-200,-100,-25,0,30
Step-by-step explanation:
negatives will always be less than positives with negatives you put greatest to least and then 0 and then positives from least to greatest
An easy way to do this is by using the simplest equations you can:
x + y and x - y
(3, 5) is (x, y). all you have to do is plug those into your equations and get a result, so:
x + y = 8
(because 3 + 5 = 8)
x - y = -2
(because 3 - 5 = -2)
and those can serve as your system of equations.
you can check it by solving by substitution:
x - y = -2
x + y = 8
solve one of the equations for a single variable:
x = y - 2
plug it into the second equation:
(y - 2) + y = 8
y - 2 + y = 8
2y - 2 = 8
2y = 10
y = 5
then plug that result back into the equation:
x + y = 8
x + 5 = 8
x = 3
3 blue, 2 red, 5 white........total of 10 sweaters
probability that red is picked first : 2/10 reduces to 1/5
replace
probability of second pick being white : 5/10 reduces to 1/2
replace
probability of third pick being blue : 3/10
probability of all of this happening : 1/5 * 1/2 * 3/10 = 3/100 <==
Let, the age of Mary = M
Age of John = J = 2M
System of Equation would be: M + J = 52
or M + 2M = 52
3M = 52
M = 52/3
M = 17 1/3 Years
J = 34 2/3 Years
Hope this helps!
