You can solve this by substitution: 

x + y = -6
y = -6-x
Substitute for y in  xy = -7:-
x(-6 - x) = -7
-x^2 - 6x = -7

x^2 + 6x - 7 = 0
(x + 7)(x - 1) = 0

so x = -7, 1

To find the values of y plug  these va;ues of x into the equation x + y = -6:-
when x = -7,  y = -6 + 7 = 1
when x =  1, y = -6 - 1 =  -7

so answer is  x = -7 and y = 1
  and              x = 1 and y = -7

A car dealership sells 0, 1, or 2 luxury cars on any day. When selling a car, the dealer also tries to persuade the customer to
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Mean = 1.42

Variance = 0.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: X denote the number of luxury cars sold in a given day, and Y denote the number of extended warranties sold.

Also, joint probability function of X and Y are given.

To find:

mean and variance of X

Solution:

From the given joint probability function of X and Y,

P(X=0)=\frac{1}{6}\\P(X=1)=\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1+2}{12}=\frac{3}{12}\\P(X=2)=\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1+4+2}{12}=\frac{7}{12}

Mean of X:

E(X)=\sum XP(X)\\=0\left ( \frac{1}{6} \right )+1\left ( \frac{3}{12} \right )+2\left ( \frac{7}{12} \right )\\=0+\frac{3}{12}+\frac{14}{12}\\=\frac{17}{12}=1.42

Variance of X:

E(X^2)=\sum X^2P(X)\\=0^2\left ( \frac{1}{6} \right )+1^2\left ( \frac{3}{12} \right )+2^2\left ( \frac{7}{12} \right )\\=0+\frac{3}{12}+\frac{28}{12}\\=\frac{31}{12}

var(X)=E\left [ X^2 \right ]-\left ( E\left [ X \right ] \right )^2\\=\frac{31}{12}-\left ( \frac{17}{12} \right )^2\\=\frac{31}{12}-\frac{289}{144}\\=\frac{372-289}{144}\\=\frac{83}{144}\\=0.58

All vertical and horizontal cross sections of any one cube are all the same size and shape. What about vertical and horizontal c
svetlana [45]
Horizontal cross sections are the same shape: they are all squares if the pyramid is square or rectangles if the pyramid is a rectangle pyramid.
Vertical cross sections are different shape: At the pyramid top they are triangles, at other places they have four sides.

Horizontal cross sections are different size: the more we go to the top of the pyramind, the smaller they get.
Vertical cross sections are different size: the closer we get to the edges, the smaller they become.
