Iteru [2.4K]3 years ago
8 0

The answer after subtracting the following equation is x= -8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

  • -2x+7y=10 ----- eq(1) , 3x + 7y =2------ eq(2)

  • 7y+3x =2
  • 7y-2x = 10
  • subtracting eq 2 from eq 1 we get
  • 5x = -8
  • x= -8/5

a game consists of randomly choosing a bag (labelled 1, 2 or 3) out of a choice of 100, and then again randomly, picking a ball
Anton [14]

Answer:

hello your question has some missing information attached below is the missing information

answer :  112 black balls

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Each bag contains ; 10 balls

Total number of ball = 100 balls

<u>first: calculate the number of Black balls to be picked from the three bags</u>

From bag 1 = 0.4 * 0.35 * 10 = 1.4 balls

From bag 2 =  0.8 * 0.45 * 10 = 3.6 balls

From bag 3 = 0.3 * 0.2 * 10 = 0.6 ball

Total black balls picked = 5.6

∴ percentage of black balls picked given that each bag contains 10

5.6 / 10 * Total balls available  =  56 balls = 56% of 100 balls

Hence If the player plays this game 200 times the number of black balls he will pick = 56% * 200 =  112 balls
