Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = 4

If you substitute x = 1, and y = -4, then

2(1) - 4 = 2 - 4 = -2 not 4

Answer: Choice D) ordered pair is <u>not</u> a solution to the second equation

We can see this by replacing x and y with 1 and -4 respectively

2x + y = 4

2*1 + y = 4 .... replace x with 1

2*1 + (-4) = 4 ... replace y with -4

2 - 4 = 4

-2 = 4 .... this equation is false because -2 and 4 are different values

The last equation being false means that the original equation 2x+y = 4 is also false when (x,y) = (1,-4). Therefore, this ordered pair is not a solution to the second equation 2x+y = 4

A solution to the system must make BOTH equations true simultaneously, not just one.

The number of minutes that Samantha waits to catch the bus is uniformly distributed between 0 and 15 minutes. What is the probab

Drupady [299]

Using the uniform distribution, it is found that there is a 0.3 = 30% probability that Samantha has to wait less than 4.5 minutes to catch the bus.

<h3>What is the uniform probability distribution?</h3>

It is a distribution with two bounds, a and b, in which each outcome is equally as likely.

The probability of finding a value of at lower than x is:

$P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}$

In this problem, the time is uniformly distributed between 0 and 15 minutes, hence the bounds are a = 0 and b = 15.

The probability that Samantha has to wait less than 4.5 minutes to catch the bus is given by:

$P(X < 4.5) = \frac{4.5 - 0}{15 - 0} = 0.3$
