The solutions of the equations are x = 1 and y = 2

The system of equations are

4x + 3y = 10

-4x + 5y = 6

Here we have to use the elimination method. Eliminate the x term and find the value of y term

Add both equation

3y + 5y = 10 +6

Add the like terms

8y = 16

y = 16 / 8

Divide the terms

y = 2

Substitute the value of x in the first equation

4x + 3y = 10

4x + 3×2 = 10

Multiply the terms

4x + 6 = 10

4x = 10 - 6

4x = 4

x = 4 / 4

Divide the terms

x = 1

Hence, the solutions of the equations are x = 1 and y = 2

brilliants [131]

The formula for volume is l x w x h.

To find the missing link, we do the equation backwards.

l x 2.5 x 5 = 75

If we divide 75 by 5 then by 2.5, we get 6 which becomes our length.

To check, do 5 x 2.5 x 6 which should equal 75

6 is your length

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

a. 0.52 = 52% probability that Linda gives the correct answer to a question.

b. 0.7692 = 76.92% probability that Linda knows the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Supplies the correct answer:

Event B: Knows the answer

A. What is the probability that Linda gives the correct answer to a question?

0.4(knows the answer)

1/5 = 0.2 of 1 - 0.4 = 0.6(guesses the answer). So

$P(A) = 0.4 + 0.2*0.6 = 0.52$

0.52 = 52% probability that Linda gives the correct answer to a question.

B. What is the conditional probability that Linda knows the answer, given that she supplies the correct answer?

Intersection of events A and B is knowing the answer and giving the correct answer, which means that $P(A \cap B) = 0.4$

The desired probability is:

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.4}{0.52} = 0.7692$

0.7692 = 76.92% probability that Linda knows the answer
