Let 2x – y = 3 ——— equation 1
Let x + 5y = 14 ——— equation 2
Making x the subject in eqn 1, = x = y + 3 / 2 ——— eqn 3
• Put eqn 3 in eqn 2
(y + 3 / 2) + 5y = 14
6y = 14 – 3/2
6y = 25/2
y = 25/12
• put y = 25/12 in eqn 3
x = (25/12 + 3/2)
x = 43/12
Use pythagoras
d = √(Δx² + Δy²)
d = √(12-2)² + (9-4)²
d = √(10² + 5²)
d = √(100 + 25)
d = √125
d = 5√5
d = 5 × 2.236
d = 11.18
The nearest tenth is 11.2, so the distance is near to 11.2
Answer: A compound event is an event that has more than one possible outcomes.
Example: Outcome of rolling a 6 since the dice is 6 sided. 1/6 is the probability .
He can count and there is 6.5 blocks between his house and the park
Answer:
Let the amounts be 2x and 3x.
Then 2x+3x=60
So, 5x=60
So, x=60/5=12
So, amounts are
2x=2*12=24
And 3x=3*12=36
