Answer:

  D.  (-3, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations have different coefficients for x and y, so will have one solution. The solutions offered are easily tested in either equation.

Using (x, y) = (-2, -3):

  x = y -1  ⇒  -2 = -3 -1 . . . . False

Using (x, y) = (-3, -2):

  x = y -1  ⇒  -3 = -2 -1 . . . .True

  2x = 3y  ⇒  2(-3) = 3(-2) . . . . True

The solution is (-3, -2).

__

If you'd like to solve the set of equations, substitution for x works nicely.

  2(y -1) = 3y

  2y -2 = 3y . . eliminate parentheses

  -2 = y . . . . . . subtract 2y

  x = -2 -1 = -3

The solution is (x, y) = (-3, -2).

One card is selected at random from a deck of card. Determine the probability that the card selected is not a 4
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

12/13

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes over the total number of outcomes.

Assuming that this is a standard deck of playing cards, there will be 52 cards, and there will be 4 "4" cards.

First, find the number of desired outcomes, and put it over the total number of outcomes.

Out of the total number of outcomes (52), there are 4 outcomes that are not wanted, hence the equation is:

52 - 4 = 48

So out of the 52 possible outcomes, 48 are desired. Set up the fraction and

simplify:

48/52

/4   /4

= 12/13
