Answer:

The value of 'x' is 1 and 'y' is 2. So, the point is (1, 2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The given pair of linear equations are:

3x+y=5\\2x-2y=-2

In order to solve by elimination method, we have to eliminate any one variable using mathematical operations. Let us eliminate 'y'.

Multiplying the first equation by 2 and adding the result to the second equation. This gives,

(3x+y)\times 2=5\times 2\\6x+2y=10\\2x-2y=-2\\+\\----------\\8x+0=8\\8x=8\\x=\frac{8}{8}=1

Now, the value of 'y' can be calculated by plugging in 1 for 'x' in the first equation. This gives,

3(1)+y=5\\3+y=5\\y=5-3\\y=2

Therefore, the value of 'x' is 1 and 'y' is 2.

The solution is (1, 2).

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete. But I would show you how to solve the problem.

Two events A and B are said to be independent if the occurrence of event A does not affect the occurrence of event B and vice versa. P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B).

Two events A and B are said to be mutually exclusive if event A and event B cannot occur at the same time. P(A and B) = 0.

Two events A and B are said to be complementary when event A occurs if and only if event B does not occur and vice versa.

Describe the number and type of roots for the polynomial. (how many real and complex?)
DENIUS [597]
This is a cubic equation  so it will have a total of three roots.
there is only one change of sign  so the equation will have one positive real  root.
The other 2 roots  will be negative  and might be real or complex

Parking lot a is 1/4 Mile Long and 3/16 miles wide parking lot B is 3/8 mile long and 1/8 mile wide what is the difference betwe
djyliett [7]

Answer: There is no difference as the difference equals 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parking lot a is 1/4 Mile Long and 3/16 miles wide

Area = length × width

= 1/4 × 3/16

= 3/64

Parking lot B is 3/8 mile long and 1/8 mile wide

Area = length × width

= 3/8 × 1/8

= 3/64

Difference between the areas of parking lot A and B will be:

3/64 - 3/64

= 0

There is no difference.
