Solve the following system of equations by linear combination: 2d + e = 8 d – e = 4

Mathematics

Cerrena [4.2K]3 years ago

Because there is a +e and a -e in the two equations we can simply add them together to solve for d...

2d+e+d-e=8+4  combine like terms

3d=12 divide by 3

d=4,  now use this d in either original equation to solve for e...<span>d–e=4 so

4-e=4 subtract 4

-e=0 

e=0

So the solution, where the lines intersect graphically, is the point (4, 0)</span>

I need help with this
Stells [14]

Answer:

AB = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have two triangles (AEB and ADC), and they're similar by AA

Now, you can find the ratio of similitude by checking AE/AD which is 14/26 = 7/13

AB/AC = 7/13

Take AB as x aight

x/x+18 = 7/13

x=21

Riverdale High ordered 84 shirts with their logo on them. if 8 of the shirts were defective what percent of the shirts were not
Ymorist [56]

8 were defective.

Defective percent = 8/84 x 100 = 9.5238% were defective.

Percent not defective = 100% - 9.5238% = 90.4761%

Rounding to the nearest tenth 90.5% were not defective.

The question doesn’t say how to round the answer so you may need to round differently than I did.

A popular game requires the player to select the same five numbers out of a set of allowed numbers that will be drawn at random
solmaris [256]

Options:

A.) decrease because the same five numbers are not likely to occur again so soon.

B.) Increase because those five numbers must be lucky.

C.) be unaffected because every set of five numbers is equally likely on every attempt.

D.) be unknown because it depends on how many times those five numbers have won in the last several drawings.

Answer:

be unaffected because every set of five numbers is equally likely on every attempt.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number selection in the lottery is randomized with each set of number having equal chances of being selected. This means that each and every selection attempt is independent and the outcome of each attempt does not depend on any prior outcome or event. This means that if the numbers drawn from the most previous prior drawing are selected on the next attempt, the probability of winning on the next attempt Neither increases nor decreases. Hence , the probability of winning on the next attempt with this selection is unaffected.

What is 1 and 3/4 as an improper fraction
EastWind [94]

\huge\boxed{\frac{7}{4}}

First, turn 1 into an improper fraction with a denominator of 4, which matches \frac{3}{4}.

\displaystyle 1 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{4}{4} + \frac{3}{4}

Now, just add the numerators.

\displaystyle \frac{4}{4} + \frac{3}{4} = \boxed{\frac{7}{4}}
