Answer:

All you need to do is make sure the first expression is solved for y (which it is), and then substitute it into the second expression in place of any occurrences of y:

given the second expression:

x - y = 1

We'll replace y with it's value in the first expression:

x - (y) = 1

x - (5 - 2x) = 1

Now we can expand the resulting equation:

x - 5 + 2x = 1

So <em>neither</em> of the answers provided are correct.

You can then solve for x:

x - 5 + 2x = 1

x - 5 + 5 + 2x = 1 + 5

x + 2x = 6

3x = 6

3x/3 = 6/3

x = 2

After that, you can find y by plugging x into either of the two original equations:

y = 5 - 2x

y = 5 - 2(2)

y = 5 - 4

y = 1

Does anyone know how to do this ?

Answer: D) 32

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram equals its base times its height. Substitute the base and area into this formula to solve for the height:

A=bh

40=(5)(h)

h=8

If ABCD is a parallelogram, opposite sides are parallel, so AB is parallel to DC. If AB is parallel to DC, EB is parallel to DC. Since EB is parallel to DC, quadrilateral EBCD has at least one pair of parallel sides, making it a trapezoid. The area of a trapezoid is equal to \frac{h(b_{1}+b_{2})  }{2} where h is the height, b_{1} is one base, and b_{2} is the other base. Plug the necessary values into the formula:

A=\frac{h(b_{1}+b_{2})  }{2}

b_{1} =AB-AE\\DC=AB\\b_{1} =DC-AE\\b_{1} =5-2\\b_{1} =3

b_{2} =5

h=8

A=\frac{8(3+5)}{2}

A=32

The answer is D) 32.

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Number of ways = 59C5 × 35= 59!/(54!*5!)* 35= 175223510

Odds are thus 1 in 175223510

b) 1 million - Number of ways = 59!/(54!*5!) =5006386*35/34 = 5153632

Odds are thus 1 in 5153632
