<span>The y variable has the same coefficient so use elimination (subtract equations).

    -2x = 8 - 6y
-(-15x = 21 - 6y)
------------------------
    13x = -13 + 0

x = -1
Use this to find y in either equation. </span>
<span>-2(-1) = 8 - 6y
2 = 8 - 6y
2 - 8 = -6y
-6 = -6y
y = 1

(x,y) = (-1, 1)

Pavel [41]

Answer:

x+46

Explanation:

4(−8x+5)−(−33x−26)

Distribute the Negative Sign:

=4(−8x+5)+−1(−33x−26)

=4(−8x+5)+−1(−33x)+(−1)(−26)

=4(−8x+5)+33x+26

Distribute:

=(4)(−8x)+(4)(5)+33x+26

=−32x+20+33x+26

Combine Like Terms:

=−32x+20+33x+26

=(−32x+33x)+(20+26)

=x+46

A box contains four $1 and six $5 bills. if three bills are selected at random without replacement, find the probability that al
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

C.1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially the box has four $1 and six $5 bills. The probability of selecting a $5 bill in the first trial would be given as;

(number of $5 bills) / (total number of bills)

= (6)/(4+6) = 3/5

If in the first attempt we actually pick a $5 bill, the number of $5 bills will reduce by one to 5. Now, the probability of picking a $5 bill in the second attempt will be given as;

(new number of $5 bills) / (new total number of bills)

= (5)/(4+5) = 5/9

The new number of $5 bills will now be; 6 - 2 = 4 since we have already picked 2 without replacing them.

Now, the probability of picking a $5 bill in the third attempt will be given as;

(new number of $5 bills) / (new total number of bills)

= (4)/(4+4) = 1/2

Since the three attempts are independent, the probability of picking  all three $5 bills is;

3/5 * 5/9 * 1/2 = 1/6
