You can put two identical trapezoids together to form a parallelogram with the same height as the trapezoid and a base length equal to the sum of the base lengths of the trapezoid. The area of the parallelogram is (b1 + b2)h, so the area of the trapezoid is one-half of this area.

A number picked at random from the numbers 1 through 15 is prime. This "question" is on my study guide for Unit 6 Probability an
Sphinxa [80]

Solution:

we are given that

A number picked at random from the numbers 1 through 15 is prime.

As we know the number between 1 and 15 which are primes are listed below

2,3,5,7,11,13.

Here total number of favourable outcomes are 6.

The numbers 1 through 15 are as below:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15.

Here total number of possible outcoes are 15.

Hence the probability that if a number picked at random from the numbers 1 through 15 is prime=\frac{6}{15}=\frac{2}{5}=0.40

Hence the probability that if a number picked at random from the numbers 1 through 15 is prime is 0.4

Solve the system of equations - 8x + 3y = -17 and 3x - y = 7 by combining the<br> equlations.
NeTakaya

Given :

Two equations :

-8x + 3y = -17  ....1)

3x - y = 7        ....2)

To Find :

The solution of the system.

Solution :

Multiplying equation 2) by 3 and adding with equation 1), we get :

(-8x + 3y) + 3(3x - y) = -17 + 21

x = 4

Putting above value of x equation 2) we get :

12 - y = 7

y = 5

Therefore, solution of system is ( 4,5 ).
