Because this is a second degree equation you will have 2 solutions.  When you take the square root of a number you have to account for both the positive and negative roots.  Since the square root of 289 is 17 then your solutions are +17 and -17.

The number of possibilities for the first one is 50 choose 5, and the number of possibilities for the second one is 60 choose 6. Since 50 choose 5 is 2118760 and 60 choose 6 is 50063860. There are less possible outcomes for state "A" and therefore you have a higher chance of winning.

Rich has a bag of 24 pencils. Each pencil is 19 centimeters long. What is the combined length of the pencils in meters
Roman55 [17]

Multiply the number of pencils by the length to get total centimeters first, then convert to meters:

24 x 19 = 456 cams.

1 meter = 100 cm

Divide total cm by 100 to get meters

456 / 100 = 4.56 meters

Solve this system using elimination (20 POINTS)<br> 4x-7y=3<br> x-7y=-15
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

x = 6, y =3

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-7y=3

x-7y=-15

Multiply the first equation by -1

-4x+7y=-3

Then add this to the second equation to eliminate y

-4x+7y=-3

x-7y=-15

------------------

-3x +0y = -18

-3x = -18

Divide by -3

-3x/-3 = -18/-3

x = 6

Now find y

x -7y = -15

6 -7y = -15

Subtract 6 from each side

6-7y-6 = -15-6

-7y = -21

Divide by -7

-7y/-7 = -21/-7

y =3
