Answer:

x=0 , y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

2x +6y= 8 .....eqn 1

4x +12y= 16....eqn2

we multiply eqn 1 by 2.. because we want at least one variable to have the same coefficient so we can simply.

2x +6y =8... ×2

will give you 4x +12y = 16....eqn 3

so now we subtract eqn 2 from eqn 3

4x + 12y= 16

- 4x + 12y = 16

_____________

0 + 0 = 0

therefore x = 0 and y= 0

Suppose a deck of cards contains 13 cards:

ira [324]

Answer:

$P(G_1) = \frac{5}{13}$

$P(G_2) = \frac{1}{3}$

$P(X \ge 1) = \frac{25}{39}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$G = 5$

$R = 4$

$B = 4$

$n = 13$

Solving (a): $P(G_1)$

This is calculated as:

$P(G_1) = \frac{G}{n}$

$P(G_1) = \frac{5}{13}$

Solving (b): $P(G_2)$

This is calculated as:

$P(G_2) = \frac{G - 1}{n - 1}$ -- this is so because the selection is without replacement

$P(G_2) = \frac{5 - 1}{13 - 1}$

$P(G_2) = \frac{4}{12}$

$P(G_2) = \frac{1}{3}$

Solving (c): $P(X \ge 1)$

Using the complement rule, we have:

$P(X \ge 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)$

To calculate $P(X = 0)$ , we have:

$G = 5$ --- Green

$G' = 8$ ---- Not green

The probability that both selections are not green is:

$P(X = 0) = P(G'_1) * P(G'_2)$

So, we have:

$P(X = 0) = \frac{G'}{n} * \frac{G'-1}{n-1}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{8}{13} * \frac{8-1}{13-1}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{8}{13} * \frac{7}{12}$

Simplify

$P(X = 0) = \frac{2}{13} * \frac{7}{3}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{14}{39}$

Recall that:

$P(X \ge 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)$

$P(X \ge 1) = 1 - \frac{14}{39}$

Take LCM

$P(X \ge 1) = \frac{39 -14}{39}$

$P(X \ge 1) = \frac{25}{39}$

For the upcoming holiday season, Dorothy wants to mold 20 bars of chocolate into tiny pyramids. Each bar of chocolate contains 6

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

So each bar contains 6 and she has 20 so 6 times 20=120

pyramid volume=legnth times width times height times 1/3
v=base times height times 1/2
v=1 times 2 times 1/3
v=2/3
volume of 1 pyramid is 2/3 cubic inches

divide 120 by 2/3 to find out how many pyrimds will fit into amount given
120/1 divide by 2/3=120/1 times 3/2=360/2=180

she can make 180 pyramids
