THERE IS A 41% CHANCE HIS NEXT READING MATERIAL WILL BE A MAGAZINE
Natasha_Volkova [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: 0.41 or 41%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of magazines = 20

The total number of reading material available =12+20+17=49

Now, the probability that stephen's next reading material is a magazine is given by :-

\text{P(magazine)}=\frac{\text{Number of magazines}}{\text{total reading material}}\\\\\Rightarrow\text{P(magazine)}=\frac{20}{49}\\\\\Rightarrow\text{P(magazine)}=0.408163265306\approx 0.41

In percent, 0.41\times100=41\%

What is the solution of the system?
spin [16.1K]
The Answer is b: x = 18, y = -20

Proof:

Solve the following system:
{4 x + 3 y = 12 | (equation 1)
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 2)

Swap equation 1 with equation 2:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{4 x + 3 y = 12 | (equation 2)

Subtract 4/7 × (equation 1) from equation 2:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y/7 = (-20)/7 | (equation 2)

Multiply equation 2 by 7:
{7 x + 5 y = 26 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)

Subtract 5 × (equation 2) from equation 1:
{7 x+0 y = 126 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)

Divide equation 1 by 7:
{x+0 y = 18 | (equation 1)
{0 x+y = -20 | (equation 2)

Collect results:

Answer: {x = 18, y = -20

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-19, -33) and (47, 5)
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
Hello there! Slope is rise/run. The formula for finding slope is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1, where you subtract the first x and y-coordinates from the second x and y-coordinates. In other words, the order that the coordinates show up for this problem will be used in that order. For this case, here are the numbers that will be used for each.

y2: 5
y1 : -33
x2: 47
x1: -19

Let's plug it in to get 5 - (-33) / 47 - (-19). Now, let's subtract. Just by looking at the numbers, we will actually be adding the numbers, because when you add a negative number, you actually add. So 5 + 33 is 38. 47 + 19 is 66. 38/66 is 19/33 in simplest form. There. The slope of the line is 19/33.
