<u>ANSWER: </u>

The value of the three numbers are -2, 5 and -6 respectively.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Let us say the unknown numbers 1, 2 and 3 are x, y and z respectively.

It is given to us that the last number is three times the first number.

Therefore, we can write it as;

z = 3x  --- eq1

It is also given that the last number is 11 smaller than the second number.

Which can be written as;

z  = y-11  ---- eq2

we are also given that the sum of all three numbers is -3.

So, we can form the equation as follows;

x + y + z = -3 ----- eq3

By equating equation 1 and equation 2 we get

3x = y – 11

y = 3x + 11 --- equation 4

By substituting eqn 1, 4 into equation 3 we get,

x + 3x + 11 + 3x = -3

7x + 11 = -3

7x = -14

x = -2

By substituting the value of “x” in eqn 1 we get z = -6

By substituting the value of “x” in eqn 4 we get y = -6 +11 = 5

Hence the three numbers are -2, 5 and -6

The probability that a plane departs on time at a certain airport is .87 The probability that a plane arrives on time given it d
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

0.9355

Step-by-step explanation:

What we will use here is conditional probability formula.

let A be the event that the plane departs on time

and B be the event that it arrives on time

P(A) = 0.87

P(B|A) = 0.93

P(B) = ?

P(A n B) = ?

Mathematically;

P(B|A) = P(B nA)/P(A)

0.93 = 0.87/P(A)

P(A) = 0.87/0.93

P(A) = 0.935483870967742

which is 0.9355 to four decimal places

Consider the equation x+4=−2x+19. Let f(x)=x+4and g(x)=−2x+19. The graph of each function is shown. Coordinate plane with the gr
Svetach [21]

The point of intersection of both graphs will have the coordinate (5, 9).

<h3>What is the Point of Intersection of the Graph?</h3>

We are given the functions;

f(x) = x + 4

g(x) = -2x + 19

Now, the point of intersection of both graphs is when both functions are equal which is at f(x) = g(x). Thus;

x + 4 = -2x + 19

x + 2x = 19 - 4

3x = 15

x = 15/3

x = 5

Thus;

f(x) = 5 + 4 = 9

g(x) = -2(5) + 19 = 9

Thus, the point of intersection of both graphs will have the coordinate (5, 9)

I need help on how to do combinations
Veronika [31]
Ok sure! Let's start with the marbles first. We have one red one blue and one green. There is a red and a blue cube. All we do is list the possible combinations of one marble and one cube. The answer would be : 1 blue marble, 1 blue cube. 1 red marble, 1 blue cube. 1 green marble, 1 blue cube. Then again but with the red cube. So in all, there are 6 possible combinations. Hope this helps. ☺️
