in this one, is about the same as the previous one, if you set them both at y = mx+b, slope-intercept form, you'll notice the slopes are the same, whilst the y-intercepts differ.

so both lines are parallel, and never meet.

Solve the following system:

{3 x + 7 y = 31 | (equation 1)

-3 x - 2 y = -1 | (equation 2)

Add equation 1 to equation 2:

{3 x + 7 y = 31 | (equation 1)

0 x+5 y = 30 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 2 by 5:

{3 x + 7 y = 31 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6 | (equation 2)

Subtract 7 × (equation 2) from equation 1:

{3 x+0 y = -11 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 3:

{x+0 y = (-11)/3 | (equation 1)

0 x+y = 6 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer:  x = -11/3 , y = 6

a bag contains 5 grape tootsie pops and 8 chocolate tootsie pops. if juan pulls a chocolate tootsie pop out of the bag and eats
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

= 5 / 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is an outcome of chance. It is a measure of outcomes of events.

To solve the probability of picking a Tootsie Pop, we must comfortably know the contents of the bag.

Number of GRAPE Tootsie pops = 5

Number of CHOCOLATE Tootsie pops= 8

Total number of Tootsie pops = The sum of both Tootsie pops

Total number = 5 + 8

= 13.

Let's note that tge question said , Juan pulls a chocolate Tootsie Pop and eats. The implication is it has reduced the total number of Tootsie Pops left in the bag.

Therefore:

The probability that the next pop he pulls out will be grape will be

Probability (Grape) = 5 / (13 -1)

= 5 / 12

The probability that the next Pop he pulls out will be a grape = 5/12
