X+y = 24x-y = 15 Thus, x=15+y Substitute for x in first equation becomes 15 +y + y = 24. 2y=9; therefore y=4.5, and since x = 24-y, x= 19.5 Check answer: 4.5 + 19.5 = 24; 19.5-4.5 = 15

A specific automotive part that a service station stocks in its inventory has an 8% chance of being defective. Suppose many cars
mylen [45]

Answer:

6.23% probability that the fourth part retrieved from stock is the first defective

Step-by-step explanation:

For each part, we have that:

8% probability of being defective.

100-8 = 92% probability of not being defective.

The parts are independent of each other.

What is the probability that the fourth part retrieved from stock is the first defective?

The first three work correctly, each one with a 92% probability.

The fourth is defective, with an 8% probability.

P = 0.92*0.92*0.92*0.08 = 0.0623

6.23% probability that the fourth part retrieved from stock is the first defective

Don't know what kind of algebra this is, can't remember.<br><br> let g(x) = x + 7. find g(-4)
just olya [345]

Answer:

g(x) = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply substitute -4 in for x in the equation (as you can see -4 takes the place of x in g(-4), so just do the same thing for all of the other x's in the equations). Therefore, g(-4) = (-4) + 7. Well, since -4 is negative and 7 is positive, you can think of it as 7 - 4, which gets you 3. Voila! 3 is your answer :)
