So, for the first variable, you would use x, and for the second, y. Then, you would write out 2-(3y)=14. once this is done, youd simplify to 2-3y=14. Subtract 2 from both sides to get 3y=12. Then, divide both sides by 3. this will leave you with y=4. From this you can see the other number is ten. Hope this helped! and i apologize if it is incorrect!

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

$290

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that 1 out of 5 buyers change to a more expensive sofa than the one in the sale advertisement.

Now we are told that the advertised sofa is $250 and the more expensive sofa is $450.

Thus;

P(x) for expensive sofa = 1/5

P(x) for sofa in sale advertisement = 4/5

Thus, expected value is;

E(X) = (1/5)450 + (4/5)250

E(x) = 90 + 200

E(x) = $290
