Mathematics
1 answer:
Aleonysh [2.5K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

x - y = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

from the equation

3y - x = 3

and x is four times the value of y

i.e  x = 4y

put x  = 4y into the first equation

we have;

3y  - 4Y = 3

-Y = 3

Divide both sides by -1

we have

y = -3

so put y = -3 in the 2nd equation

i.e x = 4y

x = 4 × -3

x = -12

therefore x = -12 and y = -3

so tho find x - y

we have

-12 - (-3)

= -9

therefore x - y = -9

-10x - 135 = 117 + 2x<br> A. 25<br> B. -18<br> C. -21<br> D. 22 <br> Helps pls
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 10x to both sides:

-10x - 135 = 117 + 2x

-10x - 135 + 10x = 117 + 2x + 10x

-135 = 117 + 12x

Subtract 117 from both sides:

-135 - 117 = 117 + 12x - 117

-252 = 12x

Divide both sides by 12:

\frac{-252}{12} = \frac{12x}{12}

-21 = x

So the answer is C.

Hope this helps!

morpeh [17]

Answer:

1) a) 0.0945

b) 0.1062

2) a) 0.0138

b) 0.00081

3) a) 0.00094

b) 0.00083

4) 301.68 cents

5) 0.0056

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 3 Red, 7 Green, and 10 Blue marbles.

Total number of marbles N = 20

Probability (Red) = 3/20

Probability (Green) = 7/20

Probability (Blue) = 10/20

1) the probability of picking 5 marbles and getting at least one red marble

A) with replacement

P(at least 1 red of 5)= (3/20 * 17/20 * 17/20 * 17/20 * 17/20) + (3/20 * 3/20 * 17/20 * 17/20 * 17/20) + (3/20 * 3/20 * 3/20 * 17/20 * 17/20)

P(at least 1 red of 5) = 0.0783 +0.0138 + 0.0024 = 0.0945

B) without replacement

P(at least 1 red of 5) = ( 3/20 * 17/19* 16/18 * 15/17 * 14/16) + (3/20 * 2/19 * 17/18 * 16/17 * 15/16) + (3/20 * 2/19 * 1/18 * 17/17 * 16/16)

P(at least 1 red of 5) = 0.0921 + 0.01316 + 0.0009 = 0.1062

2) the probability of picking 6 marbles having 2 of each color

A) with replacement

P( 6, 2 of each) = 3/20 * 3/20 * 7/20 * 7/20 * 10/20 * 10/20

P( 6, 2 of each) = 0.0138

B) without replacement

P( 6, 2 of each) = 3/20 * 2/19 * 7/18 * 6/17 * 10/16 * 9/15

P( 6, 2 of each) = 0.00081

3) Pick 8 marbles: 4 green and 4 blue

A) with replacement

P(8, 4G and 4 B) = 7/20*7/20*7/20*7/20*10/20*10/20*10/20

P(8, 4G and 4 B) = 0.00094

B) without replacement

P(8, 4G and 4 B) = 7/20*6/19*5/18*4/17*10/16*9/15*8/14*7/13 = 0.00083

4) getting at least 6 marbles of the same color

Only Green and Blue marbles are more than 6

P(at least 6 marbles of the same color) = (7/20*6/19*5/18*4/17*3/16*2/15) + (10/20*9/19*8/18*7/17*6/16*5/15)

= 0.00018 + 0.00542

P(at least 6 marbles of the same color) = 0.0056

Cost of 6 .marbles= 6* 50 cents

C = 300 cents

Therefore, You will have to pay

(1 + 0.0056) 300 cent = 301.68 cents to be sure of getting at least 6 marbles of the same color

5) getting at least 6 marbles of the same color

Only Green and Blue marbles are more than 6

P(at least 6 marbles of the same color) = (7/20*6/19*5/18*4/17*3/16*2/15) + (10/20*9/19*8/18*7/17*6/16*5/15)

= 0.00018 + 0.00542

P(at least 6 marbles of the same color) = 0.0056
