We have,

x+y:x-y=3:2

To prove that, x+ y : x - y = 3:2.

x+y=3

And,

x+y = 2

Adding (1) and (2), we get

x+y+x-y=3+2

⇒2x=5

⇒ x =

Put x = in (1), we get

+y=3

⇒ y=3-=

x+y:x-y=

=3:2

So, x+y:x-y=3:2.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

A) $\dfrac{11}{23}$

B) $\dfrac{88}{345}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A survey of 46 college athletes found that

24 played volleyball,
22 played basketball.

A) If we pick one athlete survey participant at random, the probability they play basketball is

$P_1=\dfrac{22}{46}=\dfrac{11}{23}$

B) If we pick 2 athletes at random (without replacement),

the probability we get one volleyball player is $\dfrac{24}{46}=\dfrac{12}{23};$
the probability we get another basketball player is $\dfrac{22}{45}$ (only 45 athletes left).

Thus, the probability we get one volleyball player and one basketball player is

$P_2=\dfrac{12}{23}\cdot \dfrac{22}{45}=\dfrac{88}{345}$
