<span>(1) 2x + y = 9
</span><span>(2) 8x – 2y = 6
</span>
You can eliminate the x or the y. I am going to eliminate the y

First multiply the first equation 2x + y = 9  by 2.
2x + y = 9
2(2x + y = 9)
4x +2y = 18
Now we have a new equation that we can use and we can eliminate the y from the other equation because +2y - 2y = 0. Lets do that now and solve for  x.

4x +2y = 18
8x – 2y = 6
12x = 24
12x / 12 = 24 / 12
x = 2
So we found the value of x, which is 2. To find y, insert 2 into one of the original equations. I am going to use 2x + y = 9
2x + y = 9
2(2) + y = 9
4 + y = 9
-4 + 4 + y = 9 - 4
y = 9 - 4
y = 5
y = 5.

Our point is at (x, y) = (2,5)
x = 2
y = 5

Answer:

As the ice cubes get heated, the particles of the ice also start to heat up. This way, through conduction and radiation, the particles start bouncing on one another and the heat transfers. this way, they particles begin to make way for the other, resulting in the solid changing to liquid, because the particles are now farther apart.

Hope this helps

A widget company produces 25 widgets a day,5 of which are defective.Find the probability of selecting 5 widgets from the 25 prod
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

0.292

Step-by-step explanation:

Combinations can be used to solve the following problem.

We are choosing 5 widgets from 25 = ²⁵C₅

We want to select zero widgets from defective widgets = ⁵C₀

From the 20 non-defective widgets we want to select 5 = ²⁰C₅

So the probability is:

P = ( ⁵C₀ * ²⁰C₅) / ²⁰C₅

P = (1 * 15504) / 53130

= 15504/ 53130

=0.292 ..
