Answer:
The two numbers are 5 and 1. Their product is 5
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 6 (*)
x - y = 4 (**)
Let (*) + (**)
--> (x+y) + (x-y) = 6 + 4
<=> 2x = 10 <=> x = 5
Substitute x= 5
(*) <=> 5 + y = 6
<=> y=1
Answer: (x,y) = (5,1)
Their product: x.y = 5x1 = 5
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability any one system works is 0.99
So the probability of any one system failing is 1-0.99 = 0.01, so basically a 1% chance of failure for any one system
Multiply out the value 0.01 with itself four times
0.01*0.01*0.01*0.01 = 0.000 000 01
I'm using spaces to make the number more readable
So the probability of all four systems failing is 0.00000001
Subtract this value from 1 to get
1 - 0.00000001 = 0.99999999
The answer is 0.99999999 which is what we'd expect. The probability of at least one of the systems working is very very close to 1 (aka 100%)
