Answer:
x= 5,-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of marbles : 12
amount of blue marbles : 4
4/12 = 1/3 or 33%
the probability of choosing a blue marble 1/3 or 33%
Answer:
x = - 1, y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
y = - 2x + 4 → (1)
y = 6x + 12 → (2)
Substitute y = 6x + 12 into (1)
6x + 12 = - 2x + 4 ( add 2x to both sides )
8x + 12 = 4 ( subtract 12 from both sides )
8x = - 8 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = - 1
Substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y
Substituting into (2)
y = 6(- 1) + 12 = - 6 + 12 = 6
Solution is (- 1, 6 )
