Answer:
The answer is 8/5 or 8 out of 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this you need to first add the number of envelopes together to get the sum of how many envelopes there are, 1 + 3 + 2 + 2 = 8. Next you add the amount of blue and green envelopes together 3 + 2 = 5. The total number of envelopes is 8, and 5 out of the 8 are green or blue, therefore you will have a 8 out of 5 chance of picking one of those colors.
Just simplify the following equation
2 (9.95) + 3 (11.99)
19.90 + 35.97
55.87 spent
Answer: option C is the correct answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The system of linear equations is
10x + 7y = 12 - - - - - - - 1
8x + 7y = 18 - - - - - - - 2
Since the coefficient of y is the same in equation 1 and equation 2, we will eliminate y by subtracting equation 2 from equation 1, it becomes
10x - 8x + 7y - 7y = 12 - 18
2x = -6
x = - 6/2 = - 3
Substituting x = - 3 into equation 1, it becomes
10×-3 + 7y = 12
-30 + 7y = 12
Let the constants be on the right hand side and the term containing y be on the left hand side. It becomes
7y = 12 + 30
7y = 42
y = 42/7
y = 6
C) (−3, 6)
X= weight of TV
y= weight of CD
3x+5y= 62.5
3x+ 2y= 52
You can either solve for a variable, or eliminate a variable by subtracting the second equation from the first:
3x + 5y = 62.5
-(3x+2y = 52)
0 + 3y = 10.5, so y = 10.5/3 or 3.5.
Now plug y= 3.5 back into any equation to get x:
3x + 5(3.5) = 62.5
3x + 17.5 = 62.5
3x = 45
x = 15
Always check work. Both equations should be true for x=15, y= 3.5
