Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that in a sample of 800 U.S. adults, 199 think that most celebrities are good role models. Two Two U.S. adults are selected at random from the population of all U.S. adults without replacement.
In 800 adults 199 are favourable and remaining 601 are against.
a) The probability that both adults think most celebrities are good role models is ________= Prob of selecting both from 199
= 
=0.062
b) The probability that neither adult thinks most celebrities are good role models is _______=P(both selecting from 601)
= 
=0.564
c) The probability that at least one of the two adults thinks most celebrities are good role models ______
=1-Prob that neither thinks
= 1- 0.564
= 0.436
Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define z = x-y, so solving for z will tell us exactly what we want to know. Then we can substitute for x: x = z+y, and our equations become ...
7(z+y)+3y = 8 ⇒ 7z +10y = 8
6(z+y)-3y = 5 ⇒ 6z +3y = 5
We can eliminate the y-variable by subtracting 3 times the first equation from 10 times the second:
10(6z +3y) -3(7z +10y) = 10(5) -3(8)
60z +30y -21z -30y = 50 -24 . . . . eliminate parentheses
39z = 26 . . . . collect terms
z = 26/39 = 2/3 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of z and reduce
The value of x - y is 2/3.
_____
The attached graph shows (x, y) = (1, 1/3), so x - y = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3.

Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
It is usually convenient to choose small exponents when graphing an exponential function. You can get a reasonable idea of the shape of the curve using x-values with a magnitude of 3 or less.
The exponential term 2^x has a horizontal asymptote of y=0 for large negative values of x. Adding 3 to that term shifts the horizontal asymptote up to y=3. Of course, everything else is shifted up the same amount.
You know that ...
2^-1 = 1/2
2^0 = 1
2^1 = 2
2^2 = 4
Adding 3 to these values will give you points on the graph for x=-1 to 2.
<span>A) 2x + 4y = 14
B) 4x + y = 20
If you multiply equation A by -2, then when the equations are added, the x will be eliminated.
The solutions are:
X = 4.714285714285714
Y = 1.1428571428571428
