Solve the system of equations.

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Option 2: (1, 0) and (0, -5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve this system of equations using the elimination method.

Start by labelling the two equations.

5x -y= 5 -----(1)

5x² -y= 5 -----(2)

(2) -(1):

5x² -y -(5x -y)= 5 -5

Expand:

5x² -y -5x +y= 0

5x² -5x= 0

Factorise:

5x(x -1)= 0

5x= 0 or x -1= 0

x= 0 or x= 1

Now that we have found the x values, we can substitute them into either equations to solve for y.

Substitute into (1):

5(0) -y= 5 or 5(1) -y= 5

0 -y= 5 or -y= 5 -5

y= -5 or -y= 0

y= 0

Thus, the solutions are (0, -5) and (1, 0).

Help!! Question on probability. Wi give brainliest!!

Aleks [24]

Answer:

$P = \frac{5}{282} = 0.0177$

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the total amount of apples in the crate:

Total = 10 + 14 + 4 + 18 = 46 apples

The probability of the first apple being a golden delicious apple is the number of those apples over the total number of apples:

$P(golden) = \frac{N(golden)}{N(total)}$

$P(golden) = \frac{4}{48} = \frac{1}{12}$

Then, the probability of the second apple being a granny Smith apple is the number of those apples over the total number of apples, but now the total number of apples is one less, because one apple was removed from the crate:

$P(granny) = \frac{N(granny)}{N(total)-1}$
