1. Lisa is working with the system of equations x+2y=7 and 2x−5y=5. She multiplies the first equation by 2 and then subtracts th

e second equation to find 9y=9, telling her that y=1. Lisa then finds that x=5. Thinking about this procedure, Lisa wonders: There are lots of ways I could go about solving this problem. I could add 5 times the first equation and twice the second or I could multiply the first equation by -2 and add the second. I seem to find that there is only one solution to the two equations but I wonder if I will get the same solution if I use a different method? A. What is the answer to Lisa's question? Explain. B. Does the answer to (a) change if we have a system of two equations in two unknowns with no solutions? What if there are infinitely many solutions? 2. Graph (Links to an external site.) the following linear system. What is the solution? y = 2x + 4 y = 3x + 2

Answer:

A. Yes

B. No

C. No

D. The graph of the equations is attached

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Yes, she will get the same solution

Given the solution is based on the two solutions, the solution will be the same for all algebraic methods used

B. No, the answer in A does not change

A system of two equations in two unknowns with no solution is an inconsistent system of equations and there should be no solutions for all correct algebraic methods used

C. No, the answer in A does not change

If there are infinitely many solutions, there will be infinitely many solutions for all correct algebraic methods used

D. The graph of the equations;

y = 2·x + 4...(1) and y = 3·x + 2.....(2) is attached

Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2), we have;

3·x + 2 - (2·x + 4) = y - y = 0

x - 2 = 0

∴ x = 2

The graphs of the two equations also intersect at x = 2.

A Fair coin is tossed and a marble is chosen from the bag whose contents are shown below. what is the probability of the coin La
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

P(Coin landing heads and blue marble is randomly selected) = 3/20.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, two events simultaneously take place. First, all the probabilities have to be identified. It is mentioned that the coin is a fair coin, therefore the probabilities of all the outcomes associated with the coin tossing will be equal. Therefore:

P(Coin landing heads) = 1/2.

P(Coin landing tails) = 1/2.

There are a total of 3 blue + 4 green + 3 red = 10 marbles in the bag. Therefore:

P(Selected marble is blue) = 3/10.

P(Selected marble is green) = 4/10.

P(Selected marble is red) = 3/10.

Assuming that both the events are independent, the probabilities of both the events can safely be multiplied. Therefore:

P(Coin landing heads and blue marble is randomly selected) = 1/2 * 3*10 = 3/20.

Therefore, the answer is 3/20!!!

There are 16 marbles in a bag 12 of them are blue and 4 are yellow. what is the probability of picking a blue marble then a yell
Art [367]

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

the prob that you will pick a blue marble would be 12/16, easy.

then the prob of picking a yellow marble after that would be 4/15 since one marble is already missing. multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction. so 12 x 4 and 16 x 15 to get 48/240. then divide each by 48 to get 1/5.

James bought a new sweatshirt from Foot Locker for $39.98 with tax of 7% that was added at the register. James gave the cashier
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer: 2.2214

Step-by-step explanation:

0.07 x 39.98 = 2.7986 (is tax)

2.7986 + 39.98 = 42.7786

45.00 - 42.7786 = 2.2214
