2x + 2y = 6 . . . . . (1)
x + 3y = -1 . . . . . (2)

(1) x 3 => 6x + 6y = 18 . . . . . (3)
(2) x 2 => 2x + 6y = -2 . . . . . (4)

(3) - (4) => 4x = 20
x = 20/4 = 5

Answer:

P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{3}{8}+\frac{1}{8}

P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}

P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{3}{7}+\frac{1}{14}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given probabilities are:

P(red)=\frac{2}{7}

P(blue)=\frac{3}{14}

Their sum is P(red)+P(blue)=\frac{2}{7}+\frac{3}{14}

The probabilities that will complete the model should add up to \frac{1}{2} so that the sum of all probabilities is 1.

P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{2}{7}+\frac{2}{7}\ne\frac{1}{2}

P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{3}{8}+\frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{2}

P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{2}

P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{5}{21}+\frac{11}{21}\ne\frac{1}{2}

P(green)+P(yellow)=\frac{3}{7}+\frac{1}{14}=\frac{1}{2}

Solve the following equation x(x + 19) = -34
xxMikexx [17]
Hi there,

x(x + 19) = -34

I'm going to solve your equation step-by-step.<span><span>x<span>(<span>x + 19</span>) </span></span>= <span>−34

</span></span>Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.<span><span><span>x2 </span>+ <span>19x </span></span>= <span>−34

</span></span>Step 2: Subtract -34 from both sides.<span><span><span><span>x2 </span>+ <span>19x </span></span>− <span>(<span>−34</span>) </span></span>= <span><span>−34 </span>− <span>(<span>−34</span>)

</span></span></span><span><span><span><span>x2 </span>+ <span>19x </span></span>+ 34 </span>= 0

</span>Step 3: Factor left side of equation.<span><span><span>(<span>x + 2</span>) </span><span>(<span>x + 17</span>) </span></span>= 0

</span>Step 4: Set factors equal to 0.<span><span><span>x + 2 </span>= <span><span><span>0<span> or </span></span>x </span>+ 17 </span></span>= 0

</span><span><span>x = <span>−<span><span>2<span> or </span></span>x </span></span></span>= <span>−17

</span></span>Answer:<span><span>x = <span>−<span><span>2<span> or </span></span>x </span></span></span>= <span>−<span>17

Hope this helps! :)</span></span></span>

There are 7 animals a farmer's field.
sergey [27]

Answer:

2 cows and 5 chickens.

Step-by-step explanation:

NOTE: This will be solved using simultaneous equations.

Let x = cows and y = chickens

1. form two equations

4x + 2y = 18 ... (1)

x + y = 7 .... (2)

2. make y (or x) the subject of one equation

x + y = 7

y = 7 - x ... (3)

3. Substitute (3) into (1)

4x + 2( 7 - x) = 18

4. solve for x

4x + 14 - 2x = 18

2x = 4

x = 2

5. Now substitute x value into equation (2)

x + y = 7

2 + y = 7

y = 5

∴ cows (x) = 2

chickens (y) = 5
