Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to use the matching method, it consists in clear the same incognits in both equations and macth those results. Steps below:

<u>First equation: </u>

-2.4x-3.6y=1.2

-3.6y=1.2+2.4x

y=(1.2+2.4x)/(-3.6)    

<u>Second equation:</u>

2.4x+1.2y=1.2

1.2y=1.2-2.4x

y=(1.2-2.4x)/(1.2)

Now we have to match both equations and clear the incognit <em>x</em>

(1.2+2.4x)/(-3.6) = (1.2-2.4x)/(1.2)

(1.2+2.4x) = (1.2-2.4x) *(-3.6)/(1.2)

1.2+2.4x = (1.2-2.4x) *(-3)

1.2+2.4x = -3.6+7.2x

2.4x-7.2x = -3.6-1.2

-4.8x = -4.8

x = (-4.8)/(-4.8)

<em>x = 1</em>

If P( A or B) = 2/5, P(B)=1/4 and <br> P( A and B) = 1/10 find P(A)
natulia [17]

Answer:

p(a) = -3/20

Step-by-step explanation:

p ( a +b) = p(a)+p(b)

1/10= p(a) +1/4

1/10 - 1/4 = p(a)

p(a) = -3/20
