Answer:

the solution is (-4, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by 2. This produces 4x + 2y = -14.

Now combine this result with the second equation:

4x + 2y = -14

-3x - 2y = 10

------------------

x = -4

Subbing -4 for x in the first equation yields 2x - 4 = -7, or 2x = -3.

Then x = -3/2, and the solution is (-4, -3)

A company has 8 mechanics and 6 electricians. If an employee is selected at random, what is the probability that they are an ele

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

$Probability = \frac{3}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Electrician = 6

Mechanic = 8

Required

Determine the probability of selecting an electrician

First, we need the total number of employees;

$Total = n(Electrician) + n(Mechanic)$

$Total = 6 + 8$

$Total = 14$

Next, is to determine the required probability using the following formula;

$Probability = \frac{n(Electrician)}{Total}$

$Probability = \frac{6}{14}$

Divide numerator and denominator by 2

$Probability = \frac{3}{7}$

<em>Hence, the probability of selecting an electrician is 3/7</em>
