Mathematics
1 answer:
umka2103 [35]3 years ago

So first convert to improper fractions
7 and 7/8=7+7/8=56/8+7/8=63/8

3 and 1/4=3+1/4=12/4+1/4=13/4

so nowe we have
63/8+13/4
convert bottom number to same
which is 8
13/4 times 2/2=26/8
now we have
63/8-26/8=37/8=4 and 5/8
answer is 4 and 5/8

Solve the system of linear equations.
icang [17]

Answer: The set does not have a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Adding Equations 1 & 3 we get 5x = 7. This gives x = 7/5

Putting this value of x in eq. 2 we get

-2y + 2z = -1-(7/5) or

2y - 2z = 12/5  or  5y - 5z = 6

Multiplying eq. 1 by 2  we get  

4x + 2y - 2z = 6

adding this with eq. 2 we get 5x = 5 or x = 1

As the common solution for x from equations 1&3 does not satisfy eq. 1&2 it comes out that the three equations do not have a common solution.

Same can be verified by using different sets of two equations also.

In a lottery game, a player picks six numbers from 1 to 22. If the player matches all six numbers, they win 20,000 dollars. Othe
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Total possible number of outcomes = C(24,6) [24 choose 6]

=24!/(6!18!)

= 134596

Out of which there is only one winning combination.

Therefore we conclude:

P(win 20000)=1/134596

P(lose 1)=134595/134596

and hence the expected value is:

20000*(1/134596)+(-1)*(134595/134596)

=-114595/134596

=-0.8514 (rounded to four places after decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helped!

Marty made a $220 bank deposit using $10 bills and $5 bills. She gave the teller a total of 38 bills, how many $5 bills were in
Luda [366]

ANSWER: 32 five-dollar bills

======

EXPLANATION:

Let x be number of $5 bills

Let y be number of $10 bills

Since we have total of 38 bills, we must have the sum of x and y be 38

x + y = 38 (I)

Since the total amount deposited is $220, we must have the sum of 5x and 10y be 220 (x and y are just the "number of" their respective bills, so we multiply them by their value to get the total value):

5x + 10y = 220 (II)

System of equations:

\left\{ \begin{aligned} x + y &= 38 && \text{(I)} \\ 5x + 10y &= 220 && \text{(II)} \end{aligned} \right.

Divide both sides of equation (II) by 5 so our numbers become smaller

\left\{ \begin{aligned} x + y &= 38 && \text{(I)} \\ x + 2y &= 44 && \text{(II)} \end{aligned} \right.

Rearrange (I) to solve for y so that we can substitute into (II)

\begin{aligned} x + y &= 38 && \text{(I)} \\ y &= 38 - x \end{aligned}

Substituting this into equation (II) for the y:

\begin{aligned} x + 2y &= 44 && \text{(II)} \\ x + 2(38 - x) &= 44\\ x + 76 - 2x &= 44 \\ -x &= -32 \\ x &= 32 \end{aligned}

We have 32 five-dollar bills

======

If we want to finish off the question, use y = 38 - x to figure out number of $10 bills

y = 38 - 32 = 6

32 five-dollar bills and 6 ten-dollar bills

Helpppppppppp!!! :( math up ):
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

A 4/5 × 10 1/2 =8.4

B 2 1/2 × 16/5 =8

C 3 2/3 × 2 1/2 = 330/36 = 9.1666

D 20/3 × 9/10 =6

C IS THE GREATEST because 9.166 is greater than 8.4, 8 and 6
