Answer:

$x = - 2 \\ y = - 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

$- 2x + 2y = - 4 \: \: \: \: \: \\ i.e. \: \: \: - x + y = - 2 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: ...(1)\\ \\ 3x + 3y = - 18 \\ i.e. \: \: \: \: \: \: x + y = - 6\: \: \: \: \: \: \: ...(2)$

From (1) we get

$x = 2 + y$

Now put x = 2 + y in equation (2)

$2 + y + y = - 6 \\ 2 + 2y = - 6 \\ 2y = - 6 - 2 \\ 2y = - 8 \\ \\ y = - \frac{8}{2} \\ \\ y = - 4$

now put y = -4 in equation (1) we get

$- x + ( - 4) = - 2 \\ - x - 4 = - 2 \\ x + 4 = 2 \\ x = 2 - 4 \\ x = - 2$

A share of stock in the bree medical supply company is quoted at 35 1/4,suppose you hold 20 shares of that stock which you bough

kodGreya [7K]

Hi there, we know the total number of stocks bough is 20, the rate was 31 1/2=63/2, 20*63/2=10*63=630 dollars, the rate they were sold is 35 1/4=141/4 dollars, 5*141=705 dollars, the amount of profit is 20 stocks. So, 705-630=75 dollars. So, the answer is C. You made a profit of $75.00

Kevin installed a certain brand of automatic garage door opener that utilizes a transmitter control with four independent switc

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Kevin installed a certain brand of automatic garage door opener that utilizes a transmitter control with four independent switches, each one set on or off. The receiver (wired to the door) must be set with the same pattern as the transmitter. If six neighbors with the same type of opener set their switches independently.The probability of at least one pair of neighbors using the same settings is 0.65633

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

In the question it is given that

Automatic garage door opener utilizes a transmitter control with four independent switches

So .the number of Combinations possible with the Transmitters =

2*2*2*2= 16

Step 2

Probability of at least one pair of neighbors using the same settings = 1- Probability of All Neighbors using different settings.

= 1- 16*15*14*13*12*11/(16^6)

Step 3

Probability of at least one pair of neighbors using the same settings=

= 1- 0.343666

Step 4

So the probability of at least one pair of neighbors using the same settings

is 0.65633
