We have 13 total shapes and 7 of them meet the criteria, so the probability is:
<span>
</span>P(<span>Square or Triange) = </span>\frac{7}{13}

Total shapes:
5 + 2 + 2 + 4 = 13
Probability of triangle: 2/13
Probability of square: 5/13
Probability of triangle or square: 2/ 13 + 5/13
= 7/13

An office supply catalog gives a description of bookshelves that includes the following variables. Which of these variables is c
lesantik [10]

Categorical variables can assume values from a range of possible options, whereas quantitative variables can assume possibly infinitely many values from a certain number range.

So, the answer is "the colour of the bookshelf", because there can only be a limited number of possible colours for the bookshelf, whereas its width (no matter the unit measure) and height could be any number.

Solve the system of equations 5x+9y+9z=5 4x+9y+6z=10 2x+2y+5z=9
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

{x,y,z} = {-116,28,37}

Step-by-step explanation:

// Solve equation [3] for the variable  z  

 

 [3]    5z = -2x - 2y + 9

 [3]    z = -2x/5 - 2y/5 + 9/5

__________________________________________________________

// Plug this in for variable  z  in equation [1]

  [1]    5x + 9y + 9•(-2x/5-2y/5+9/5) = 5

  [1]    7x/5 + 27y/5 = -56/5

  [1]    7x + 27y = -56

__________________________________________________________

// Plug this in for variable  z  in equation [2]

  [2]    4x + 9y + 6•(-2x/5-2y/5+9/5) = 10

  [2]    8x/5 + 33y/5 = -4/5

  [2]    8x + 33y = -4

__________________________________________________________

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y  

 

 [2]    33y = -8x - 4

 [2]    y = -8x/33 - 4/33

__________________________________________________________

// Plug this in for variable  y  in equation [1]

  [1]    7x + 27•(-8x/33-4/33) = -56

  [1]    5x/11 = -580/11

  [1]    5x = -580

__________________________________________________________

// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x  

  [1]    5x = - 580  

  [1]    x = - 116

__________________________________________________________

// By now we know this much :

   x = -116

   y = -8x/33-4/33

   z = -2x/5-2y/5+9/5

__________________________________________________________

// Use the  x  value to solve for  y  

   y = -(8/33)(-116)-4/33 = 28

__________________________________________________________  

// Use the  x  and  y  values to solve for  z  

 z = -(2/5)(-116)-(2/5)(28)+9/5 = 37

To approximate the number of bees in a hive, multiply the number of bees that leave the hive in one minute by 3 and divide by 0.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

There are about 5,357 bees in the hive

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----->  the number of bees that leave the hive in one minute

y -----> the approximate number of bees in a hive

we know that

The formula to calculate the approximate number of bees in a hive is equal to

y=\frac{3x}{0.014}

For x=25

substitute

y=\frac{3(25)}{0.014}

y=5,357\ bees

therefore

There are about 5,357 bees in the hive
