2x-8y=-24 6x+4y=68 Using elimination method

1 answer:

4 0

6(2x-8y=-24)
-2 (6x+4y=68)
12x-48y=-144
-12x-8y=-136
-56y=-280

-280÷-56=5
y=5

2x-8 (5)=-24
2x-40=-24
+40. +40
2x=16
16÷2=8
×=8

y=5
x=8
hope this helps, if needed a picture for better understanding,please comment.

The measure of an angle is fifty-nine times the measure of a supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

vaieri [72.5K]

So
supplementary angles are adding up to 180
lets say they are x and y
x+y=180

x is 59 times y
x=59y
subsitute

59y+y=180
add
60y=180
divide 60
y=3
subsitute
x=59y
x=59(3)
x=177

angles are
3 and 177 degrees

g What is the probability of being dealt exactly three of a kind (like three kings or three 7’s, etc.) in a five card hand from

Elena L [17]

Answer: 0.02257

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total cards in a deck = 52

Number of ways to select any 5 cards : $^{52}C_5$

Since , there are total 13 kinds of card (includes Numbers from 2 to 9 and Ace , king, queen and jack).

Of each kind , there are 4 cards.

Number of ways to select three cards in a five card hand of a single kind : $^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2$

Number of ways to select three cards in a five card hand of a exactly three of a kind : $13\times^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2$

Now , the required probability = $\dfrac{13\times^{4}C_3\times^{48}C_2}{^{52}C_5}$

$=\dfrac{13\times4\times\dfrac{48!}{2!46!}}{\dfrac{52!}{5!47!}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{58656}{2598960}$

$=0.022569027611\approx0.02257$

∴ The probability of being dealt exactly three of a kind (like three kings or three 7’s, etc.) in a five card hand from a deck of 52 cards= 0.02257

Write the equation of the following graph in intercept form.

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

A) $f(x)=0.2(x+2)(x-5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph has x-intercepts at $x=5$ and $x=-2$ , so our factors for the polynomial will be $x+2$ and $x-5$ . This means we can rule out options B and D.
