Multiply the first equation by -1
-3x-y=-4
2x+y=5
Add them up
-x=1
So x=-1
And y=7
So the first option is correct
To calculate the tax multiply $860 by .06 (6%) to get $34.40.
To calculate the total amount you'll pay add $34.40 to $860 to get $894.40.
<span>3 of the 20 toothbrushes are defective, so the initial probability of selecting a defective toothbrush on the first try is 3/20. After that, there will be 2 defective toothbrushes in the remaining 19, so the probability of selecting one of those on the 2nd try will be 2/19. To get the probability of those two events happening sequentially, we multiply the two probabilities. Thus (3/20)*(2/19) = 6/380 = 0.0157, or about 1.6%.</span>
Based on the above scenario, the sales director conducted an <u>experiment</u>.
- Because a treatment <u>was </u>applied to the sales representatives.
- The the best statistical study for this situation because the sales director is trying to establish <u>correlation</u>.
<h3>What is an experiment?</h3>
An experiment is known to be a method that is et up with the aim to test a given hypothesis as a component of a scientific method.
In an experiment, there are the two key variables which are the independent and dependent variables. The independent variable is known to be a controlled or it is tested against the dependent variable.

<h3>Given Equation:</h3>
x = 7 + 3y
or, x - 3y - 7 = 0 ........ (i)
5x + 6y = 14
or, 5x + 6y - 14 = 0 .........(ii)
<h3>To Find:</h3>
The value of x and y.
<h3>Solution:</h3>
By dividing eq. ii by 2, we get
5/2x + 3y - 7 = 0 ........ (iii)
By adding eq. i and eq. iii, we get
15/2x = 0
or, <u>x = 0</u> ........(iv)
By putting eq.(iv) in eq. (i), we get
0 - 3y - 7 = 0
or, -3y = 7
or, <u>y = </u><u>-</u><u>7/</u><u>3</u>
<h2>Answer: ( 0, -7/3 )</h2>
The value of x and y is 0 and -7/3 respectively.
