Let's solve by eliminating
x
. Since 18 is the lowest common multiple , let's multiply the first equation by 3 and the second by -2.
Add the two equations.
Divide by -11 to isolate
y
y= -2
Substitute
y
=
−
2
into either of the 2 equations, I'll just use the second one.
x = -1
When the black chip is drawn, there is already one less chip in the bag; keep this in mind..
the probability of getting a black chip out of the bag is 10/25 or 2/5
now since there is one less chip, there is a total of 24 chips now..
so now the probability of getting a red chip is 5/24
then you would multiply the two events together and get:
2/5 x 5/24....solve
Answer:
a) 1/2
b) 9/40
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Total number of families living in Willbrook Farms Development = 20
Number of families preparing their own federal income taxes for last year = 10
Number of families for which taxes were prepared by a local professional = 7
Number of families for which taxes were prepared by H&R Block = 3
a) Probability of selecting a family that prepared their own taxes = 10/20 = 1/2
b) The probability of selecting two families, both of which prepared their own taxes
10/20 * 9/20 = 9/40
Answer:
1000000 = 1 MLN CODES
Step-by-step explanation:
According the terms of the problems the code has 6 digits or has 6 positions.
At 1st position any of 10 digits (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 or 9 ) can put
The digits can repeated, so at position 2 any of 10 difits can put.
At position 3 again any of 10 digits can put and similarly for each of next positions can be put any of 10 digits.
So each position of the code has 10 possible variants.
To find the total number of possible codes we have to multiply the number of variants for each position to each other.
N=10*10*10*10*10*10= 10^6=1 000 000
