Answer:
1) x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the Pythagorean thm for these questions. Where a and b are the legs (So order doesn't matter), and where c is the hypotenuse
1)
a² + b² = c²
9² + 12² = x²
81 + 144 = x²
x² = 225
You square root each side so you can get rid of the exponent on x.
x = 15
Answer:
Option B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two events are said to be independent of each other, if the probability of one event ocurrin in not way affects the probability of the other event occurring.
The interception of two independent events P(A ∩ B) = P(A) × P(B), where:
P(A) = 0.70
P(B) = 0.20
P(A ∩ B) = P(A) × P(B) = 0.70x0.20 = 0.14
The two events are independent if the probability of buying Bread AND cheese equals: 0.14, which is Option B.
Ok , with that information we can write the equations
x + y = 6
5x + 4y = 28
Where x = how many people ordered chicken
and y = how many people ordered egg salad
Through elimination , we can set one of the variables in both equations equal so we can eliminate it :
(4)x + (4)y = (4)6
5x + 4y = 28
4x + 4y = 24. equation 1
5x + 4y = 28. equation 2
Now we can subtract the second equation by the first equation and isolate one variable:
equation 2 - equation 1
5x - 4x + 4y - 4y = 28 - 24
x = 4
Now that we discovered our x value ( How many people ordered chicken salad ) , we can apply it to one of the equations and discover y ( how many people ordered egg salad)
x + y = 6
x= 4
4 + y = 6
We can shift 4 to the other side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation:
4 - 4 + y = 6 - 4
y = 2
x=4 and y=2
So the awnser is :
4 people ordered chicken salad and 2 people ordered egg salad!
I hope you understood my brief explanation!!
