x-y =-3 ---2

Rearrange equation 1

x =5-y

Substitute x in the second equation

(5-y)-y =-3

5-y-y =-3

5-2y =-3

Collect like terms

5+3 = 2y

8 = 2y

Divide both sides by the coefficient of y (2)

8/2 = 2y/2

4 = y

y= 4

Substitute y in equation 1

x+4 =5

Subtract 4 from both sides

x+4-4 = 5-4

x+0 = 1

x= 1

The two numbers are 1 and 4

13. A bag contains 8 red marbles, 4 purple marbles, 5 green marbles, 2 orange, and 1 blue
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

a) 9 / 200

b) 13 / 100

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The two events are independent because they do not depend each other since the marbles are replaced. To find the total probability of two independent events, you multiply the probability of each event together.

Probability is represented by the amount of desirable outcomes over the total number of outcomes. The total would be the number of marbles, which is: 8 + 4 + 5 + 2 + 1 = 20 outcomes. The number of orange marbles is 2, so the outcomes where you do not pick orange are 20 - 2 or 18 outcomes. The probability of not picking an orange marble would be 18 / 20 or 9 / 10 (using the formula for probability).

There is one outcome where we can pick a blue marble, so the probability of picking a blue marble is 1 / 20. Now, we need to multiply the probabilities for each event: 1 / 20 * 9 / 10  = 9 / 200

b)There are 5 green marbles and 8 red marbles, so the the total outcomes where you pick green or red is 13. We put that over our total to get 13 / 20.

There are 4 purple marbles, so the probability of picking purple is 4 / 20 or 1 / 5. Now we multiply the two probabilities to get the total probability: 1 / 5 * 13 / 20 = 13 / 100

Can someone help me ASAP, please?

When x = -1,
  y = 12⁻¹ = 1/12 = 0.0833
When x= 0,
  y = 12⁰ = 1 = 0.0833*12
When x = 1
  y = 12¹ = 12 = 1*12
When x = 2,
  y = 12² = 144 = 12*12
When x = 3,
  y = 12³ = 1728 = 144*12

The rule is to multiply the previous value of y by 12 as x increases by 1.

Answer: Multiply by 12
The second choice is the correct answer.

(a) Using the table, give the values fo rthe inverse

1) original table of values:

x      1     2     3    4    5

f(x)   0     1     1    5    3


2) The inverse of the function is obtained by exchanging x and f(x), this is:

                   ( x, f(x) ) → ( f(x), x)

3) So, the table of values of the inverse of the given function is:

x          0    1     1      5     3

f⁻¹ (x)   0     1     2     3     4

(b) Is the inverse a function.

No, the inverse is not a function, since the table of the inverse shows that the x -value 1 has two different images.

This ambigüity is opposite to the definition of a function, which requires that any input value has only one output. For that reason, the inverse is not a function. You cannot tell whether the image of 1 is 1 or 2, because both are images of the same value.
