You will need to know that the sum of "two complementary angles" is 90
therefore
Let x = one angle
then
90-x = second angle
.
Now, we construct our equation based on the sentence:
"The sum of the measures of two complementary angles exceeds the difference of their measures by 86°."
x + 90-x = x-(90-x)+86
90 = x-90+x+86
90 = 2x-90+86
90 = 2x-4
94 = 2x
47 degrees = x (first angle)
.
Second angle:
90-x = 90-47 = 43 degrees (second angle) hope it helps

Solve the system of equations using elimination.<br><br> 4x - 7y = 5<br> 9x – 7y = –15
Anni [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to get one positive 7y so,

4x-7y=5

9x-7y=-15

multiply anyone of the equation by -1. I choose the first one so,

4x+7y=-5

9x-7y=-15

we can now cancel the y's so the equation will be left with

-4x=-5

9x=-15

add the equations

5x=-20

divide by 5 n u get

x=-4

now plug in the x value in any one of the

equations

I choose the first one so,

4(-4)-7y=5

-16-7y=5

add 16 to both sides

-7y=21

divide by -7

y=-3.

finally check.

An instructor who taught two sections of engineering probability last term, the first with 20 students and thesecond with 30, de
Oliga [24]

Answer:

0.207

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an hypergeometric distribution problem

An hypergeometric distribution has the same sense as the discrete probabilities of binomial distribution, but unlike binomial distribution, hypergeometric distribution does not allow replacement.

Binomial distribution expresses the probability of picking k objects from n with replacement, but hypergeometric distribution expresses picking k objects from n without replacement, with the finite total population, N, containing K objects.

It is expressed mathematically as

h(k: n, K, N) = (ᴷCₖ)(ᴺ⁻ᴷCₙ₋ₖ)/(ᴺCₙ)

where

k = number of students in the 2nd section required to be in the first 15 graded projects (number of successes) = 10

n = total number of first graded projects (number of trials) = 15

K = number of students in the 2nd section of the class = 30

N = total number of students = 50

h(10: 15, 30, 50) = (³⁰C₁₀)(⁵⁰⁻³⁰C₁₅₋₁₀)/(⁵⁰C₁₅)

h(10: 15, 30, 50) = (³⁰C₁₀)(²⁰C₅)/(⁵⁰C₁₅)

= (30,045,015)(15,504)/(2,250,829,575,120)

P(X = 10) = 0.207

Hope this Helps!!!
