Answer:
7x +2y =24 --------- (i)
8x +2y= 30 ---------(ii)
Subtracting eqn. (i) & (ii)
7x +2y =24
8x +2y= 30
- - -
___________
-x = - 6
Putting the value of x in eqn. (i)
7*6 +2y =24
42 +2y =24
2y =-18
y = - 9
Hence, x=6 and y= - 9
Hope it helps!!
Answer:
0.40
Step-by-step explanation:
to find out the probability that at least one of a pair of fair dice lands of 5, given that the sum of the dice is 8
Let A = sum of dice is 8
B = one lands in 5
P(B/A) = P(AB)/P(A) by conditional probability
P(AB) = sum is 8 and one is 5
So (5,3) or (3,5)
P(A) = sum is 8.
i.e. (2,6) (2,6) (3,5) (5,3) (4,4)
Required probability
= n(AB)/n(A)
=
