Both form straight angles, which are 180 degrees.

x+4y+x+y=180
2x+5y=180

4x+y=180

Solve the second equation for y and substitute the variable.
y= -4x+180

2x+5(-4x+180)=180
2x-20x+900=180
-18x= -720
x=40

Plug the x value in
4(40)+y= 180
160+y=180
y=20

Final answer: x=40, y=20

X+4y+x+y= 4x+y=180
simplify by adding like terms
2x+5y= 4x+y=180
Subtract y from each side
2x+4y=4x=180
Subtract 2x from each side
4y=2x=180
y=180/4=45
x=180/2=90

Comet cable charges $32.50 a month for basic cable television. Each premium channel selected costs an additional $4.50 per month

Alex_Xolod [135]

32.50+4.50x

You are going to pay $32.50 no matter what, that is what you pay for basic cable. $4.50 is what you pay for the extras, so depending on how many premium channels you want, you will pay $4.50 for every extra channel, which is why it is 4.50x because the x is how many premium channels you purchase that month.

According to the general equation for conditional probability, if P(A upside down u B)= 5/7 and P(B)=7/8 , what is P(A|B)?

natta225 [31]

$P(A | B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}$

$P(A|B) = \frac{5/7}{7/8}$

$P(A|B) = \frac{5}{7} \div \frac{7}{8}$

$P(A|B) = \frac{5}{7}\times\frac{8}{7}$

$P(A|B) = \frac{5*8}{7*7}$

$P(A|B) = \frac{40}{49}$
