Since y = 5x-1, we can fill it into 3x + 3y = -3. First, let's look at relating to a simpler equation. Let's say that x + y = 9 and y = 3 + 5. Now, we can fill it in to get that x + (3 + 5) = 9. Now, we know that 3+5 is 8, so x + 8 = 9. Now, x = 1. Likewise, we can do the same. For 3x + 3y = -3, all we need to do is to switch the y in 3x + 3y = -3 with 5x - 1. So it would become 3x + 3(5x - 1) = -3. Now we distribute to get 3x + 15x - 3 = -3. Now add three to both sides to get 3x + 15x = 0. Now simplify to get 18x = 0. Now we know that x = 0. Now fill x into y = 5x - 1. So y = 5(0) - 1. Now we know that y = -1.

To check fill in the answer to 3x + 3y = -3.
3(0) + 3(-1) = -3
0 + (-3) = -3
0 - 3 = -3
-3 = -3
Now that our check is completed we now know that x is 0 and y is -1.

On average 83.1% of welds performed by a particular welder are defective. if, in one day, the welder creates three welds. what i

Nuetrik [128]

Let p be 0.831 denote the percentage of defective welds and q be 0.169 denote the percentage of non-defective welds.

Using the binomial distribution, we want all three to be defective.
$P(X = 3) = \binom{3}{3}(p)^{3}{q}^{3 - 3}$
$P(X = 3) = \binom{3}{3}(0.831)^{3}(1)$
$P(X = 3) = (0.831)^{3} \approx 0.573856191$

Answer: $3\dfrac{2}{6}\ h$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Rami practices his saxophone for $\frac{5}{6}$ hour on 4 day each week

So, for a week she practices around

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{5}{6}\times 4\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{20}{6}$

Converting it into mixed fraction

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{20}{6}=\dfrac{18+2}{6}\\\\\Rightarrow 3\dfrac{2}{6}\ h$

Name the three different types of proofs you saw in this lesson. Give a description of each.

Colt1911 [192]

You already have the answer. It is "One type of proof is a two-column proof. It contains statements and reasons in columns. Another type is a paragraph proof, in which statements and reasons are written in words. A third type is a flowchart proof, which uses a diagram to show the steps of a proof." which looks correct to me.

What is the slope of the line containing the points (5,6) and (9,13)

Nataly_w [17]

You would subtract the y intercepts then the x intercepts. Subtract 13-6 then divide it by 9-6. That gets you a slope of 7 over 3
