x should equal -2 and y should equal -3 to solve this i multiplied the first equation by 2 then got rid of the 4y and -4y then i added the 14x to the 9 equaling 23x and added the -40 to the -6 which became 23x=-46 i solved this getting -s for x, then i plugged that into the equations to get y which was -3

A box contains 10 balls, of which 3 are red, 2 are yellow, and 5 are blue. Five balls are randomly selected with replacement. Ca
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

The required probability is 0.1.

Step-by-step explanation:

red balls = 3

yellow balls =  2

blue balls = 5

Selected balls = 5

Number of elemnets in sample space = 10 C 5 = 1260

Ways to choose 1 red ball and 4 other colours =  (3 C 1 ) x (7 C 4) = 105

Ways to choose 5 balls of other colours = 7 C 5 = 21

So, the probability is

\frac{105}{1260} + \frac {21}{1260}\\\\\frac{126}{1260}=0.1

The common ratio of a geometric series is 3 and the sum of the first 8 terms is 3280.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

The first term of the geometric series is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the first term of a geometric series, given the common ratio, and the sum of the first 8 terms.

Mathematically, the sum of terms in a geometric series can be calculated as;

S = a(r^n-1)/( r-1)

where a is the first term that we are looking for

r is the common ratio which is 3 according to the question

n is the number of terms which is 8

S is the sum of the number of terms which is 3280 according to the question

Plugging these values, we have

3280 = a(3^8 -1)/(3-1)

3280 = a( 6561-1)/2

3280 = a(6560)/2

3280 = 3280a

a = 3280/3280

a = 1
