X-5y=17 then x = 5y + 17
replace x = 5y + 17 into -4x+y=8

-4(5y + 17) +y = 8
-20y - 68 + y = 8
-19y = 8 + 68
-19y = 76
y = 76/-19
y = -4

x = 5y + 17
x = 5(-4) + 17
x = -20 + 17
x = 3

Answer: the order pair (3, -4)

Mae has a number cube with 6 sides that are numbered 1 through 6. What is the probability that Mae will roll an odd number?

Stels [109]

Answer:

C) $P(E) = \frac{3}{6}$

The probability that Mae will roll an odd number

$P(E) = \frac{3}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that Mae has a number cube with 6 sides that are numbered 1 through 6.

n(S) = { 1,2,3,4,5,6,} = 6

Let 'E ' be the event of odd numbers

Mae will roll an odd number

n(E) = {1, 3, 5} = 3

Step(ii):-

The probability that Mae will roll an odd number

$P(E) = \frac{n(E)}{n(S)} = \frac{3}{6}$

$P(E) = \frac{3}{6}$

Find an equation that models the path of a satellite if its path is a hyperbola, a = 55,000 km, and c= 81,000 km. Assume the cen

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

$\frac{x^2}{55000^2} - \frac{y^2}{59464^2} =1$

Step-by-step explanation:

the transverse axis is horizontal.

so its a horizontal hyperbola

Center is the origin so center is (0,0)

Equation of horizontal hyperbola is

$\frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} =1$

Given a= 55000 and c= 81000

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

81000^2 = 55000^2 + b^2

subtract 55000^2 on both sides

b = sqrt(81000^2 - 55000^2)= 59464.27

now plug in the values

$\frac{x^2}{55000^2} - \frac{y^2}{59464^2} =1$
