Answer:

x = 6, y =-2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2y = 26

3x+2y = 14

Subtract the two equations to eliminate y

5x+2y = 26

-3x-2y = -14

---------------------

2x = 12

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 12/2

x = 6

Now find y

3x+2y = 14

3*6+2y = 14

18+2y = 14

Subtract 18 from each side

18+2y-18 =14-18

2y = -4

Divide by 2

2y/2 = -4/2

y = -2

Answer:

x=6

y=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2y=26

3x+2y=14

subtract

2x=12

x=12/2=6

3(6)+2y=14

2y=14-18=-4

y=-4/2=-2

slavikrds [6]

Answer: Our required probability is 0.304.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

N = 21

Number of improperly drilled holes k = 4

Number of properly drilled holes = N-k= 21-4=17

Let X be the number of improperly drilled holes in a sample of 5.

We will use "Binomial distribution":

$P(X=5)=\dfrac{^4C_0\times ^{17}C_5}{^{21}C_5}=0.304$

So, our required probability is 0.304.

How many solutions does the system have? You can use the interactive graph below to find the answer. 4x-2y=8 2x+y=2 4x−2y=8 2x+y

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following system

$\left[\begin{matrix} 4 & -2 \\ 2 & 1 \end{matrix}\right]x =\left[\begin{matrix} 8 \\ 2 \end{matrix}\right]$

The number of solutions depend on the determinant of the matrix of the system. If the determinant is different from 0, then it has one unique solution, if it 0 then it has infinite solutions.

Note that the determinant of a matrix

$\left[\begin{matrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{matrix}\right]$ is ad-bc. So in our case we have 4*1-(-2)*2 = 8 which is not 0. Then the system has an unique solution.

Find the cost of carpeting a room 3.6m high at Rs 120 per square meter if it contains 240 mcube of air

NeX [460]

Answer:

Rs 8000

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = Base area × Height

If we want to find the cost of carpeting a room, we need to find how much space there is to carpet, which would be the base area of the room.

240m³ = Base area × 3.6m

Base area = 240m³ ÷ 3.6m

Base area = 66 $\frac{2}{3}$ m²

1m² --- Rs 120

66 $\frac{2}{3}$ m² --- 66 $\frac{2}{3}$ × Rs 120 = Rs 8000

Which are NOT POLYNOMIALS ??

Oliga [24]

A. Simplifies into x - 4. Yes

B. Yes.

C. No, because the exponent is a fraction.

D. No, because √x has an exponent of 1/2.

E. Yes

F. Yes.

So C. and D are not polynomials :)))
