2x+y=9 (*2) __ 4x+2y=18 name it 1.  8x-2y=6 name it 2. Now add both equations, 1 & 2. 4x+2y+8x+-2y=18+6. 2y will be cancelled out. You'll be left with 12x=24, x=2. Then replace the value of x which is 2 in either equation 1 or 2. I'll go with 1 equation 4(2)+2y=18  2y=18-8=10 y=5. Using the equation 2 should provide the same result of y.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

The probability of drivers who are not intoxicated is P(I¯) and is given as 0.99411.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the event is indicated as I for the drivers who are intoxicated, the value of I¯ is for the drivers who are not intoxicated. Its value is calculated as follows

P(I¯)=1-P(I)

P(I¯)=1-0.00589

P(I¯)=0.99411

So the probability of drivers who are not intoxicated is P(I¯) and is given as 0.99411.
