Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Write out the 2 equations:

2x + y = -3

-2y = 6+4x

-You then pick a variable that you want to solve for. I chose to solve for y because it would be a bit easier.

-2y = 6 + 4x

-Divide both sides by -2 to isolate the variable

(-2y) / -2 = (6 + 4x) / -2

-it comes out to y = -3 -2x

-Now that you have the y you can plug in the value into the second equation.

2x + y = -3 ---> 2x + (-3 -2x) = -3

This can be simplified to:

2x - 3 - 2x = -3

The 2x's cancel out because there is a +2x and a -2x. You are left with a

-3 = -3. If you add 3 to both sides of the equation you end up with 0 = 0, which can be simplified to just 0.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Having the information on how many events there are and how many people in each event there would help me personally solve this

what i can tell you is its a probability thing a tree diagram is starting with something, like flipping a coin, and creating a branch for heads and tails, 0.5 for each branch. like the attachment I have on here. there's only 2 probable results from a coin, but if I have 5 events with 50 competitors I've created a lot more probable outcomes, it also depends on the events, if one of my competitors in 6'9" and ones 5'2" and the event is a dunk contest it would be slightly unfair and the probability of the person who is 5'2" changing your tree diagram :)
