Answer: B) Infinitely many solutions; both equations are equivalent
==============================================================
Work Shown:
x+y = 4 ... start with the first equation
x + (-x+4) = 4 ... replace y with (-x+4)
x-x+4 = 4
0x+4 = 4
0+4 = 4
4 = 4 ... this is a true statement regardless of what x you pick
So there are infinitely many solutions. Each solution (x,y) is of the form (x,-x+4). All solutions fall on the line y = -x+4 which is equivalent to x+y = 4. Note how we add x to both sides.
Or you could start with x+y = 4 and subtract x from both sides to get y = -x+4. Either way, we're dealing with the same equation which is why they both graph out the same line.

10 ton = 20,000 pounds
Answer:
E(Y) = $0.5
Var(Y) = 14.25
you should pay the same amount $0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
E(Y) = = Σ(YP)
P = probability of each outcomes.
Var(Y) = Σ
p − (μ x μ)
E(Y) = (2 x 0.25) +(6 x 0.25) + (0.5 x (-3)) = $0.5
Var(Y) = (
x 0.25) + (
x 0.25) +(
x 0.5) - (
)
= 14.5 - 0.25
Var(Y) = 14.25
for the difference between the payoff and cost of playing to have mean 0, you should pay the same amount $0.5
