Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2)
a) elimination method
b) substitution method
c) substitution method
For the first part we can elimate the y variable by subtracting the equations. We can then find the value of x.
For the second part we can substitute y as 2x+5 in the second equation and solve for x.
For the third part we can substitute y as 4x+3 in the first equation and solve for x.

Answer:
x = 0
y = 5
z = -5.
Step-by-step explanation:
X-5y-z=-20
-2x-y-6z=25
-x-4y-z=-15
Add equation 1 and 3:
-9y - 2z = -35 .......... A
Multiply the first equation by 2:
2x - 10y - 2z = -40
Now add this to equation 2:
-11y -8z = -15.............B
Now multiply equation A by -4:
36y + 8x = 140.........C
Add equations B and C:
25y = 125
y = 5.
Substitute for y in equation A:
-9*5 - 2z = -35
2z = -45 + 35 = - 10
z = -5.
Now find x by substituting for y and z in the first equation:
x - 5(5) - (-5) = -20
x - 20 = -20
x = 0.
Answer:
1 / 663
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's find the total number of ways you can pick 2 cards from the deck. This is 52 * 51 = 2652 because there are 52 cards available for your first pick, and after you pick one, you'll have 51 left for your second pick.
There are 4 5's (one for every suite) and only 1 Queen of Hearts in a deck of cards. Therefore, the total number of successful outcomes will be 4 * 1 = 4.
The probability of picking a 5 and then a Queen of Hearts is 4 / 2652 =
1 / 663. Hope this helps!
Answer:
12 tiles will fit
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 foot is 6 inch
6 inch times 12 is 6ft
-4/5 and -1/2
Taking the LCM of the 2 fractions we get the common denominator 10
-8/10 and - 5/10
Now we can see the second fraction (-5/10) is bigger
Thus the friend is wrong
