Answer:

Elgas is 35.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up an equation.

Alvin is 7 years younger than Elgas.

A = E - 7

The sum of their ages is 63.

A + E = 63

Let's use substitution.

Plug in the first equation of A into the second equation.

A + E = 63

(E - 7) + E = 63

Combine like terms.

2E - 7 = 63

Add 7 to both sides.

2E = 70

Divide both sides by 2.

E = 35

Elgas is 35.

Hope this helps!

The distance between two points is 6_/6.One endpoint is (4,-1). It is known that the y-coordinate of the other endpoint is 9.
babunello [35]

The x-coordinate of the given endpoint will be "x = 4 \pm 2\sqrt{29}".

According to the question,

The end points are:

  • (x_1,y_1) = (4,-1)
  • (x_2, y_2) = (x,9)

Distance,

  • 6\sqrt{6}

As we know,

The distance formula,

→ Distance = \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

By substituting the values, we get

→         6\sqrt{6} = \sqrt{(x-4)^2+(9+1)^2}

→          216= (x-4)^2+100

→   (x-4)^2 = 116

→       x-4 = \pm \sqrt{116}

→       x-4=\pm 2\sqrt{29}

→             x = 4 \pm 2\sqrt{29}                

Thus the above answer is right.

Let event A = You roll an even number on the first cube.Let event B = You roll a 6 on the second cube.Are the events independent
Gnesinka [82]

The events are independent. By definition, it means that knowledge about one event does not help you predict the second, and this is the case: even if you knew that you rolled an even number on the first cube, would you be more or less confident about rolling a six on the second? No.

An example in which two events about rolling cubes are dependent could be something like:

Event A: You roll the first cube

Event B: The second cube returns a higher number than the first one.

In this case, knowledge on event A does change you view on event B (and vice versa): if you know that you rolled a 6 on the first cube you don't want to bet on event B, while if you know that you rolled a 1 on the first cube, you're certain that event B will happen.

Conversely, if you know that event B has happened, you are more likely to think that the first cube rolled a small number, and vice versa.
