Two consecutive whole numbers are n-1 and n

Mathematics
1 answer:
Orlov [11]1 year ago
5 0

a. n-(n - 1) = 1

b. n( n - 1) = n² - n

c. (n - 1) + n = 2n - 1

d. (n - 1) + n = 2n - 1

<h3>Solution:</h3>

General Rule for Equation Solving

  • Remove parentheses and combine like terms to simplify each side of the equation.
  • To isolate the variable term on one side of the equation, use addition or subtraction.
  • To find the variable, use multiplication or division.

Given two consecutive numbers , (n - 1) , n

simplifying :

n - (n - 1)

= n -1(n - 1)

= n - n + 1

= 1

multiplying :

n( n -1)

= n² - n

simplifying :

(n-1) + n

= n - 1 + n

= 2n -1

by adding two numbers :

(n - 1) + n

= n -1 + n

= 2n - 1

In an election, the population consists of the people who voted. Although there is overall data on how the population voted, the
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Answer:

P(A) = 0.39

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

P(W|A) = 0.7

P(W|A^c ) = 0.3

We are told that 60% of the respondents said they voted for A. Thus;

P(A|W) = 60% = 0.6

Now, using the principle of drawing lots, we can be able to find the probability of the event that they are willing to participate in the exit poll which is P(W).

Thus;

P(W) = [P(W|A) × P(A)] +[P(W∣A^c) × P(A^c)]

Now, P(A^c) can be expressed as 1 - P(A)

Thus, we now have;

P(W) = [P(W|A) × P(A)] + [P(W∣A^c) × (1 - P(A)]

Plugging in the relevant values gives;

P(W) = 0.7P(A) + 0.3(1 - P(A))

P(W) = 0.7P(A) + 0.3 - 0.3P(A)

P(W) = 0.3 + 0.4P(A)

Now,using Baye's theorem, we can find an expression for P(A|W)

Thus;

P(A|W) = [P(A ∩ W)]/P(W)

This can be further expressed as;

P(A|W) = [P(A) × P(W|A)]/P(W)

Plugging in relevant values, we have;

0.6 = 0.7P(A)/(0.3 + 0.4P(A))

Cross multiply to get;

0.6(0.3 + 0.4P(A)) = 0.7P(A)

0.18 + 0.24P(A) = 0.7P(A)

0.18 = 0.7P(A) - 0.24P(A)

0.46P(A) = 0.18

P(A) = 0.18/0.46

P(A) = 0.39

BartSMP [9]

Answer:

x -y =4

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (1- -4)/(5 - 0)

    = (1+4)/(5-0)

   5/5

   = 1

Then we can use slope intercept form

The slope is 1 and the y intercept is -4

y = mx+b

y = 1x-4

We want it in standard form

Ax + By = C where A is a positive integer

Subtract x from each side

-x +y = -4

Multiply by -1

x -y =4
