Answer:

.56

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of a certain event always adds up to 1. Like if you are flipping a coin, 1/2 chance tails + 1/2 chance heads = 1. The coin can't do anything else than tails and heads.

In this case, either Ricky or Nicky is absolutely guaranteed to win the game.

So the probability Nicky wins is

1 - .44 = .56

X - y= -4 -2x +3y =6
STatiana [176]

Answer:

<em><u>x=-6, y=-2</u></em>, (As a point) (-6, -2).....The point form is not necessary unless you want to solve the system (of equations) by graphing.

Step-by-step explanation:

By substitution:

x-y=-4    By adding y on both sides,

x=y-4

Now you can substitute x for the expression (y-4)

Plug the (y-4) as x in the other equation.

So -2x+3y=6 becomes

-2(y-4)+3y=6

Now solve:

-2(y-4)+3y=6 distributes out to be

-2y+8+3y=6     Now combining like terms

y+8=6              Subtract 8 on both sides to isolate the variable

<u><em>y=-2</em></u>

Now plug the value -2 in where the y is in any equation (preferably the easier/less complicated one) and solve for x.

So x-y=-4 becomes

x-(-2)=-4

=x+2=-4

=<u><em>x=-6</em></u>

Given f z please help
Softa [21]

Answer:

z = -11, z = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, (f(z)=\sqrt{z+27} -z) and (f(z)=7), set up an equation that puts the first value of (f(z)) equal to the other given value of the function.

f(z)=\sqrt{z+27}-z=7

Use inverse operations to solve,

\sqrt{z+27}-z=7\\\\\sqrt{z-27}=7+z\\\\z+27 = (7+z)^2\\\\z + 27 = 49+14z+z^2\\ -(27+z)\\\\0 = z^2+13z+22

Factor,

0=(z+11)(z+2)

Solve using the zero product property, the zero product property states that any number times zero equals zero;

z=-11,z=-2

What is the absolute value
Masteriza [31]
The absolute value is the magnitude of a number. In other words, how far from 0 it is. All the does is make the number positive, but since 11/4 is already positive, the answer is just 11/4.
