Answer:

The Final answer is  option D ) 10

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

x + 4y = 18     ......................Equation( 1 )

x - 4y = 2        ......................Equation( 2 )

To Find:

x =?

Solution:

Adding Equation ( 1 ) and ( 2 ) we get

x+4y+x-4y=18+2\\\\2x=20\\\\\therefore x =\frac{20}{10} \\\\\therefore x =10

The Final answer is  option D ) 10

The mathematics department of a college has 15 male professors, 9 female professors, 6 male teaching assistants, and 12 female t
Vesnalui [34]

Given:

The number of male professors = 15.

The number of female professors = 9.

The number of male teaching assistants = 6.

The number of female teaching assistants = 12.

A person is selected randomly from the group.

Required:

We need to find the probability that the selected person is a professor or a male.

Explanation:

The total number of people in the group = 15+9+6+12 = 42

n(S) =The total number of people in the group

n(S)=42

Let A be the event that the selected person is a professor or a male.

The number of people who are professors or male = 15+9+6 = 30

n(A)= The number of people who are professors or male.

n(A)=30

Let P(A) be the probability that the selected person is a professor or a male.

P(A)=\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}P(A)=\frac{30}{42}P(A)=\frac{15}{21}=\frac{5}{7}

Final answer:

The probability that the selected person is a professor or a male is 5/7.

Write the standard form of the equation of the line through the given points.
fenix001 [56]
You first have to find the slope using the slope formula.  That looks like this with our values:  \frac{-2-(-1)}{5-(-3)}=- \frac{1}{8}.  So the slope is -1/8.  Use one of the points to first write the equation in y = mx + b form.  We have an x and a y to use from one of the points and we also have the slope we just found.  Filling in accordingly to solve for b gives us -2=5(- \frac{1}{8})+b  and  -2=- \frac{5}{8}+b.  Adding 5/8 to both sides and getting a common denominator gives us that  b=- \frac{11}{8}.  Writing our slope-intercept form we have y=- \frac{1}{8}x- \frac{11}{8}.  Standard form for a line is Ax + By = C...no fractions allowed.  So let's get rid of that 8 by multiplying each term by 8 to get 8y = -x - 11.  Add x to both sides to get it into the correct form:  x + 8y = -11
