by the use of elimination method

make all coefficients of subject to be eliminated similar..by multiplying the coefficients with one another

for eqn(i)

5(-10y+9x=-9)

-50y+45x=-45

for eqn(ii)

9(10y+5x=-5)

90y+45x=-45

-50y+45x=-45

90y+45x=-45

...subtract each set from the other...

we get

-140y+0=0

y=0

from eqn(i)

10y+5x=-5

0+5x=-5

x= -1

A coin, having probability p of landing heads, is continually flipped until at least one head and one tail have been flipped. (a

Natali [406]

Answer:

(a)

The probability that you stop at the fifth flip would be

$p^4 (1-p) + (1-p)^4 p$

(b)

The expected numbers of flips needed would be

$\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} n p(1-p)^{n-1} = 1/p$

Therefore, suppose that $p = 0.5$ , then the expected number of flips needed would be 1/0.5 = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Case 1

Imagine that you throw your coin and you get only heads, then you would stop when you get the first tail. So the probability that you stop at the fifth flip would be

$p^4 (1-p)$

Case 2

Imagine that you throw your coin and you get only tails, then you would stop when you get the first head. So the probability that you stop at the fifth flip would be

$(1-p)^4p$

Therefore the probability that you stop at the fifth flip would be

$p^4 (1-p) + (1-p)^4 p$

(b)

The expected numbers of flips needed would be

$\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} n p(1-p)^{n-1} = 1/p$

Therefore, suppose that $p = 0.5$ , then the expected number of flips needed would be 1/0.5 = 2.

Which of the following points is a solution to y ≤ −2x + 3?

Alika [10]

Answer:

d; below; y = −2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equality ≤ means left to right that y is equal or less than. We see that 2 is equal or less than 3.

We check the resulting equation also and see that if we +3 it = 1 and if we +2 it equals 0 so we know +2 in answer format can be less than also. But with questions we are measuring the units and +2 is less than +3.

Helga [31]

Answer:

ok so first they drove 55 for 3 hours so

55*3=165

and then they drove 45 for 2 hours

45*2=90

165+90=255

so in total they drove 255 miles

Hope This Helps!!!
