The probability of drawing a white marble =
∴ the probability of drawing a white marble = ³/₁₄
2x - 3y = -24
x+ 6y = 18
you solve the first one by the x:
2x = -24 + 3y
x = (-24+3y)/2
then you substitute what you found in the other equation and you solve by y
(-24+3y)/2 + 6y = 18 multiply everything by 2
-24 + 3y + 12y = 36
3y + 12y = 36 + 24
15y = 60
y = 60/15
y = 4
Good job! You found your y! :D
Now let's substitute the y in the first equation with 4:
2x - 3(4) = -24
2x - 12 = -24
2x = -24 + 12
2x = -12
x = -12/2
x= -6
Done!! ;) <span />
For the first system, we have
1 - 3x + 3y = -8
or
-3x + 3y = -9
The second equation, however, tells us
-3x + 3y = 13
but -9 ≠ 13, so this system has no solution.
For the second system, notice that multiplying both sides of
4x - 8y = 6
by 1/2 gives
2x - 4y = 3
which is identical to the other equation in the system. Then all point (x, y) that lie on this line are solutions to the system, meaning there are infinitely many solutions.
