Solve: 2 x + 5y + 5 = 0 <br> 2y=3x+17. <br> Find x and y

Yanka [14]

Answer:

x = -5 and y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 2x + 5y +5 = 0

a) 2x + 5y = -5

b) 2y = 3x + 17

b) y = 3/2x + 17/2

a) 2x + 5(3/2x + 17/2) = -5

a) 2x + 15/2x + 85/2) = -5

a) 19/2x = -5 - 85/2

a) 19/2x = -95/2

a) x = (-95/2) / (19/2)

x = -5

b) 2y = 3(-5) + 17

b) y = 2/2

y = 1

Josie is training for a race the ratio of the number of minutes she wants to the number of miles she wants is 2043 she plans to

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Josie takes 0.93 minutes to run 2 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Ratio:

Number of minutes: Number of miles = 20:43

Josie wants to run 2 miles. We have to find the number of minutes she need to run to maintain the ration.

Let x be the number of minutes Josie run.

This can be done in the following manner:

$\dfrac{20}{43} = \dfrac{x}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{20}{43}\times 2\\\\\Rightarrow x = 0.93$

Thus, Josie takes 0.93 minutes to run 2 miles.

1. Miguel is playing a game in which a box contains four chips with numbers written on them. Two of the chips have the number 1,

zzz [600]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Miguel is playing a game

The box contains 4 chips, 2 with number 1, and other two differntly numbered as 3 and 5.

OUt of these 4, 2 chips are drawn

P(drawing same number) = 2C2/4C2 = $\frac{1}{6}$

Prob (drawing differnt numbers) = 1-1/6 = $\frac{5}{6}$

Hence prob of winning 2 dollars = $\frac{1}{6}$

Prob of losing 1 dollar = $\frac{5}{6}$

b) Expected value = sum of prob x amount won

= $\frac{1}{6}2+\frac{5}{6}(-1)=-\frac{1}{2}$

c) Miguel can expect to lose 1/2 dollars for every game he plays

d) If it is to be a fair game expected value =0

i.e. let the amount assigned be s

Then $\frac{1}{6}s-\frac{5}{6}=0\\s=5$
