First you will need to cross multiply.

5/x = 2/8
~ Do 5 times 8. =40
~ Then do 2 times x. =2x.

2x=40
/2 /2
~~Now divide each side by 2 and you should get x=20.

X=20
Hope this helps!!! :D

In how many ways can a quality-control engineer select a sample of3 transistors for testing frm a batch of 100 transistors?

Advocard [28]

Answer:

161700 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the transistors are chosen is not important. This means that we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this question:

3 transistors from a set of 100. So

$C_{100,3} = \frac{100!}{3!(100-3)!} = 161700$

So 161700 ways.

Solve: 7 x + 2 y = 16; -21 x-6 y = 24 Solve : 7 x + 2 y = 16 ; -21 x - 6 y = 24

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Solving system of linear equations:</h3>

7x + 2y = 16 ----------------(I)

-21x - 6y = 24 -----------------(II)

$\sf \dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{7}{-21}=\dfrac{-1}{3}\\$

$\sf \dfrac{b_1}{b_2}=\dfrac{2}{-6}=\dfrac{-1}{3}$

$\sf \dfrac{c_1}{c_2} =\dfrac{16}{24}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\ \dfrac{a_1}{a_2}=\dfrac{b_1}{b_2} \neq \dfrac{c_1}{c_2}$

So, the lines are parallel and has no solution
