The Answer is b: x = 18, y = -20

Proof:

Solve the following system:
{4 x + 3 y = 12 | (equation 1)
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{4 x + 3 y = 12 | (equation 2)

Subtract 4/7 × (equation 1) from equation 2:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y/7 = (-20)/7 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by 7:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)

Subtract 5 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{7 x+0 y = 126 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 7:
{x+0 y = 18 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 18, y = -20

4(x-5) +2 =x+3 <br><br> I need help on this ! I don’t get it picture above !
algol [13]

Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

4(x-5)+2=x+3 As the first step says, distribute the 4 (multiply all numbers in the parentheses by 4).

4x-20+2=x-3 Combine like terms. For example, the -20 and 2 are like terms because they are both their own numbers and not attached to a variable.

4x-18=x-3       Subtract x from each side. Now, we can get x to only one side.

<u>-x       -x</u>

3x-18=-3         Add 18 to both sides.

  <u>+18 +18</u>

3x=-15            Divide both sides by 3.

<u>/3   /3</u>

x=-5

I hope this helped you!! Have a great day c:

A test for syphilis gives a positive result with probability 0.98 when tested on a person who has the disease. The test gives a
mestny [16]

Answer:

The probability that an individual has the disease and has a positive test result is:

9.8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of a true positive result for a test of syphilis = 0.98 or 98%

Probability of a false negative result for a test of syphilis = 0.02 or 2% (100 - 98)

Probability of a true negative result for a test of syphilis = 0.9 or 90%

Probability of a false negative result for a test of syphilis = 0.1 or 10% (100 - 90)

Therefore, the probability that an individual has the disease and has a positive test result = 0.98 * 0.1 = 0.098 = 9.8%
