For any birth we have only two possible outcomes either boy or girl. So the chance of getting boy or girl on birth same which is 1/2.

The probability of getting baby boy or baby girl on any birth is

P(Boy) = P(Girl) = 0.5

If a couple has six children then probability that all are boys is

P( all six are boy) = (0.5)^6

= 0.015

The probability that all six are boy is 0.015

The sum of two numbers is at least 30 and the difference between the two numbers is less than 8. X and y are the two numbers suc
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1 Expert Answer

Let x and y be the two numbers. Then by assumptions we have x+y=30 and x-y=20. Hence, y=x-20 and by plugging this into the first equation we obtain x+x-20=30 or 2x=50 or x=25 and y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

So, divide 30 by 2 . That gives you 15 for x, 15 for y. Now, you have difference of six, divide by two, that equals 3.

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )

11

5x - y + 6 = 0 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

5x - y = - 6 ← in standard form

12

y + 1 = 2(x - 3) ← distribute parenthesis

y + 1 = 2x - 6 ( subtract y from both sides )

1 = 2x - y - 6 ( add 6 to both sides )

7 = 2x - y, thus

2x - y = 7 ← in standard form
