Answer:

The answer to your question is

x = -2 and y = 10     or   x = 10 and y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

          x + y = 8   (1)      from (1)    x = 8 - y

         xy = - 20    (2)

       

Solve them by substitution

      (8 - y) y = - 20

      8y - y² = -20

      y² - 8y - 20 = 0

   ( y - 10) (y + 2) = 0

    y - 10 = 0              and      y + 2 = 0

   <u> y1 = 10 </u>                               <u>y2 = -2</u>

 x1 = 8 - 10                             x2 = 8 - -2

 <u>x1 = -2</u>                                  <u> x2 = 10</u>

Select all instances in which the variable described is binomial.
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer: a. , c. , d., e.

Step-by-step explanation:

A variable that counts how many times a certain event occurs in a particular number of trials is known as binomial random variable.

For each trial, there exist only two outcomes .

The probability of for each event is the same on each trial.

a.  Event has two outcomes with same probability as 0.50, therefore the  random variable represents the total number of flips required to get tails is a binomial random variable.

b. Total guidelines are 5.

Here total outcomes are not 2 , it does not meet with the conditions of binomial.

c. The random variable represents the total number of children from this pair of parents with blue eyes has two outcomes (where has or not.)

also, the probability of having blue eyes is same in each trial, so it represents binomial random variable.

d. The random variable represents the total number out of 567 customers with a checking account has two outcomes (checking or savings).

So, it represents binomial random variable.

e. The random variable represents the total number of ace cards observed has two outcomes ( ace or not ace).

So it represents the binomial random variable.
