A could be 2 while B could be 3, so -2a+3b turns into -4+9, which equals 5.

From what I know you can't really solve a a single equation with two-variables so it's just a matter of trial and error.

Just try plugging in a small number like 2 for a just to try it and you get 8b^2=72.

Divide everything by 8 to isolate b and you get that b^2=9.

Square root everything and you'll find that b=3. This is just one possible combination, I'm sure there are many more but this is obviously the one that was intended to be found.

Now that we know that a=2 and b=3 just plug them into the equation.

-2(2)+3(3)=?

-4+9=?

5

Sorry about having to use this ^ symbol, the equation maker is not working.

A and B are two events. Which statement about the conditional probability is true?
nata0808 [166]
The answer 
by using fundamental definition
<span>The conditional probability of event B given event A is P(B|A)=P(A and B)/P(A) when two events are not independent.
so the only true answer is A, because </span>P(B|A)=P(A) if A and B are independents<span>

Temka [501]

Answer: x=−5

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+32=5x−3−4x

8x+32=x−3

8x+32−x=−3

7x+32=−3

7x=−3−32

7x=−35

x=-  35/7

The sum of two numbers is 20. One number is one less than twice the second number. What are the two numbers?
murzikaleks [220]

Answer: Hope this helps.

13, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Number one is 13

Number two is 7

Well 7 x 2 = 14, 14-1 = 7, and 7+13 = 20 making the answers true.

I figured out this number by eliminating numbers, I started with 5, ended with 8 to make a range of the possible numbers. Since 5 was too low and 8 was too high I knew the number had to be either 6 or 7, so I did 7 and I got the answer.
