Answer:

P(A&B) = 0.4

Explanation:

Because it is a random process and there are no special constraints the probability for everybody is the same, the probability of choosing a particular site is 1/7, the person originally seated in chair number seven has 5/7 chance of not seating in chair number six and seven, the same goes for the person originally seated in chair number six; Because we want the probability of the two events happening, we want the probability of the intersection of the two events, and because the selection of a chair change the probability for the others (Dependents events) the probability P(A&B) = P(A) * P(B/A) where P(A) is 5/7 and the probability of choosing the right chair after the event A is 4/7, therefore, P(A&B) = 4/7*5/7 = 0.4.

If the events were independent the probability would be 0.51.

Solve the system of equations:
iVinArrow [24]

(-1,-2) \:  \:  \:  \:  \: and \:  \:  \:  \:  \: (3,6) \\ Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x \\ y =  {x}^{2}  - 3 \\  \\ 2x =  {x}^{2}  - 3 \\  {x}^{2}  - 2x - 3 = 0 \\ (x + 1)(x - 3) = 0 \\ x + 1 = 0 \:  \:  \:  \:  \: or \:  \:  \:  \:  \: x - 3 = 0 \\ x =  - 1 \:  \:  \:  \:  \: or \:  \:  \:  \:  \: x = 3

When x = -1

Substitute x = -1 into y = 2x

y = 2(-1)

y = -2

( -1, -2)

When x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into y = 2x

y = 2(3)

y = 6

( 3, 6)

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

(9x-4)+(5x+16)=180

14x+12=180

     -12    -12

14x=168

then devide both sides by 14

x=12
