If you have 20/10, that equals 2. Then if you move the decimal place over 1 place then you have 2. If you divide 2 again by 10, then move the decimal place over in another place, it is equaling 0.2.

Say you have 30/10, which equals 3. Then move the decimal place over 1 place to get 3. Divide 3 again by 10, and move the decimal place over in another place. It is 0.3.

Solve the system of equations for x and y.<br> y = x + 5<br> y = 2x + 2

DIA [1.3K]

Answer (x,y) (3, -2)

Explanation:
using the
substitution method
y
=
x
−
5
→
(
1

y
=

2
x
+
4
→
(
2
)
since both equations are expressed in terms of x we

can equate them
⇒
x
−

=
−
2
x
+
4
add 2x to both sides

x

=

add 5 from both sides

x

=

+
5
⇒
3
x
=
9
divide both sides by 3
3
x

=

3
⇒
x
=
3
substitute this value in
(

y
=

=

2
As a check
substitute these values into

A greenhouse is offering a sale on tulip bulbs because they have inadvertently mixed pink bulbs with red bulbs. If 40% of the b

Zolol [24]

<h3>Answer: 0.8704</h3>

Explanation:

40% of the bulbs are pink, 60% are red

the probability of picking pink is 0.40 and the probability of not picking pink is 0.60

The chances of getting 4 non-pink in a row is 0.6*0.6*0.6*0.6 = 0.6^4 = 0.1296

The complement to this event is getting at least one pink bulb, which has a chance of 1-0.1296 = 0.8704

0.8704 converts to 87.04%

Slope intercept form is y=MX+b.
M is the slope, x is the x intercept, and b is the y intercept

the slope is
$\frac{ - 2}{1}$
An intercept is where the formula crosses the axis. therefore, the x intercept is .5, and the y intercept is 1
so the point slope formula is
$y = \frac{ - 2}{1} 0.5 + 1$
