is simply the difference of both numbers of course, the price it was sold minus the price it was bought at.

Answer:
bx = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
- 2(bx - 5) = 16
- 2bx + 10 = 16
- 2bx + 10 - 10 = 16 - 10
- 2bx = 6
- 2bx ÷ - 2 = 6 ÷ - 2
bx = - 3
Answer:
- (x-4.5)^2 +(y +5)^2 = 30.25
- x = (1/8)y^2 +(1/2)y +(1/2)
- y^2/36 -x^2/64 = 1
- x^2/16 +y^2/25 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Complete the square for both x and y by adding a constant equal to the square of half the linear term coefficient. Subtract 15, and rearrange to standard form.
(x^2 -9x +4.5^2) +(y^2 +10y +5^2) = 4.5^2 +5^2 -15
(x -4.5)^2 +(y +5)^2 = 30.25 . . . . . write in standard form
Important features: center = (4.5, -5); radius = 5.5.
__
2. To put this in the form x=f(y), we need to add 8x, then divide by 8.
x = (1/8)y^2 +(1/2)y +(1/2)
Important features: vertex = (0, -2); focus = (2, -2); horizontal compression factor = 1/8.
__
3. We want y^2/a^2 -x^2/b^2 = 1 with a=36 and b=(36/(3/4)^2) = 64:
y^2/36 -x^2/64 = 1
__
4. In the form below, "a" is the semi-axis in the x-direction. Here, that is 8/2 = 4. "b" is the semi-axis in the y-direction, which is 5 in this case. We want x^2/a^2 +y^2/b^2 = 1 with a=4 and b=5.
x^2/16 +b^2/25 = 1

The first attachment shows the circle and parabola; the second shows the hyperbola and ellipse.
Answer:
sin 50°
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
the probability is 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the coins are randomly selected, the probability of pulling a dime first is the number of dimes (4) divided by the total number of coins (10).
p(dime first) = 4/10 = 2/5
Then, having drawn a dime, there are 9 coins left, of which 5 are nickels. The probability of randomly choosing a nickel is 5/9.
The joint probability of these two events occurring sequentially is the product of their probabilities:
p(dime then nickel) = (2/5)×(5/9) = 2/9
_____
<em>Alternate solution</em>
You can go at this another way. You can list all the pairs of coins that can be drawn. There are 90 of them: 10 first coins and, for each of those, 9 coins that can be chosen second. Of these 90 possibilities, there are 4 dimes that can be chosen first, and 5 nickels that can be chosen second, for a total of 20 possible dime-nickel choices out of the 90 total possible outcomes.
p(dime/nickel) = 20/90 = 2/9
