A box contains 35 gems, of which 10 are real diamonds and 25 are fake diamonds. Gems are randomly taken out of the box, one at a

time without replacement. What is the probability that exactly 2 fakes are selected before the second real diamond is selected

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of ways of selecting 3 gems of any kind without replacement is 35 * 34 * 33 = 39270

Now selecting 2 gems from 25 is 25C2

25 C 2 = 25 * 24/2 = 300

Selecting one good gem is 10

Total selection = 300 * 10 = 3000

P(gems) = 3000 / 39270

P(gems) = 300/3927

P(gems) = 100/1309

What is the solution for the system of equations x+y=2 and x-y=4
dmitriy555 [2]
X+y=2 (label equation one) 
x-y=4 (label equation two)

y=-x+2 (equation one rearranged, label this equation equation three)

sub 3 into 2
x-(-x+2)=4
x+x-2=4
2x-2=4
2x=6
x=3
sub x=3 into equation one

3+y=2
y=-1

therefore x=3 and y=-1

Identify an equation in slope intercept form for the line parallel to Y equals 4X -9 that passes through (-5,3)
Kobotan [32]

Slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b where m= slope and b=y-intercept.

Now compare this form with the tiven equation y=4x-9 to get the value of m.

So, m= 4.

Slope of all parallel lines are always equal. Which means the line which is parallel to this has also the same slope: m=4.

Now we need to find the value of b to get the equation. That parallel line passes through (-5,3).

The point intercept form of a line is,

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

So, we can plug in the m=4, x1=-5 and y1=3 in the above equation. Hence,

y-3=4(x-(-5))

y-3=4(x+5) Since -(-5)=+5

y-3=4x+20 By distributing property.

y=4x+20+3 Adding 3 to each sides.

y=4x+23

So, the slope-intercept form of that parallel line is y=4x+23.
