Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is expressed as

x + y = 8 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

x² + y² = 34 - - - - - - - - - - - -2

From equation 1, we would make x to stand alone by subtracting y from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation. It becomes

x + y - y = 8 - y

x = 8 - y

Substituting x = 8 - y into equation 2, it becomes

(8 - y)² + y² = 34

(8 - y)(8 - y) + y² = 34

64 - 8y - 8y + y² + y² = 34

2y² - 16y + 64 - 34 = 0

2y²- 16y + 30 = 0

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

y² - 8y + 15 = 0

y² - 5y - 3y + 15 = 0

y(y - 5) - 3(y - 5) = 0

y - 5 = 0 or y - 3 = 0

y = 5 or y = 3

Recall, x = 8 - y

x = 8 - 5. or x = 8 - 3

x = 3 or x = 5

Each of 11 refrigerators of a certain type has been returned to a distributor because of an audible, high-pitched, oscillating n
Pie

Answer:

The correct answer is 1,51%

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the probability  equally likely of the first 6 examined that have a defective compressor, we use the following formula

P=# of possibilities that meet the condition / #of equally likely possibilities.

As there are multiple events ,  and all must be achieve, we multiply the probabilities.

P1=7 / 11

P2=6 / 10

P3=5 / 9

P4=4 / 8

P5=3 / 7

P6=2 / 6

P(x)=7 / 11*6 / 10*5 / 9*4 / 8*3 / 7*2 / 6=0,01515151515

P(x)=1,51%

Which graph best represents the equation x+2y=4
RUDIKE [14]
You didn’t show a picture of the graph, although the equation would be y=-1/2x+2
so every two x spaces forward you should go down one y space and the y should start at 2 when x = 0
