X + y = 22
x = 3y + 2

3y + 2 + y = 22
4y + 2 = 22
4y = 22 - 2
4y = 20
y = 20/4
y = 5

x = 3y + 2 = 3(5) + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17

ur numbers are 5 and 17

Let the number be x.

Hence the other number is 2 + 3*x.

Their sum is 22;

x + 2 + 3x = 22

4x + 2 = 22

4x = 20

 Therefore, x = 5

[ 2 + 3x = 2 + 3*5 = 2+15 = 17 ]

Hence the two numbers are, 5 and 17.

Answer:

x=27

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a pyramid is L*W*H/3

We know all three, being x, x, and x/9

So after we plug those in, we see that x^3/27 = 27

then solving for x we get √27*27 which is 27

Sam rolled a die 75 times. On 39 of those rolls, he had a 6. Which statement is TRUE when the probabilities are compared?
svetlana [45]

Answer:

D)The experimental probability is greater than the theoretical probability

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

75 times a die is rolled out of 39 times it got 6

To Find :

Which statement is true?

Solution:

The theoretical probability is given by the ,

Pt=No.of favorable outcomes/Total outcomes

Here favorable is getting 6 on the die

so how many times we can get 6 =1 time

Total outcomes =6

Pt=1/6

Pt=0.1667

Now for

The experimental Probability ,

Pe=Number times that event occur /Total no of trails

Here 39 times we get 6 and total no trails are 75

Pe=39/75

Pe=0.52

Hence we can say that Pe>Pt.

Write the equation for a parabola with a focus at ( 7, 2) and a directrix at y = -2<br> y = ?
horrorfan [7]
A parabola with an equation, y2 = 4ax has its vertex at the origin and opens to the right.
It's not just the '4' that is important, it's '4a' that matters.
This type of parabola has a directrix at x = -a, and a focus at (a, 0). By writing the equation as it is, the position of the directrix and focus are readily identifiable.
For example, y2 = 2.4x doesn't say a great deal. Re-writing the equation of the parabola as y2 = 4*(0.6)x tells us immediately that the directrix is at x = -0.6 and the focus is at (0.6, 0)
