Answer:

x = 2

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Substitution: 2x - y = 5 3x + 2y = 4

2x - y = 5

-y = -2x + 5

y=2x - 5

3x + 2 (2x - 5) = 4 3x + 2y = 4

3x + (4x - 10) = 4 3(2) + 2y = 4

7x - 10 = 4 6 + 2y = 4

7x = 14 2y = -2

x = 2 y = -1

Answer:

x=2 and y=−1

Step-by-step explanation:

2x−y=5

2x−y+−2x=5+−2x

−y=−2x+5

−y

−1

−2x+5

−1

y=2x−5

substitute 2x−5 for y in 3x+2y=4

3x+2y=4

3x+2(2x−5)=4

7x−10=4

7x−10+10=4+10(Add 10 to both sides)

7x=14

(Divide both sides by 7)

x=2

Substitute 2 for x in y=2x−5:

y=2x−5

y=(2)(2)−5

y=−1(Simplify both sides of the equation)

The geometry was developed by a Greek mathematician called Euclid and developed to meet some practical need in surveying, construction, astronomy, and various crafts.

In this question,

Early geometry was a collection of empirically discovered principles concerning lengths, angles, areas, and volumes, which were developed to meet some practical need in surveying, construction, astronomy, and various crafts.

It was developed by a Greek mathematician called Euclid. This branch of geometry deals with terms like points, lines, surfaces, dimensions of the solids, etc.,

In several ancient cultures there developed a form of geometry suited to the relationships between lengths, areas, and volumes of physical objects. This geometry was codified in Euclid's Elements about 300 bce on the basis of 10 axioms, or postulates, from which several hundred theorems were proved by deductive logic.

Hence we can conclude that the geometry was developed by a Greek mathematician called Euclid and developed to meet some practical need in surveying, construction, astronomy, and various crafts.

Police estimate that 25% of drivers drive without their seat belts. If they stop 6 drivers at random, find the probability tha

Furkat [3]

Answer:

17.80% probability that all of them are wearing their seat belts.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each driver stopped, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are wearing their seatbelts, or they are not. The drivers are chosen at random, which mean that the probability of a driver wearing their seatbelts is independent from other drivers. So we use the normal probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
