Answer:
subtract from both sides and then multiplying both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
how can you solve y = -2x + 25 by subtraction
The price of one hat is $2 and one pair of mittens is $5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hats and mittens are on sale at the store!
- One woman was able to buy 5 hats and 4 pairs of mittens for $30
- Another woman purchased 3 pairs of mittens and 2 hats for $19
- The price of one hat is x
- The price of one pair of mittens is y
We need to find x and y
∵ One woman was able to buy 5 hats and 4 pairs of mittens for $30
∵ The price of one hat is x
∵ The price of one pair of mittens is y
- Multiply 5 hats by x and 4 pairs of mittens by y and equate
their sum by 30
∴ 5x + 4y = 30 ⇒ (1)
∵ Another woman purchased 3 pairs of mittens and 2 hats for $19
- Multiply 2 hats by x and 3 pairs of mittens by y and equate
their sum by 19
∴ 2x + 3y = 19 ⇒ (2)
Now we have a system of equations to solve it
Multiply equation (1) by -2 and equation (2) by 5 to eliminate x
∵ -10x - 8y = -60 ⇒ (3)
∵ 10x + 15y = 95 ⇒ (4)
- Add equations (3) and (4)
∴ 7y = 35
- Divide both sides by 7
∴ y = 5
Substitute the value of y in equation (1) or (2) to find x
∵ 2x + 3(5) = 19
∴ 2x + 15 = 19
- Subtract 15 from both sides
∴ 2x = 4
- Divide both sides by 2
∴ x = 2
The price of one hat is $2 and one pair of mittens is $5

Answer:
y= -4x^2 + 15x - 14
Step-by-step explanation:
A parabola is always in the form y = ax^2 + bx + c.
Substitute each point to produce different equations:
-14 = 0a + 0b + c = c
so c = -14
-3 = a1^2 + b1 + c = a + b - 14
so a + b = 11
0 = a2^2 + b2 + c = 4a + 2b -14 = 0
so 4a + 2b = 14
if we double a + b = 11 we get 2a + 2b = 22
Subtract this from 4a + 2b = 14 and we get 2a = -8 so a= -4 and b = 11 - a = 15
We don't need to use the (3,5) points as we have all the information we need.
Answer:
a) 0.8333
b) 0.75
c) 0.8181 or 0.9090
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
The probability the visitor selects an authentic painting is
10/12 = 0.8333
b)
Since the opinion of the expert does not depend on your choice, the events are <em>independent</em>, so the probability that the expert says is authentic and it really is, is
0.8333*0.9 = 0.75
c)
If the expert decides the painting is a copy and it is not, then there are 11 paintings of which 9 are authentic, so the probability the visitor selects a new original painting is
9/11= 0.8181
If the expert decides the painting is a copy and it is, then there are 11 paintings of which 10 are authentic, so the probability the visitor selects a new original painting is
10/11= 0.9090
