X-y=7
3x-2y=8
Multiplying equation I by 2;
2x-2y=14
3x-2y=8
Subtracting equation 1 from equation II;
x=-6
Replacing for x in equation II
3(-6)-2y=8
-18-2y=8
2y=-18-8
2y=-26
y=-13

An urn contains 5 red, 6 blue, and 8 green balls. If a set of 3 balls is randomly selected, what is the probability that each of
monitta

Answer:

As a fraction, the answer is exactly 86/969

In decimal form, the answer is approximately 0.08875

=====================================================

Work Shown:

The assumption is that no replacements are made for each selection.

5 red, 6 blue, 8 green

5+6+8 = 19 total

A = P(3 red) = (5/19)*(4/18)*(3/17) = 10/969

B = P(3 blue) = (6/19)*(5/18)*(4/17) = 20/969

C = P(3 green) = (8/19)*(7/18)*(6/17) = 56/969

D = P(3 all same color)

D = A+B+C

D = 10/969 + 20/969 + 56/969

D = (10+20+56)/969

D = 86/969

D = 0.08875

Graph the following lines and write the equation in slope-intercept form. With y intercept of −3 and an x intercept of −4.5.
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

y=-\frac{2}{3}x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line we need 2 points. We know:

  • If the y-intercept of the line is -3 then the point is (0,-3).
  • If the x-intercept of the line is -4.5 then the point is (-4.5,0).

Using these two point, we will find the slope and then substitute it into the point slope form y-y_1=m(x-x_1) with a point.

Slope: m=\frac{0--3}{-4.5-0}=\frac{0+3}{-4.5}=\frac{3}{-4.5}=-0.6667

This decimal is -2/3. We will now substitute -2/3 and (0,-3) into the point slope form.

y--3=-\frac{2}{3}(x-0)\\y+3=-\frac{2}{3}(x)\\y+3=-\frac{2}{3}x\\y=-\frac{2}{3}x-3

Y = 2x - 8 3x - 2y = 13​
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

{x,y} = {3,-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  y

 [1]    y = 2x - 8

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [2]

  [2]    3x - 2•(2x-8) = 13

  [2]    -x = -3

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  x

  [2]    x = 3

// By now we know this much :

   x = 3

   y = 2x-8

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y

   y = 2(3)-8 = -2

Solution :

{x,y} = {3,-2}
