So use cancelation
multiply first equation by 2
2x+8y=10
times 2
4x+16y=20
now add

4x+16y=20
<u>-4x-9y=-13   +
</u>0x+7y=7
7y=7
divide by 7
y=1

subsittue

2x+8y=10
2x+8(1)=10
2x+8=10
subtract 8 from both sides
2x=2
divide by 2
x=1


x=1
y=1

Lin has a drawing with an area of 20 in squared. If she increases all sides by a scale factor of 4, what will the new area be?
diamong [38]

The new area will be 320 in²

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

Lin has a drawing with an area of 20 in² and she increases all sides by a scale factor of 4.

<u>The general rule</u> we need to use here.......

"<em>If the lengths of the sides in a shape are all increased by a scale  factor of  k, then the area will be increased by a scale factor of  k^2"</em>

Here the sides are increased by a scale factor of 4. So, the area will be increased by a scale factor of  (4)^2 =16

Thus, the new area will be:  (20*16)in^2 = 320in^2

All bags entering a research facility are screened. The screening process is not perfect so that 77% of the bags that contain fo
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

(1) 0.5933

(2) 0.8955

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that all bags entering a research facility are screened.

Let Probability that bags entering the building contains forbidden material,

 P(F) = 0.69

Probability that bags entering the building does not contains forbidden material,   P(NF) = 1 - 0.69 = 0.31

Let event A = alarm gets triggered

Probability that alarm gets trigger given the bags contain forbidden material, P(A/F) = 0.77

Probability that alarm gets trigger given the bags does not contain forbidden material, P(A/NF) = 0.20

(1) Probability that a bag triggers the alarm, P(A) ;

         P(A) = P(F) * P(A/F) + P(NF) * P(A/NF)

                 = (0.69 * 0.77) + (0.31 * 0.20) = 0.5313 + 0.062

                 = 0.5933

Therefore, probability that a bag triggers the alarm is 0.5933 .

(2) Probability that a bag that triggers the alarm will actually contain forbidden material is given by P(F/A) ;

Using Bayes' Theorem;

    P(F/A) = \frac{P(F) * P(A/F)}{P(F) * P(A/F) + P(NF) *P(A/NF)} = \frac{0.69*0.77}{0.69*0.77+0.31*0.20} = \frac{0.5313}{0.5933}

               = 0.8955
