1.
y=3x+3 \\
y=2x+8 \\ \\
\hbox{substitute 3x+3 for y in the 2nd equation:} \\
3x+3=2x+8 \\
3x-2x=8-3 \\
x=5 \\ \\
y=2x+8=2 \times 5+8=10+8=18 \\ \\
\boxed{(x,y)=(5,18)}

2.
x+3y=17 \\
2x+3y=22 \\ \\
\hbox{solve the 1st equation for x:} \\
x+3y=17 \\
x=17-3y \\ \\
\hbox{substitute 17-3y for x in the 2nd equation:} \\
2(17-3y)+3y=22 \\
34-6y+3y=22 \\
-6y+3y=22-34 \\
-3y=-12 \\
y=\frac{-12}{-3} \\
y=4 \\ \\
x=17-3y=17-3 \times 4=17-12=5 \\ \\
\boxed{(x,y)=(5,4)}

Kite A B C D is shown. Lines are drawn from point A to point C and from point B to point D and intersect. In the kite, AC = 10 a
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

30 u^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the area of kite ABCD is shown below:

Given data

AC = 10 ;

BD = 6

As we can see from the attached figure that the Kite is a quadrilateral as it involves two adjacent sides i.e to be equal

Now the area of quadrilateral when the diagonals are given

So, it is

\text { area of kite }=\frac{1}{2} \times d_{1} d_{2}

where,

d_{1}=10\ and\ d_{2}=6

So, the area of the quadrilateral is

=\frac{1}{2}(10)(6)\\\\=30 u^{2}

The mailing list of an agency that markets scuba-diving trips to the Florida Keys contains 78% males and 22% females. The agency
choli [55]

Answer:

a) 0.98% probability that 17 of the 29 people are men.

b) 3.86% probability that the first woman is reached on the 8th call

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person chosen by the agency, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is a man, or it is a woman. The probability of selecting a man or a women in each trial is independent from other trials. So we use the binomial probability distribution 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}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

(a) What is the probability that 17 of the 29 people are men?

This is P(X = 17) when n = 29, p = 0.78. So

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

P(X = 17) = C_{29,17}.(0.78)^{17}.(0.22)^{12} = 0.0098

0.98% probability that 17 of the 29 people are men.

(b) What is the probability that the first woman is reached on the 8th call?

On the first 7 trials, all men, each with a 78% probability.

On the 8th trial, a women, with a 22% probability. So

P = (0.78)^{7}*0.22 = 0.0386

3.86% probability that the first woman is reached on the 8th call
