1. there are two methods to solve this system

I.substition

from the first relation we can deduct

2a-b=4

2a=4+b

a=(4+b)/2

now we substitute a in the second relation

(4+b)/2+b=5

we multiply by 2

4+b+2b=10

3b=6

b=6/3=2

a+2=5

a=3

II.reduction

2a-b=4

a+b=5

we can add the two relations together

2a+a-b+b=4+5

3a=9

a=3

3+b=5

b=2

Solve for the value of x by applying the definitions of complementary and supplementary angles

Tatiana [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

x = 52

Step-by-step explanation:

The square corner symbol indicates the sum of the marked angles is 90°. (They are complementary.)

(x +3)° +35° = 90°

x° = 90° -38° = 52°

x = 52

The following question involves a standard deck of 52 playing cards. In such a deck of cards there are four suits of 13 cards ea

olasank [31]

Answer:

(a)No. The probability of drawing a specific second card depends on the identity of the first card.

(b)4/663

(d) 8/663

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)The events are not independent because we are drawing cards without replacement and the probability of drawing a specific second card depends on the identity of the first card.

(b) P(ace on 1st card and jack on 2nd).

$P$(Ace on 1st card) =\dfrac{4}{52}\\ P$(Jack on 2nd card)=\dfrac{4}{51}\\\\$Therefore:\\P(ace on 1st card and jack on 2nd) =\dfrac{4}{52}\times \dfrac{4}{51}\\=\dfrac{4}{663}$

(c)P(jack on 1st card and ace on 2nd)

$P$(Jack on 1st card) =\dfrac{4}{52}\\ P$(Ace on 2nd card)=\dfrac{4}{51}\\\\$Therefore:\\P(jack on 1st card and ace on 2nd) =\dfrac{4}{52}\times \dfrac{4}{51}\\=\dfrac{4}{663}$

(d)Probability of drawing an ace and a jack in either order.

We can either draw an ace first, jack second or jack first, ace second.

Therefore:

P(drawing an ace and a jack in either order) =P(AJ)+(JA)

From parts (b) and (c) above:

$P$(jack on 1st card and ace on 2nd) =\dfrac{4}{663}\\P$(ace on 1st card and jack on 2nd) =\dfrac{4}{663}\\$Therefore:\\P(drawing an ace and a jack in either order)=\dfrac{4}{663}+\dfrac{4}{663}\\=\dfrac{8}{663}$
