There are 45 numbers out of which 5 numbers are required to win an enormous sum of money

No of ways  in which 5 numbers can be selected out of 45 numbers.

C_{45}^5=\frac{45!}{40!5!} =1221759

out of which there is only combination foe contest winning

P=\frac{1}{1221759}

When 100 different tickets are bought then

Probability of winning: \frac{100}{1221759}

Probably of winning≈0,000082

To solve for the width and the length of the pool, you will use the formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism.  You will represent the length and the width of the pool in terms of w, the width.

Please see the attached picture for the work.

The width of the pool is 20 feet.

The length of the pool is 3 x 20 ft or 60 feet.

Julian has to read 4 articles for school. He has 8 nights to read them. He decides to read the same number of articles each nigh
daser333 [38]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

a. He will have to read half an article per night

b. Fraction of the reading assignment read each night = \frac{0.5}{4}=\frac{1}{8}

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>Part a:</u>

<u>We are given that:</u>

number of articles to read = 4 articles

number of nights = 8 nights

To get the number of articles that he should read per night, we will simply divide the the number of articles by the number of nights

<u>Therefore:</u>

number of articles to read per night = \frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{2} articles per night

<u>Part b:</u>

Now, we know that he will read half an article each night from a total of 4 articles

To get the fraction of the reading assignment read each night, we will divide the number of articles read each night by the total number of assignments

<u>Therefore:</u>

Fraction of the reading assignment read each night = \frac{0.5}{4}=\frac{1}{8}

Hope this helps :)

Pick 2 pairs of equations t<span>hen use addition and subtraction to eliminate </span>the same variable<span> from both pairs of equations then it is left with 2 variables 
</span>Pick two pairs
<span><span>4x - 3y + z = - 10</span><span>2x + y + 3z = 0
</span></span>eliminate the same variable from each system
<span><span>4x - 3y + z = - 10</span> 
<span>2x + y + 3z = 0</span> 

<span>4x - 3y + z = - 10</span> 
<span>-4x - 2y - 6z = 0</span> 

<span>-5y - 5z = - 10</span> 

<span>2x + y + 3z = 0</span> 
<span>- x + 2y - 5z = 17</span> 

<span>2x + y + 3z = 0</span> 
<span>-2x + 4y - 10z = 34</span> 

<span>5y - 7z = 34
</span></span>Solve the system of the two new equations:
<span><span>-5y - 5z = - 10</span> 
<span>5y - 7z = 34</span> 

<span>-12z = 24</span> 
which is , <span>z = - 2</span> 

<span>-5y - 5(- 2) = - 10</span> 
<span>-5y = - 20</span> 
wich is , <span>y = 4
</span></span>substitute into one of the original equations
<span>- x + 2y - 5z = 17</span> 
<span>- x + 2(4) - 5(- 2) = 17</span> 
<span>- x + 18 = 17</span> 
<span>- x = - 1</span> 
<span>x = 1</span> 
<span>which is , </span><span>(x, y, z) = (1, 4, - 2)</span><span>
