Answer:

x = 0 and y =- \frac{1}{8}

The solution to the system of   the equation is (0, - \frac{1}{8} )

Step-by-step explanation:

9x - 8y = 1  ----------------------------------(1)

8y = x-1----------------------------------------(2)

From equation (2)  

8y = x -1

we will make x the subject of the formula, we will do this by adding 1 to both-side of the equation

8y + 1 = x -1 + 1

8y  + 1 = x

x = 8y + 1 ----------------------------------------(3)

Substitute equation (3) in equation (1)

9x - 8y = 1  

9(8y + 1)  -  8y  =  1

Open the bracket by multiplying 9 with all the values in the bracket

72y + 9 - 8y = 1

Rearrange the equation

72y - 8y + 9 = 1

64y + 9 = 1

subtract 9 from both-side of the equation

64y + 9 -9 = 1 - 9

64y = -8

Divide both-side of the equation by 64

64y/64 = -8/64

y= -\frac{1}{8}

Substitute y=- \frac{1}{8}  in equation (3)

x = 8y + 1

x = 8(- \frac{1}{8} )  + 1

x = -1 + 1

x = 0

Therefore x = 0 and y = -\frac{1}{8}

The solution to the system of   the equation is (0, - \frac{1}{8} )

A number cube with faces labeled from 1 to 6 will be rolled once.
tresset_1 [31]

Question:

A number cube with faces labeled from 1 to 6 will be rolled once.  The number rolled will be recorded as the outcome.

Give the sample space describing all possible outcomes.  Then give all of the outcomes for the event of rolling a number greater than 2.

If there is more than one element in the set, separate them with commas.

Answer:

S = \{1,2,3,4,5,6\}

Greater2 = \{3,4,5,6\}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A roll of a 6 sided number cube

Solving (a): The sample space

This implies that we list out all number on the number cube.

So:

S = \{1,2,3,4,5,6\}

Solving (b): Outcomes greater than 2

This implies that we list out all number on the number cube greater than 2 i.e. 3 to 6.

So:

Greater2 = \{3,4,5,6\}
