Answer:

Orange = 12

Grape = 15

Cola = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Turning this into equations you can give each soda a variable

Cola = C | Grape = G | Orange = R

Then you get:

8 + G = C

R + 3 = G

C + G + R = 50

We want to get a variable all by itself in an equation so first I'm going to put the second equation (R + 3 = G) in the first (8 + G = C) by replacing the G to get

8 + (R + 3) = C  Combine the variables 11 + R = C and put that new equation into the last equation

(11 + R) + G + R = 50    

Now plug our original second equation (R + 3 = G) into our third to get

(11 + R) + (R + 3) + R = 50    

Combine and get

14 + 3R = 50      Subtract over the 14

3R = 36              Divide by 3

Orange Sodas = 12

Our new 3rd Equation is now:   C + G + 12 = 50, subtract over 12 to get

C + G = 38

Plug either equation 1 or 2 into that one, I'll do 1

(8 + G) + G = 38

8 + 2G = 38

2G = 30

Grape Sodas = 15

Now our 3rd equation is C + 15 = 38, subtract over 15

Cola Sodas = 23

Orange = 12

Grape = 15

Cola = 23

12 + 15 + 23 = 50

3) What is an equation for the line that passes through the coordinates (-1.2) and (7,6) ?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

y=\frac{1}{2} x+\frac{5}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope using the slope using the given points. Remember that the slope is the change in y over the change in x.  

\frac{6-2}{7- (-1)}=\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2}

So now we have the equation y=\frac{1}{2} x+b, and we need to find out what b is. We can do this by pointing a point (either one, but I'll use -1,2) into the equation

2=\frac{1}{2}(-1)+b

Rearrange the equation so it equals b

\frac{5}{2}=b

Put it together and that's the final equation!

y=\frac{1}{2} x+\frac{5}{2}

I need help answering this question
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

JL = JK + KL

84 = 3x+5  + 6x+7

Combine like terms

84 = 9x +12

Subtract 12 from each side

84-12 = 9x+12-12

72 = 9x

Divide by 9

72/9 = 9x/9

8 =x

We want KL

KL = 6x+7

   6*8 +7

    48+7

Suppose that 4 fair coins are tossed. Let Equals The event that exactly 2 coins show tails and Equal The event that at least 2 c
faust18 [17]

Answer:

a) P ( E | F ) = 0.54545

b) P ( E | F' ) = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- 4 Coins are tossed

- Event E exactly 2 coins shows tail

- Event F at-least two coins show tail

Find:

- Find P ( E |  F )

- Find P ( E | F prime )

Solution:

- The probability of head H and tail T = 0.5, and all events are independent

So,

                    P ( Exactly 2 T ) = ( TTHH ) + ( THHT ) + ( THTH ) + ( HTTH ) + ( HHTT) + ( HTHT)  = 6*(1/2)^4 = 0.375

                    P ( At-least 2 T ) = P ( Exactly 2 T ) + P ( Exactly 3 T ) + P ( Exactly 4 T) = 0.375 + ( HTTT) + (THTT) + (TTHT) + (TTTH) + ( TTTT)

      = 0.375 + 5*(1/2)^4 = 0.375 + 0.3125 = 0.6875

- The probabilities for each events are:

                    P ( E ) = 0.375

                    P ( F ) = 0.6875

- The Probability to get exactly two tails given that at-least 2 tails were achieved:

                    P ( E | F ) = P ( E & F ) / P ( F )

                    P ( E | F ) = 0.375 / 0.6875

                    P ( E | F ) = 0.54545

- The Probability to get exactly two tails given that less than 2 tails were achieved:

                    P ( E | F' ) = P ( E & F' ) / P ( F )

                    P ( E | F' ) = 0 / 0.6875

                    P ( E | F' ) = 0

When competing the square, you want to have
{b}^{2}
at the end, and using the fact that the x term and coefficient are really
2bx
