If we multiply the second equation by 2 we get

a + 2/3b = 18 ............(3)
a + 3b = 39................(1) 
(1) - (3) gives:-
7/3 b = 21
b =  21 * 3/7 = 9 

plug b = 9 in equation (1):-

a + 3(9) = 39 

a = 39-27 = 12 

Answer:- a = 12 and b = 9.

A number picked at random from the numbers 1 through 15 is prime. This "question" is on my study guide for Unit 6 Probability an
Sphinxa [80]

Solution:

we are given that

A number picked at random from the numbers 1 through 15 is prime.

As we know the number between 1 and 15 which are primes are listed below

2,3,5,7,11,13.

Here total number of favourable outcomes are 6.

The numbers 1 through 15 are as below:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15.

Here total number of possible outcoes are 15.

Hence the probability that if a number picked at random from the numbers 1 through 15 is prime=\frac{6}{15}=\frac{2}{5}=0.40

Hence the probability that if a number picked at random from the numbers 1 through 15 is prime is 0.4

Find the value of x. Round to the<br> nearest tenth.<br> X<br> 37<br> 6<br> X=<br> Enter
Schach [20]

<u>Answer:</u>

<h2>x ≈ 4.5</h2>

<u>Steps:</u>

tan(37°) = 0.75..

tan(37°) = x/6

x/6 = 0.75..

x = 0.75.. × 6

x = 4.52.. ≈ 4.5

Using Euclid's division algorithm prove that : 847,2160 are co-primes
AysviL [449]
Definition of eo-primes or relatively primes: Two numbers are said to be co-prime or relatively prime If their HCF IS 1 Hence to prove 847 and 2160 as co-prime numbers we will find their HCF and which should be 1

New steps to find HCF will be as under

2160 = 847 x 2+ 466
847 = 466 ×1 +381
466 = 381 x 1 + 85
381 =85 x 4+ 41
85 =41 x 2+3
41 =3 x 13+ 2
3 =2 x 1+1
2 =1 x 2+0

Therefore, the HCF=1 Hence, the numbers are co-primes (relatively prime).
