Shawn has $5 more than Rj and Riley has $10 less than Shawn. If there combined total is $414, how much does

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Rj has $138$ dollars, Shawn has $143$ dollars, and Riley has $133$ dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make the amount of money Rj has $x$ , so Shawn would have $5+x$ dollars, and Riley would have $(5+x)-10$ dollars. Altogether they have $414$ dollars, so you can create an equation.

$x+(5+x)+((5+x)-10)=414\\3x+0=414\\3x=414\\x=138$

Now that we know that $x=138$ , we can substitute x into each equation.

Rj has $138$ dollars, Shawn has $143$ dollars, and Riley has $133$ dollars.

A committee of 15 members is voting on a proposal. Each member casts a yea or nay vote. On a random voting basis, what is the pr

Igoryamba

Answer:

0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they vote yes, or they vote no. The probability of a person voting yes or no is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

Random voting:

So 50% of voting yes, 50% no, so $p = 0.5$

15 members:

This means that $n = 15$

What is the probability that the final vote count is unanimous?

Either all vote no(P(X = 0)) or all vote yes(P(X = 15)). So

$p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{15,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{15} = 0.00003$

$P(X = 15) = C_{15,15}.(0.5)^{15}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.00003$

$p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15) = 0.00003 + 0.00003 = 0.00006$

0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

The value of y varies directly with x. If x = 6, then y = 27. What is the value of y when x = 10 ?

Alik [6]

B - 45 because 27 divided by 6 is 4.5 and then 10x4.5=44

2x+3y= 14 3х - 4 y = 4

goldenfox [79]

The solution to given system of equations are (x, y) = (4, 2)

Solution:

Given system of equations are:

2x + 3y = 14 ---------- eqn 1

3x - 4y = 4 --------- eqn 2

We have to solve the given system of equations

We can solve the above system of equations by elimination method

Multiply eqn 1 by 3

3(2x + 3y = 14)

6x + 9y = 42 --------- eqn 3

Multiply eqn 2 by 2

2(3x - 4y = 4)

6x - 8y = 8 ----------- eqn 4

Subtract eqn 4 from eqn 3

6x + 9y = 42

6x - 8y = 8

( - ) --------------

9y + 8y = 42 - 8

17y = 34

Substitute y = 2 in eqn 1

2x + 3(2) = 14

2x + 6 = 14

2x = 14 - 6

2x = 8

Thus the solution to given system of equations are (x, y) = (4, 2)
