Answer:

0.611

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to get the total of people who answered the question in the poll.

In this case:

84(yes) + 73(no) = 157 people

With this we can know the probability of the people who only answered yes in the question, which is:

84/157

Now, we need to know the number of these people, who were male, regardless of his answer.

14 said yes and 12 said no, so: 14 + 12 = 26

the probability of this is: 26/157

Now from this group, only 14 said yes and were male so:

14/157

Finally to get the probability of choose a person that answered yes or was male is:

P = P(male) + P(yes) - P(male and said yes)

P = 84/157 + 26/157 - 14/157

P = 96/157 = 0.611464968 and rounded to the nearest thousandth it would be 0.611.

How do u solve <br> 1×-2y=4<br> -1×+10y=8
Molodets [167]

Answer: x = -8 ; y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

1*x-2*y=4

1*x = 4 + 2*y

x = 4 + 2*y

Now you replace the value of x on the following equation:

-1*x+10*y=8

-1*(4 + 2*y) = 8

-4 - 2*y = 8

-2*y = 8+4

-2*y = 12

y = -12/2

y = -6

You replace the value of y in the previous equation:

x = 4 + 2*y

x = 4 + 2*(-6)

x = 4 - 12

x = -8
