Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
P(6) = ⅙
Expected no. of trials for first 6:
1 ÷ (1/6) = 6
Answer:
The values of the 2 numbers whose sum is 13 and difference is 3, are: {8 ; 5}.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
3x +4y = 118
5x+6y =180
y= $25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = the cost of a flashlight
Let y = the cost of a sleeping bag
3x +4y = 118
5x+6y =180
Multiply the first equation by -5
-5(3x +4y) = -5*118
-15x -20y = -590
Multiply the second equation by 3
3(5x+6y) =3*180
15x + 18y = 540
Add the modified equations together.
We are using elimination to eliminate the variable x
-15x -20y = -590
15x + 18y = 540
----------------------------
-2y = -50
Divide by -2
-2y/-2 = -50/-2
y =25
Each sleeping bag costs $25
Answer:
10 five-point questions and 40 two-point questions
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the total number of five-point questions and y represent the total number of two-point questions.
Equation 1: 5x+2y=130
Equation 2: x+y=50
Multiplying Equation 2 by 2: 2x+2y=100 (Equation 3)
(Equation 1) - (Equation 3): 3x=30
x=10
Substituting x=10 into x+y=50: 10+y=50
y=40
Therefore, there are 10 five-point questions and 40 two-point questions.
<h2><u>Check</u></h2>
Substituting x=10 and y=40 into Equation 1:
LHS=5x+2y=5(10)+2(40)=50+80=130
RHS=130
LHS=RHS
Substituting x=10 and y=40 into Equation 2:
LHS=x+y=10+40=50
RHS=50
LHS=RHS
Since in both cases the left-hand side is equal to the right-hand side, the answer is correct.
(LHS: left-hand side, RHS: right-hand side)
