<span>60 patients x 40 % = 24 and 80 patients x 30 % = 24. So 24 + 24 = 48</span>

The total number of patients experienced unwanted side effects is 48

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

60 patients are given drug A and drug A has unwanted side effects in 40% of the cases.

So, the number of patients experienced side effects for drug A = 40% of 60 =(0.40*60)= 24

Now 80 patients are given drug B and it has side effects in 30% of the cases.

So, the number of patients experienced side effects for drug B = 30% of 80 =(0.30*80)= 24

So, the total number of patients experienced unwanted side effects = 24+24 =48

Solve the following system: y = x 3 4x y = 18 (6, 3) (3, 6) (â’3, 6) (3, â’6).
Nastasia [14]

The solution of the given equation is (3,6). The correct option is B.(3,6)

<h3>Given equations,</h3>

y=x+3.......(1)\\4x+y=18.....(2)

<h3>How to solve the equations?</h3>

putting the value of y from equation (1) in equation (2) , we get

4x+x+3=18\\5x=18-3\\5x=15\\x=3

substitute the value of x=3 in equation (1) we get,

y=3+3\\y=6

Hence, the solution of given equation is (3,6).

So, the correct option is B.

 5/4=y−1/4<br><br>y=_____<br>What is the answer?
Nat2105 [25]

In this equation, you are solving for y. Simply isolate the variable by adding 1/4 to each side. The -1/4 and 1/4 will cancel out on the right side of the equation, leaving only y:


5/4 = y - 1/4


5/4 + 1/4 = y - 1/4 + 1/4


6/4 = y


y = 6/4


Don't forget to simplify y:


y = 3/2
