Answer:

x = 6 ; y = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

8 x + 2 y = 30  ..........equ No 1

7 x + 2 y = 24......... equ No 2

8 x = 30 - 2y

∴ x =\frac{ 30 - 2 y}{8}

substituting the value of x in equ No 2

7 \frac{30 - 2 y}{8} + 2 y = 24

7 ( 30 -2 y) + 2 y × 8 = 24 × 8

7 × 30 - 14 y + 16 y = 192

210 + 2 y = 192

2 y = 192 - 210

2 y = - 18

∴ y = - 9

put y = -9 , 8 x = 30 - 2 y

        8 x = 30 - 2 ( -9)

    8 x = 30 - ( -18)

  8 x = 48

∴ x = 6

x = 6 ; y = -9

expeople1 [14]

The probability that one of each color is selected is \frac{10x - x^2}{45}

<h3>Probabilities</h3>

The probability of an event is the chances of the said event

The given parameters are:

  • Total  = 10
  • Red = x
  • Blue = 10 - x

<h3>Calculating the required probability</h3>

The probability that one of each color is selected is calculated as follows:

P = P(Blue) \times P(Red) + P(Red) \times P(Blue)

So, we have:

P = \frac{10 - x}{10} \times \frac{x}{9} + \frac{x}{10} \times \frac{10 - x}{9}

This gives

P = \frac{x(10 - x)}{90} +\frac{x(10 - x)}{90}

Take LCM

P = \frac{2x(10 - x)}{90}

Simplify the above expression

P = \frac{x(10 - x)}{45}

Expand

P = \frac{10x - x^2}{45}

Hence, the probability that one of each color is selected is P = \frac{10x - x^2}{45}
