3x + 4y = 5 X- 3y = -7 Solve by substitution

1 answer:

7 0

X = 3y - 7
3x + 4y = 5

3(3y - 7) + 4y = 5
9y - 21 + 4y = 5

13y - 21 = 5

13y = 26

y = 2

x - 3(2)= -7

x - 6 = -7

x = -1

(-1, 2)

Two cards are drawn from a standard deck of cards without replacement. Find the probability of drawing a heart and a club in tha

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

4/663

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome

Since we are to draw from a pack of card, the total outcome will be 52

Since there are 4 hearts;

Pr(selecting heart) = 4/52 = 1/13

If a club is then selected without replacement, the total number of card remaining will be 51;

Pr(selecting a heart) = 4/51

probability of drawing a heart and a club in that order = 4/52 * 4/51

probability of drawing a heart and a club in that order = 16/2652

probability of drawing a heart and a club in that order = 4/663

Solve 0.05p-0.02(5-2p)=0.05(p-2)-0.12

Montano1993 [528]

$0.05p-0.02(5-2p)=0.05(p-2)-0.12$

$0.05p-0.02(5-2p)=0.05(p-2)-0.12:p$

$
0.05p-0.1+0.04p=0.05p-0.1-0.12
 
$ $|Expand \ the \ equation|$

$0.09p-0.1=0.05p-0.1-0.12
 
$

$0.09p-0.1=0.05p-0.22$

$
0.09p-0.1-0.05p=-0.22
 

$ $|Subtract \ 0.05p \ from \ both \ sides|$

$
0.04p-0.1=-0.22
 
$

$
0.04p=-0.22+0.1
 
$ $|Add \ 0.1 \ to \ both \ sides|$

$
0.04p=-0.12
 
$

$0.04p/0.04=-0.12/0.04
$ $|Divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 0.04|$

$p=-3$

What is the y-intercept of the line perpendicular to the line...

Dominik [7]

Answer:

D) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes.

The line: $y=\frac{3}{4} x+3$ has a slope of $\frac{3}{4}$ as it is in y=mx+b form, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

Since the slope is $\frac{3}{4}$ , we see that the negative reciprocal slope is $-\frac{4}{3}$ , as $\frac{4}{3}$ is the reciprocal (flip the numerator and denominator).
