Answer:   Sam = $225      George = $300

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

NOTES:

Sam: s

George: g = s + 75

Together: s + g = 525


a.

The two equations that can be created are "George" and Together"

The system is: \left \{ {{\text{g = s + 75}} \atop {\text{s + g = 525}}} \right.

b.

see attached graph

c.

The intersection of the two lines is at (225, 300).  Since Sam represented the x-axis and Georege represented the y-axis, then Sam = $225 and George = $300.


BONUS:

This system can also be solved algebraically using the substitution method.

Replace "g" with "s + 75" into the second equation:

s + (s + 75) = 525

2s + 75 = 525

2s = 450

 s = 225

Next, input the s-value into the George equation to solve for g:

g = s + 75   = (225) + 75   = 300

After getting 5 new rocks, George gave half of his rock collection to Susan. If George gave Susan 36 rocks, which equation could
White raven [17]

Answer:

1/2 (x+5) = 36  should be the equation that is used to determine how many rocks George started with.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the number of rocks George had.

As George gave, after getting 5 new rocks, half of his rock collection to Susan which is = 36 rocks

It means after getting 5 new rocks George's total rocks = 72

Given that he gave half collection to Susan = 36

Thus, before inducting 5 new rocks Georg's total rocks were = 67

Thus,

1/2 (x+5) = 36 should be the correct equation.

solving

1/2 (x+5) = 36

Multiplying both sides by 2

1/2 (x+5) × 2 = 36 × 2

x+5 = 72

x = 72 - 5

x = 67

Thus, before getting 5 new rocks, the number of rocks George had = 67

Therefore,

1/2 (x+5) = 36  should be the equation that is used to determine how many rocks George started with.

our buses carrying 140 high school students arrive to Montreal. The buses carry, respectively, 31, 43, 27, and 39 students. One
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

V(X)= 39.10

V(Y)= 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Total number of student = 140

Bus A - 31

Bus B- 43

Bus C- 27

Bus D- 39

The probability that a student was on the bus is proportional to the number of student. Eg 31/140 in bus A, 43/140 on bus B, ...

E(X) = (31*31/140) + (43*43/140)  + (27*27/140) + (39*39/140)

=  35.5

Var(X) =(31-35.5)^2 \times \dfrac{31}{140}+(43-35.5)^2 \times \dfrac{43}{140}+(39-35.5)^2 \times \dfrac{39}{140}+(27-35.5)^2 \times \dfrac{27}{140}

V(X)= 39.10

The bus driver have  1/4 probability on being on any of the buses.

E(Y) = 140/4 = 35

Var(Y)=\dfrac{(35-31)^2+(35-43)^2+(35-27)^2+(35-39)^2}{4}

V(Y)= 40
