Y = -1/3x + 6 . . . (1)
x = -6 . . . (2)
Putting (2) into (1), gives
y = -1/3(-6) + 6 = 2 + 6 = 8

Solution is (-6, 8)

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

34 games

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of losses be $l$

let the number of victories be $v$

the Phoenix murmur had 12 more victories than losses:

$v=l+12$

The number of victories they had was one more than two times the number of losses:

$v=2l+1$

We have 2 expressions for $v$ , equating these 2, we can solve for $l$ :

$l+12=2l+1\\12-1=2l-l\\11=l$

So 11 games, they lost.

Using this value, we can plug into the 1st equation to solve for v:

$v=l+12\\v=11+12\\v=23$

So 23 games, they won.

Given that no draws, they played a total of 23 + 11 = 34 games this season

Answer:

19.35% probability that five will have completed four years of college

Step-by-step explanation:

For each individual chosen, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have completed fourr years of college, or they have not. The probability of an adult completing four years of college is independent of any other adult. So the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
