<span>5x+3y=12
2x+y=5

Change the second equation to y=-2x+5. Now substitute this into the first equation:

5x+3(-2x+5)=12
5x-6x+15=12
-x+15=12
-x=-3
x=3

Now you can find y.
y=-2x+5
y=-2(3)+5
y=-1</span>

I will use the substitution method, but you can also use elimination and matrix.

1. Solve for y in 2x+y=5
2x+y=5
y=5-2x

2. Substitute y=5-2x into 5x+3y=12
5x+3y=12
5x+3(5-2x)=12
5-x=12

3. Solve for x in 15-x=12
15-x=12
-x=12-15
-x=-3
x=3

4. Substitute x=3 into y=5-2x
y=5-2x
y=5-2*3
y=-1

5. Therefore, 
x=3
y=-1

Have a nice day :D

I'm not sure how to simplify this expression with the exponents rules of multiplication
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
The rule of exponential multiplication is (a^x)*(a^y)=a^(x+y)
using this with your expression, we can do
(10^1)*(10^3)*(10^2)=10^(1+3+2)=10^6
Final answer:
10^6 or 1 million

A fair die is cast four times. Calculate
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

0.1319 or 13.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this using the binomial probability formula.

The fact that "obtaining at least two 6s" requires you to include cases where you would get three and four 6s as well.

Then, we can set the equation as follows:

P(X≥x) = ∑(k=x to n) C(n k) p^k q^(n-k)

n=4, x=2, k=2

when x=2  (4 2)(1/6)^2(5/6)^4-2 = 0.1157

when x=3  (4 3)(1/6)^3(5/6)^4-3 = 0.0154

when x=4 (4 4)(1/6)^4(5/6)^4-4 = 0.0008

Add them up, and you should get 0.1319 or 13.2% (rounded to the nearest tenth)

(NEED HELP ASAP)Determine whether the situation calls for a survey, an observational study, or an experiment. You want to find n
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer: The answer is "experiment."

Step-by-step explanation:

This procedure is being used in order to validate a hypothesis, particularly in a research study. In the situation above, you have to validate whether a new reading program can increase reading comprehension or not.

The experiment consists of independent, dependent, and controlled variables. The independent variables are the ones being changed by the researcher, while the dependent variables tell whether the changes in the independent variable is significant. The controlled variables are the ones that are constant.

The dependent variable above is reading comprehension, while the new reading program is the independent variable. Examples of controlled variables are the ages of the participants. The age directly affects the reading comprehension, thus it has to be considered.
