Answer:
See attached picture
Step-by-step explanation:
To graph a linear function like y=mx+b, find m and b. Here m = -1/2 and b= 2 for 
.
Start at (0,2) on the y-axis and plot a point. Then move from that point one unit down and over to the right 2. Plot the point and connect.
Answer:
.52¢
Step-by-step explanation:
One apple cost 52 cents. The expression below represents the cost of an apple.
5a =2.60
5a/5= 2.60/5
a =0.52
Calculate the probability that both bids are successful
Answer:
The probability that both contracs are successful is 0.21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
E1 = the event that the bid on the first contract is successful
E2 = the event that the bid on the second contract is successful
P(E1) = 0.3
P(E2) = 0.7
Let P(A) represent the event that both contracts are successful
P(A) = P(E1 and E2)
Since both events are independent. P(A) becomes
P(A) = = P(E1 * P(E2)
By substituton
P(A) = 0.3 * 0.7
P(A) = 0.21
Hence the probability that both contracs are successful is 0.21
The numbers are "x" and "y",
we suggest this system of equations.
x+y=24
x-y=15
solve by reduction method.
x+y=24
x-y=15
-----------------
2x=39 ⇒x=39/2=19.5
x+y=24
-(x-y=15)
-------------------
2y=9 ⇒y=9/2=4.5
The numbers are 19.5 and 4.5
To check
19.5+4.5=24
19.5-4.5=15
