Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

The word decreased indicates the use of subtraction, so to figure out our answer we do the opposite, -1 + 24 = 23, after that we then subtract, 23 - 24 = -1, there for your answer should be 23 - 24 = -1, or more simply the number that has to be decreased to make the statement true is 23

Instructions: Match each equations with correct type of event.
Mazyrski [523]

The question is incomplete. Below you will find the missing contents.

The correct match of events with order are,

  • P(A)P(B|A) - Dependent event
  • P(A)+P(B) - Mutually exclusive events
  • P(A and B)/P(A) - Conditional events
  • P(A) . P(B) - Independent Events
  • P(A)+P(B) -P(A and B) - not Mutually exclusive events.

When two events A and B are independent then,

P(A and B)=P(A).P(B)

when A and B are dependent events then,

P(A and B) = P(A) . P(B|A)

When two events A and B are mutually exclusive events then,

P(A and B)=0

So, P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B)

P(A) + P(B) = P(A or B)

When events are not mutually exclusive then the general relation is,

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

If the probability of the event B conditioned by A is given by,

\mathrm{P(B|A)=\frac{P(A~and~B)}{P(A)}}

Hence the correct match are -

  • \mathrm{P(A)P(B|A)\rightarrow} Dependent event
  • \mathrm{P(A)+P(B)}\rightarrow Mutually exclusive events
  • \mathrm{\frac{P(A ~and ~B)}{P(A)}\rightarrow} Conditional events
  • \mathrm{P(A) . P(B)\rightarrow} Independent Events
  • \mathrm{P(A)+P(B) -P(A ~and ~B)\rightarrow} not Mutually exclusive events.

The solution of the equation is  x=\frac{11}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify an equation of x

  • Simplify each side of the equation
  • Collect x in side and the numerical terms in the other side
  • Find the value of x

∵ The equation is 2x + \frac{1-x}{4}=3

- Multiply all terms of the equation by 4 to cancel the denominator

 of the 2nd term in the left hand side

∵ The equation is 4(2x) +4 (\frac{1-x}{4})=4(3)

∴ 8x + (1 - x) = 12

∴ 8x + 1 - x = 12

- Add like terms

∴ (8x - x) + 1 = 12

∴ 7x + 1 = 12

- Subtract 1 from both sides

∴ 7x = 11

- Divide both sides by 7

∴ x=\frac{11}{7}

The solution of the equation is  x=\frac{11}{7}

EASY MATHS PLS HELP​
Fofino [41]

Answer:

(1.25, - 5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

- 4x + 3y = - 20 → (1)

4x + 2y = - 5 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the x- term

5y = - 25 ( divide both sides by 5 )

y = - 5

Substitute y = - 5 into either of the 2 equations and solve for x

Substituting into (2)

4x + 2(- 5) = - 5, that is

4x - 10 = - 5 ( add 10 to both sides )

4x = 5 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = \frac{5}{4} = 1.25

Solution is (1.25, - 5 )
