Answer: the first number is 6

The second number is - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the first number.

Let y represent the second number.

Seven times the first number plus 6 times the second number equals 36. This means that

7x + 6y = 36- - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Three times the first number minus ten times the second number is 28. This means that

3x - 10y = 28 - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 7, it becomes

21x + 18y = 108

21x - 70y = 196

Subtracting, it becomes

88y = - 88

y = - 88/88

y = - 1

Substituting y = - 1 into equation 1, it becomes

7x + 6 × - 1 = 36

7x - 6 = 36

7x = 36 + 6 = 42

x = 42/7

x = 6

Hat is he probability of pick 1 green marble from a bag with 7 green and 8 blue marbles
disa [49]

Answer:

7/15

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>No. of green marbles in the bag= 7</em>

<em>No. of blue marbles in the bag= 8</em>

<em>Total no. of marbles in the bag= 7+8=15</em>

As we know that,

Probability( of a random event A)= \frac{Favourable\ no.\ of\ elementary\ events}{Total\ no.\ of\ elementary\ events}

Hence in this case,

Favourable np. of elementary events (green marbles)=7

Total no. of elementary events (Total no. of marbles in the bag)= 15

Hence, Probability of picking a green marble from the bag=\frac{7}{15}

Please help: linear algebra problem. (Linear combinations)
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&7\\5&-8\\3&-9\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}c\\d\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-16\\3\\-15\end{array}\right]

This tells us that:

A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&7\\5&-8\\3&-9\end{array}\right]

b=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-16\\3\\-15\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are saying we have scalars, c and d, such that:

c\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5\\5\\ 3\end{array}\right]+d\left[\begin{array}{ccc}7\\-8\\-9\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-16\\3\\-15\end{array}\right].

So we want to find a way to express this as:

Ax=b where x is the scalar vector, \left[\begin{array}{ccc}c\\d\end{array}\right].

So we can write this as:

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&7\\5&-8\\3&-9\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}c\\d\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-16\\3\\-15\end{array}\right]
