It's a simultaneous equation:
Steps:
1.Number the equations..

a+b=77 -1
a-b=13 -2

2. Choose what variable you want to use. In this case I would use the "b". Since the signs in front of the "b's" are different, add the two equations together

a + b = 77
+ + +
a (-b) = 13

Which gives;
2a = 90

Then solve to find a:
2a=90
a= 90/2
a=45

3.Then plug the "a" value into any of the original equations to find the "b" value. I would use equation 1 since the all the variables are positive.

a + b = 77
(45) + b = 77
b=77-45
b=32

4.Solution

a=45
b=32

PAINTING Lisa is painting a fence that is 26 feet long and 7 feet tall. A gallon of paint will cover 350 square feet. Write and
skelet666 [1.2K]
First we need to find the area of the fence, since paint covers square feet and squared units refers to area.  The area of the fence is 26 x 7, which is 182 sq ft.  If one gallon of paint will cover 350 sq ft, your proportion will look like this, with gallons of paint on top and square feet on the bottom. \frac{1}{350} = \frac{x}{182}.  Cross multiply to get 350x = 182 and x = .52, just a bit over a half of a gallon of paint.

For each day that Sasha travels to work, the probability that she will experience a delay due to traffic is 0.2. Each day can be
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

0.8213

Step-by-step explanation:

-This is a binomial probability problem given by the function:

P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}

Given that n=21 and p=0.2, the probability that she experience a delay on at least 3 days is calculated as:

P(X=x)={n\choose x}p^x(1-p)^{n-x}\\\\P(X\geq 3)=1-P(X

Hence, the probability that she experience delay on at least 3 days is 0.8213
