Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given:

-2x+y=4     ---------equation1

3x+4y=49 ---------equation 2

We will solve the 1st equation for y and substitute the value into the 2nd equation.

-2x+y=4     ---------equation1

Move the values to the R.H.S except y

y = 2x+4

Now substitute the value of y in  2nd equation:

3x+4y=49

3x+4(2x+4)=49

3x+8x+16=49

Combine the like terms:

3x+8x=49-16

11x=33

Now divide both the sides by 11

11x/11 = 33/11

x= 3

Now substitute the value of x in any of the above equations: We will substitute the value in equation 1:

-2x+y=4

-2(3)+y=4

-6+y=4

Combine the constants:

y=4+6

y = 10

Thus the solution set of (x,y) is {(3,10)}....

Select the favorable outcomes for rolling a sum less than five
Anvisha [2.4K]
We want the sum of the two rolls to be less that five.
Therefore, we will examine each given set of choices and choose the one where all the points have a sum less than 5.

First set: all the point are 5 added to another number. Therefore, the sum is definitely not less than 5. This choice is rejected.

Second set: We have two points having 6 added to a number. Therefore, this choice is also rejected.

Third set: We have the points (5,5) and (6,6) which have a sum greater than 5. Therefore, this set is also rejected.

Fourth set: We have:
(1,1) with sum = 2
(1,2) with sum = 3
(1,3) with sum = 4
(2,1) with sum = 3
(2,2) with sum = 4
(3,1) with sum = 4
Therefore, all sums are less than 5. This is the correct choice.

Based on the above, the correct option is the last one.
