The answer would be A. When using Cramer's Rule to solve a system of equations, if the determinant of the coefficient matrix equals zero and neither numerator determinant is zero, then the system has infinite solutions. It would be hard finding this answer when we use the Cramer's Rule so instead we use the Gauss Elimination. Considering the equations:

x + y = 3 and <span>2x + 2y = 6
Determinant of the equations are </span>
<span>| 1 1 | </span>
<span>| 2 2 | = 0
</span>
the numerator determinants would be
<span>| 3 1 | . .| 1 3 | </span>
<span>| 6 2 | = | 2 6 | = 0.
Executing Gauss Elimination, any two numbers, whose sum is 3, would satisfy the given system. F</span>or instance (3, 0), <span>(2, 1) and (4, -1). Therefore, it would have infinitely many solutions. </span>

finlep [7]

Answer:

0.3157

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that according to a certain news poll, 71% agreed that it should be the government's responsibility to provide a decent standard of living for the elderly,

Let A be the event that it should be the government's responsibility to provide a decent standard of living for the elderly, and B the event that it would be a good idea to invest part of their Social Security taxes on their own

P(B) = 41%=0.41

A and B are independent

Hence P(both)=0.77(0.41) = 0.3157\\

the probability that a person agreed with both propositions

= Probability for both A and B

= P(A) P(B) since A and B are independent

= 0.3157
