5x+3y=-9
-2x+y=8

The first step is the trickery (and quite frankly, hardest to explain) part. You need to multiply one equation by a number that will create one variable to be the negative version of the other...(Confusing, right? Don't worry, I'll show you)

We are going to solve for X first.

We will multiply the second equation by -3
5x+3y=-9
-3(-2x+y)=(-3)8

Now simplify:
5x+3y= -9
6x-3y= -24

Now combine the two equations (add them together)
11x= -33
Divide by 11
X=-3

Now plug X in to one of the first equations:
5(-3)+3y= -9
-15+3y =-9
3Y= 6
Y= 2


So your final answer is:
x= -3
Y= 2

Hope this helps!

You take a quiz with 6 multiple choice questions. After you studied your estimated that you would have about an 80 % chance of g
Arada [10]

Answer:

1.15%

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the probability of m  independent events you multiply the individual probability of each event. In this case we have m independent events, each one with the same probability, therefore:

p^{m}

0.8^{20} = 1.15\%

This is a particlar scenario of binomial distribution problem. So the binomial distribution questions are about the number of success of m independent events, where every individual event has the same p probability. In the question we have 20 events and each event has a probability of 80%. The binomial distribution formula is:

\binom{n}{k} * p^{k} * (1-p)^{n-k}

n is the number of events

k is the number of success

p is the probability of each individual event

\binom{n}{k} is the binomial coefficient

the binomial coefficient allows to find the subsets of k elements in a set of n elements.  In this case there is only one subset possible since the only way to get 20 of 20 correct questions is to getting right all questions (for getting 19 of 20 questions there are many ways, for example getting the first question wrong and all the other questions right, or getting second questions wrong and all the other questions right, etc).

\binom{n}{k} = \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}

therefore, for this questions we have:

\frac{20!}{20!(20-20)!} * 0.8^{20} * (1-0.8)^{0} = 1.15\%

Help! If you know this can you tell me how to do it?

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's how this works:

Get everything together into one fraction by finding the LCD and doing the math.  The LCD is sin(x) cos(x).  Multiplying that in to each term looks like this:

[sin(x)cos(x)]\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}+[sin(x)cos(x)]\frac{cos(x)}{sin(x)} =?

In the first term, the cos(x)'s cancel out, and in the second term the sin(x)'s cancel out, leaving:

\frac{sin^2(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)}+\frac{cos^2(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)}=?

Put everything over the common denominator now:

\frac{sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)}{sin(x)cos(x)}=?

Since sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)=1, we will make that substitution:

\frac{1}{sin(x)cos(x)}

We could separate that fraction into 2:

\frac{1}{sin(x)}×\frac{1}{cos(x)}

\frac{1}{sin(x)}=csc(x)  and  \frac{1}{cos(x)}=sec(x)

Therefore, the simplification is

sec(x)csc(x)
