Insert 3x - 7 for y in 15x - 5y = 14
15x - 5(3x - 7) = 14
15x - 15x + 35 = 14
0 = -21
There is no solution.

If a sprinkler waters 1 over 15 of a lawn in 1 over 3 hour, how much time will it take to water the entire lawn?

Feliz [49]

Now, a whole, will be 15/15 or 1 whole.

now, the sprinkler does 1/15 of the lawn in 1/3 of an hour, how long will it be to do the whole 15/15?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
lawn&hours\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
\frac{1}{15}&\frac{1}{3}\\\\
\frac{15}{15}&h
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{1}{15}\quad }{\frac{15}{15}}=\cfrac{\quad \frac{1}{3}\quad }{h}\implies \cfrac{1}{15}\cdot \cfrac{15}{15}=\cfrac{\quad \frac{1}{3}\quad }{\frac{h}{1}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{1}{15}=\cfrac{1}{3}\cdot \cfrac{1}{h}\implies \cfrac{1}{15}=\cfrac{1}{3h}\implies 3h=15\implies h=\cfrac{15}{3}\implies h=5$

A random variable x takes four possible values, 0, 2, a, and b, where a and b are unknown numbers. if pr[x = 0] = 0.2, pr[x=2] =

Alexus [3.1K]

$\displaystyle\sum_{x\in\{0,2,a,b\}}\mathbb P(X=x)=1$
$\mathbb P(X=0)+\mathbb P(X=2)+\mathbb P(X=a)+\mathbb P(X=b)=1$
$0.2+0.4+0.3+\mathbb P(X=b)=1$
$\implies\mathbb P(X=b)=0.1$

$\mathbb E(X)=\displaystyle\sum_{x\in\{0,2,a,b\}}x\mathbb P(X=x)=2.8$
$0\mathbb P(X=0)+2\mathbb P(X=2)+a\mathbb P(X=a)+b\mathbb P(X=b)=2.8$
$0.8+0.3a+0.1b=2.8$
$0.3a+0.1b=2$

$a+b=6\implies0.3a+0.1b=0.2a+0.1(6)=2$
$0.2a+0.6=2\implies0.2a=1.4\implies a=7$
