Answer: x=-5/2 ; y=11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to solve the system of equations:

5x-y =-7(a)

3x-y=-2(b)

Solving for "y" in (a)

5x+7=y

Replacing "y" in (b)

3x-(5x+7) =-2

3x-5x-7=-2

-7+2=-3x+5x

-5=2x

x= -5/2=-2.5 (decimal form)

Replacing "x" in (a)

5(-2.5) -y=-7

-12.5-y=-7

-12.5+7=y

-5.5=y

y=-5.5= -11/2

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

A six-sided die is rolled 25 times. The number 3 appears eight times. What is the experimental probability of getting a 3?
alisha [4.7K]
<h3>Answer in fraction form = 8/25</h3><h3>Answer in decimal form = 0.32</h3><h3>Answer in percent form = 32%</h3>

We have 8 instances of "3" showing up out of 25 total rolls, which is where the fraction 8/25 comes from. Use your calculator to find that 8/25 = 0.32. Or you could multiply top and bottom of 8/25 by 4 to get 32/100 = 0.32 = 32%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:2x + 9x - 9 = 16x + 16 - 5

11x - 16x = 11 + 9

5x = 20

x = 20/5

x = 4
