<span><span><span><span><span><span>4x+5y = 11 and 2x+6y = 16
</span>Let's start by solving 4x+5y = 11 for the variable x.
<span>Move the 5y to the right hand side by subtracting 5y from both sides, like this:
</span><span>From the left hand side:
<span>5y - 5y = 0
</span></span><span>The answer is 4x
</span></span><span>From the right hand side:
<span>The answer is 11-5y</span></span><span>
Now, the equation reads:
4x = 11-5y 
To isolate the x, we have to divide both sides of the equation by theother variables
around the x on the left side of the equation.
</span><span>The last step is to divide both sides of the equation by 4 like this:
<span>To divide x by 1
</span><span>The x just gets copied along in the numerator.</span><span>The answer is x</span><span>4x ÷ 4 = x
</span><span>To divide 11-5y by 4</span><span>divide each term in 11-5y by 4 term by term.</span><span>11 ÷ 4 =11/4
</span><span>To divide y by 1
</span><span>The y just gets copied along in the numerator.</span></span><span>-5y ÷ 4 =</span><span>The solution to your equation is:
x =</span><span><span>Next, let's solve 2x+6y = 16 for the variable y.
<span>Move the 2x to the right hand side by subtracting 2x from both sides, like this:
</span><span>From the left hand side:
<span>2x - 2x = 0</span></span><span>The answer is 6y</span></span><span>From the right hand side:
<span>The answer is 16-2x</span></span><span>
Now, the equation reads:
6y = 16-2x 
To isolate the y, we have to divide both sides of the equation by theother variables
around the y on the left side of the equation.
</span><span>The last step is to divide both sides of the equation by 6 like this:
<span>To divide y by 1</span><span>The y just gets copied along in the numerator.</span><span>The answer is y</span><span>6y ÷ 6 = y</span><span>To divide 16-2x by 6</span><span>divide each term in 16-2x by 6 term by term.</span><span>16 ÷ 6 =</span><span>To divide x by 1</span><span>The x just gets copied along in the numerator.</span></span><span>-2x ÷ 6 =</span><span>The solution to your equation is:
y =</span><span>Now, plug the earlier result, x=11/4-5/4y, in for x everywhere it occurs in 
y=8/3-1/3x.
This gives y=8/3-1/3(11/4-5/4y). Now all we have to do is solve this for y,to have our first solution.
<span><span>8/3 evaluates to </span><span>1/3 evaluates to </span><span>11/4 evaluates to </span><span>5/4 evaluates to </span><span>Multiply y and</span><span>Multiply y and 1</span><span>The y just gets copied along.</span><span>The answer is y</span>y<span>5/4*y evaluates to </span><span>11/4-5/4*y evaluates to </span><span>Multiply by</span><span>we multiply by each term in term by term.</span>This is the distributive property of multiplication.<span>Multiply and</span>1<span> × =</span><span>Multiply and</span><span>Multiply 1 and y</span><span>The y just gets copied along.</span>y<span> × =</span><span>1/3*(11/4-5/4*y) evaluates to </span><span> - =</span><span>The answer is</span><span>8/3-1/3*(11/4-5/4*y) evaluates to </span><span>Move the to the left hand side by subtracting from both sides, like this:
From the left hand side:
<span>y - =</span></span><span>The answer is</span><span>From the right hand side:
<span> - = 0</span></span><span>The answer is</span><span>
Now, the equation reads:

To isolate the y, we have to divide both sides of the equation by theother variables
around the y on the left side of the equation.
</span><span>The last step is to divide both sides of the equation by like this:

y = 3</span><span>Lastly, to find the solution for x, we plug this answer for y into the earlier result that
x=11/4-5/4y.
This gives x=11/4-5/4(3). Now, simplify this.

The average number of claims per hour made to an insurance company is 3.
solong [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have it that x follows a poisson distribution.

λ is equal to 3

The poisson distribution is given by:

P(x) = e^-λ * λ^X/X!

λ = 3

X = 4

A. The question had already given us the X value to be 4

p(x = 4)

= e^-3 x 3⁴/4!

= e^-3 = 0.001

3⁴= 34

4! = 81

putting all values into p(x=4)

= .001x81/24

= 0.1680

b. for 3 good hours, we will have lamda to be;

3x3 = 9

p(x = 6)

= e^-9 * 9⁶/6!

= 0.0911

What is the solution to the system of equations?
elixir [45]

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

-3x-4y-3z=-7\\2x-6y+2z=3\\5x-2y+5z=9\\\\

Lets consider the equation 2.

Here we multiply the LHS and RHS with (-1).

-3x-4y-3z=-7\\-(2x-6y+2z)=-3\\5x-2y+5z=9\\\\

Hence,

-3x-4y-3z=-7\\-2x+6y-2z=-3\\5x-2y+5z=9\\\\

When we add the equations we get,

0x+0y+0z=-10+9\\Hence,\\0=-1

As 0 doesn't equal to -1, answer is d) No solution
