5x + 2y = 6
3x + y = 4....multiply by -2
-------------
5x + 2y = 6
-6x - 2y = -8 (result of multiplying by -2)
-------------add
-x = -2
x = 2
5x + 2y = 6
5(2) + 2y = 6
10 + 2y = 6
2y = 6 - 10
2y = -4
y = -4/2
y = -2 <=== here it is
Condition (A) P(B/A) = y is true.

What is probability?</h3>
- Probability is an area of mathematics that deals with numerical descriptions of how probable an event is to occur or how likely a statement is to be true.
To find the true condition:
If two events are independent, then:
Use formulas for conditional probabilities:
- Pr(A/B) = Pr(A∩B) / Pr(B)
- Pr(B/A) = Pr(B∩A) / Pr(A)
For independent events these formulas will be:
- Pr(A/B) = Pr(A∩B) / Pr(B) = Pr(A) . Pr(B) / Pr(B) = Pr(A)
- Pr(B/A) = Pr(B∩A) / Pr(A) = Pr(B) . Pr(A) / Pr(A) = Pr(B)
Now in your case, Pr(A) = x and Pr(B) = y.
- Pr(A/B) = x, Pr(B/A) = y, Pr(A∩B) = x.y
Therefore, condition (A) P(B/A) = y is true.

The complete question is given below:
The probability of event A is x, and the probability of event B is y. If the two events are independent, which of these conditions must be true?
a. P(B|A) = y
b. P(A|B) = y
c. P(B|A) = x
d. P(A and B) = x + y
e. P(A and B) = x/y

System: x + y = 44; x = 2y + 2
Solve with substitution: x = 30; y = 14
x + y = 44
x = 2y + 2
Substitute 2y + 2 for x
2y + 2 + y = 44
3y + 2 = 44
Subtract 2 on both sides.
3y = 42
y = 14
Now substitute back in.
x + 14 = 44
Subtract 14 on both sides.
x = 30
Here: Fraction = 3/5
Let, original fraction (before simplifying) = 3x/5x
Then, 3x + 5x = 40
8x = 40
x = 40/8
x = 5
So, 3x = 3(5) = 15 & 5(5) = 25
In short, Your Answer would be 15/25
Hope this helps!
