Solve the simultaneous equation X+3y=13 X-y=5

Mathematics
1 answer:
Andru [333]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 7

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above question, we are given 2 equations which are simultaneous. To solve this equation, we have to find the values of x and y

x + 3y = 13 ........ Equation 1

x - y = 5...........Equation 2

From Equation 2,

x = 5 + y

Substitute 5 + y for x in Equation 1

x + 3y = 13 ........ Equation 1

5 + y + 3y = 13

5 + 4y = 13

4y = 13 - 5

4y = 8

y = 8/4

y = 2

Since y = 2, substitute , 2 for y in Equation 2

x - y = 5...........Equation 2

x - 2 = 5

x = 5 + 2

x = 7

Therefore, x = 7 and y = 2

Explain why all squares must be rectangles but not all rectangles are squares
Neko [114]
A square is a quadrilateral with all four angles right angles and all four sides of the same length. ... Thus every square is a rectangle because it is a quadrilateral with all four angles right angles. However not every rectangle is a square, to be a square its sides must have the same length.

Suppose the number of hits a webpage receives follows a Poisson distribution. The average number of hits per minute is 2.4.
JulijaS [17]

Answer: a) P(x=0) = 0.0907, b) P(x≥10) = 0.7986

Step-by-step explanation: the probability mass function of a possion probability distribution is given as

P(x=r) = (e^-λ)×(λ^r) /r!

Where λ = fixed rate at which the event is occurring and each event is independent of each other = 2.4

a) P(x= at least one) = P(x≥1)

P(x≥1) = 1 - P(x<1)

But P(x<1) = P(x=0) { we can not continue to negative values because our values of x can only take positive values of integer}

Hence, P(x≥1) = 1 - P(x=0)

P(x=0) = e^-2.4 * 2.4^0/(0!)

P(x=0) = 0.0907×1/1

P(x=0) = 0.0907

b) if the average number of hits in 1 minutes is 2.4 then for 5 minutes we have 2.4×5 = 12.

Hence λ = 12.

P(x= at least 10) =P(x≥10) = 1 - P(x≤9)

P(x≤9) will be gotten using a cumulative possion probability distribution table whose area is to the left of the distribution.

From the table P(x≤9) = 0.2014.

P(x≥10) = 1 - 0.20140

P(x≥10) = 0.7986

What interest is needed to earn $137.50 on a deposit of $500 for five years if it earns simple interest?
sineoko [7]

Answer:

5.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Simple interest =  $137.50

Principal= $500

time = 5 years

We want to find the rate  R

Simple interest= PRT/100

137.50 = 500*R*5/100

137.50=2500R/100

cross multiply

137.5*100= 2500R

13750= 2500R

divide both sides by 2500

R= 13750/2500

R=5.5%

Hence the rate is 5.5%
