Answer:

x ≤ (1+2a) / (a-1)  where a > 1

Step-by-step explanation:

(x–2)a ≤ x+1

x(a) -2(a) ≤ x + 1

ax -2a ≤ x + 1   (subtract x from both sides)

ax -2a - x  ≤  1 (add 2a to both sides)

ax - x  ≤  1 + 2a  (factor out x from left side)

x (a - 1) ≤ 1 + 2a

x ≤ (1+2a) / (a-1)  where a > 1

I do not understand any of the questions its asking :c
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of students is 350 + 50 + 225 + 375 = 1000.

There are 225 students in band only, as well as 50 students in both band and choir.  So there are 275 students in band out of the total of 1000, or 27.5%.

There are 350 students in choir only, as well as 50 students in both choir and band.  So there are 400 students in choir, 50 of whom are also in band.  So the probability is 50/400, or 12.5%.

The probabilities are not the same.

Since the probabilities are not the same, the probability of being in band is affected by whether or not the student is in choir.  So the events are not independent.

A store is having a sale on jelly beans and almonds. For 6 pounds of jelly beans and 2 pounds of almonds, the total cost is $12
CaHeK987 [17]

Solution:

Let each pond of  jelly beans cost $x.

and each pond of almonds cost $y.

Then we can write

6x+2y=12.......(i)

3x+5y=15.....(ii)

Now solve these two equations together using substitution we get

3x=15-5y

30-10y+2y=12\\
\\
-8y=12-30\\
\\
-8y=-18\\
\\
y=2.25\\
\\
3x=15-5y=15-5*2.25=3.75\\
\\
x=1.25

Hence each pond of jelly bean cost 1.25$

Each pond of almond costs 2.25$
