Answer:

x=-4

y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to eliminate the variable x. In order to do this, we are going to make the coefficients the same by multiplying the second equation by 2

A/ab-bsquare + b/ab-asquare?

lord [1]

Answer:

$\dfrac{(a+b)}{ab}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

$\dfrac{a}{ab-b^2}+\dfrac{b}{ab-a^2}$

It can be solved as follows :

$\dfrac{a}{ab-b^2}+\dfrac{b}{ab-a^2}=\dfrac{a}{b(a-b)}+\dfrac{b}{a(b-a)}\\\\=\dfrac{a}{b(a-b)}+\dfrac{b}{-a(-b+a)}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{a-b}(\dfrac{a}{b}-\dfrac{b}{a})\\\\=\dfrac{a^2-b^2}{ab(a-b)}\\\\=\dfrac{(a-b)(a+b)}{ab(a-b)}\\\\=\dfrac{(a+b)}{ab}$

So, the solution of the given expression is equal to $\dfrac{(a+b)}{ab}$ .

Write a ratio and a percent for the shaded area.

nika2105 [10]

I’m pretty sure it’s 36/100 - 36% since there are 100 boxes and 36 of them are shaded

Each side of a square is increasing at a rate of 6 cm/s. At what rate is the area of the square increasing when the area of the

siniylev [52]

Solution: 48cm/s^2

Working:

A = s^2

Derivate s^2 (as it is area formula) which gives

dA/dt = 2s dL/dt

dL/dt = 6cm/s

Hence,

2(6) = 12

Side: 4cm

Hence,

dA/dt = (4)(12) = 48cm/s^2

Blood type AB is the rarest blood type, occurring in only 4% of the population in the United States. In Australia, only 1.5% of

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

a. X is a binomial random variable with n = 50 and p = 0.04

b. Y is a binomial random variable with n = 40 and p = 0.015

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

X: the number of US residents (out of 50) with blood type AB.

Blood type AB is the rarest blood type, occurring in only 4% of the population in the United States

This means that $p = 0.04, n = 50$

Y: the number of Australians (out of 40) with blood type AB.

In Australia, only 1.5% of the population has blood type AB.

This means that $p = 0.015, n = 40$

Z: the total number of individuals (out of 90) with blood type AB.

Here

$n = 90, p = 0.04*\frac{50}{90} + 0.015*\frac{40}{90} = 0.0289$

Which of the following is true about the random variables X, Y, and Z?

Options a and b are true, while c is false.

While waiting for a video game to download, you notice that 30%, of 32000 kilobytes have been downloaded so far.

kolbaska11 [484]

30%=0.3
0.3×32000=9600
So, 30% of 32,000KB is 9,600KB
