Hope this helps you out :D
It’s 2 equations so in order to solve the previous system, you can use different methods, as for example substitution or addition of equations. In this case, you use the second one, due to the fact you have 7x in one equation and -7x in the other equation. In this way you can easily eliminate variable x and then solve for y. With the value of y you can replace in any of the two equations and solve for x.
7x-y=-1
-7x+3y=-25
Summarizing, you proceed as follow:
- add up the given equations
7x - y = -1
-7x+3y=-25
——————
0 +2y=-26
- solve for y in the previous equation
2y=-26
y=-26/2
y=-13
- replace the obtained value of y in one of the given equations, and solve for x
7x-(-13)=-1
7x+13=-1
7x=-1-13
7x=-14
x=-14
x=-14/7
x=-2
Hence, the solution of the given systems of equation is:
X=-2
Y=-13
Answer:
57
Step-by-step explanation:
The player has a 1/4 chance of drawing any of the 4 prizes. This means that the probability of drawing a prize of $4 is 1/2 because there are 2 prizes worth of $4. The probability of drawing a prize of $20 is 1/4 and the probability of drawing a prize of $200 is also 1/4. To find the fair price of the game, we have to calculate the expected value that the player will gain. This can be obtained by multiplying any possible value of a price for the probability of drawing a prize of that value and adding all the obtained values togueter. Thus, the fair price of the game is
The fraction would be 997/1000, since this decimal goes to the thousandths place.
Answer:
Ellen bought 2700 paper clips.

=2700
Answer:
the answer b
Step-by-step explanation:
[surface area]=[area of 4 triangles sides]+[area of square base]
[area of square base]=24*24--------> 576 cm²
[area of one triangles side]
l=slant height
l²=16²+12²-------> l²=400-----------> l=20 cm
[area of one triangles side]=24*20/2--------> 240 cm²
[area of 4 triangles sides]=4*240----------> 960 cm²
[surface area]=[960]+[576]--------> 1536 cm²
