Answer:

x = 3 , y = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that both equations is equal to y. Set the two equations equal to each other

y = 7x - 8; y = 5x - 2

7x - 8 = y = 5x - 2

7x - 8 = 5x - 2

Isolate the x. Subtract 5x and add 8 to both sides

7x (-5x) - 8 (+8) = 5x (-5x) - 2 (+8)

7x - 5x = -2 + 8

Simplify.

(7x - 5x) = (-2 + 8)

2x = 6

Isolate the x. Divide 2 from both sides

(2x)/2 = (6)/2

x = 6/2

x = 3

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Plug in 3 for x in one of the equations.

y = 7x - 8

y = 7(3) - 8

Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS.

y = 7(3) - 8

y = 21 - 8

y = 13

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

x = 3, y = 13 is your answer

What is the probability of rolling a dice at most 3 times until a 6 occurs
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Probablity of getting six in at most three roll= 0.199.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Dice rolled at most 3 times untill a 6 occurs.

First, finding the probablity of getting 6 in a dice if rolled once.

Probablity= \frac{chances\ of\ occurance}{Total\ number\ of\ event}

We know, dice have six side, therefore, total number of event will be 6.

∴ Probablity of getting six in one roll= \frac{1}{6}

As given, Dice is rolled at most 3 times.

Now, finding the probablity of getting 6 in a dice if rolled 3 times.

∴ Probablity of getting six in three roll= \frac{1}{6}+(\frac{1}{6})^{2} +(\frac{1}{6})^{3}

⇒ Probablity of getting six in three roll=  \frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{36} +\frac{1}{216}

Taking LCD 216

⇒Probablity of getting six in three roll= \frac{1\times 36+ 6\times 1+1}{216}

⇒Probablity of getting six in three roll= \frac{43}{216}

∴Probablity of getting six in three roll=0.199

Answer:

• x = 9

• y = 6√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangles are all similar, so the ratios of hypotenuse to short side are the same:

27/x = x/3

x^2 = 81 . . . . . multiply by 3x

x = 9 . . . . . . . . take the square root

Then y can be found from the Pythagorean theorem:

x^2 = y^2 + 3^2

81 - 9 = y^2 = 72 . . . . . subtract 9

y = √72 = 6√2 . . . . . . .take the square root

The values of x and y are 9 and 6√2, respectively.

crimeas [40]

It says that b represents Becky’s score and c represents Cathy’s score.

Becky’s score was 5 less than Cathy’s score, its equation can be written as :-

b = c - 5

It says that their combined score totaled 185, its equation can be written as :-

b + c = 185

So, correct pair of equations is b = c - 5 and b + c = 185.
