Answer:
the correct answer is b :)))))!!!
Xy = 50
x + y = 15
x = 15 - y
xy = 50
(5 - y)y = 50
5y - y^2 = 50
y^2 - 5y + 50 = 0
(y - 5)(y - 10) = 0
y - 5 = 0 or y - 10 = 0
y = 5 or y = 10
x + y = 15
For y = 5:
x + 5 = 15
x = 10
For y = 10
x + 10 = 15
x = 5
Answer: the numbers are 5 and 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
ii.
21 - 5 = 16 play only chess.
iii.
23 - 5 = 18 play only cards
5 play both.
that is 16+18+5 = 39 that play at least one of these games.
i.
so, 45 - 39 = 6 don't play any of these games.
(b)
we have 16+18 = 34 pupils out of 45 that play exactly one game.
so the probabilty to pick one of them is as usual
desired cases / total cases = 34/45 =
= 0.755555555... ≈ 0.76
Answer:
168 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
5/7x+40+0.75x−118=x
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
5/7x+40+0.75x−118=x
5/7x+40+0.75x+−118=x
(5/7x+0.75x)+(40+−118)=x(Combine Like Terms)
1.464286x+−78=x
1.464286x−78=x
Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.
1.464286x−78−x=x−x
0.464286x−78=0
Step 3: Add 78 to both sides.
0.464286x−78+78=0+78
0.464286x=78
Step 4: Divide both sides by 0.464286.
0.464286x/0.464286=78/0.464286
x=168
