Answer:

  • A = 4
  • B = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the values of x and y in the equations and solve the resulting system.

  A(2) +(-3) = 5

  A(2) +B(-3) = 20

__

The first equation tells the value of A:

  2A = 8 . . . . add 3

  A = 4 . . . . . .divide by 2

This and the second equation tells the value of B:

  (4)(2) -3B = 20

  -3B = 12 . . . . . subtract 8

  B = -4 . . . . . . . divide by -3

The values of A and B are 4 and -4, respectively.

Suppose that 3 cards are drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that all 3 are diamonds?
Marat540 [252]

There are 13 diamonds in the deck, so \dbinom{13}3 ways of drawing 3 diamonds.

There is a total of \dbinom{52}3 ways of drawing any 3 cards from the deck.

So the probability of drawing 3 diamonds is

\dfrac{\binom{13}3}{\binom{52}3}=\dfrac{11}{850}\approx0.012941

where \dbinom nk=\dfrac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}.

Find sin theta if cot theta = -2 and cos theta < 0
Katarina [22]

cot(<em>θ</em>) = cos(<em>θ</em>)/sin(<em>θ</em>)

So if both cot(<em>θ</em>) and cos(<em>θ</em>) are negative, that means sin(<em>θ</em>) must be positive.

Recall that

cot²(<em>θ</em>) + 1 = csc²(<em>θ</em>) = 1/sin²(<em>θ</em>)

so that

sin²(<em>θ</em>) = 1/(cot²(<em>θ</em>) + 1)

sin(<em>θ</em>) = 1 / √(cot²(<em>θ</em>) + 1)

Plug in cot(<em>θ</em>) = -2 and solve for sin(<em>θ</em>) :

sin(<em>θ</em>) = 1 / √((-2)² + 1)

sin(<em>θ</em>) = 1/√(5)

The sum of three consecutive odd integers is 195. Find the three integers.
Anettt [7]
Good afternoon, 

x= first odd integer 
x+2 = second odd integer
x+4= third intenger

The sum of the trhree integer is 195, so:

x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 195
3x = 195 - 4 - 2
3x=189
x= 63

Then the Answer is: 63, 65 and 67
