Assume you have applied for two scholarships, a Merit scholarship (M) and an Athletic scholarship (A). The probability that you

receive an Athletic scholarship is 0.18. The probability of receiving both scholarships is 0.11. The probability of getting at least one of the scholarships is 0.3. What is the probability that you will receive a Merit scholarship

Answer:

The answer is D

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find it by expanding the equation in the form of y = mx + b :

y - 4 = 3(x + 1)

y - 4 = 3x + 3

y = 3x + 3 + 4

y = 3x + 7

Then, looking at the equation "b" is a y-intercept. The line that touch/passes through y-axis is called <u>y</u><u>-</u><u>i</u><u>n</u><u>t</u><u>e</u><u>r</u><u>c</u><u>e</u><u>p</u><u>t</u>. From the equation, we know that 7 is the y-intercept.

By looking at the diagram, only Graph D is suitable for this equation because the line has touches 7 at y-axis.

Solve the following system of equations by graphing and select the correct answer below:

JulijaS [17]

Answer: option c

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the x-intercept and y-intercept of each line.

To find the x-intercept, substitute $y=0$ into the equation and solve for "x".

To find the y-intercept, substitute $x=0$ into the equation and solve for "y".

- For the first equation:

x-intercept

$4x + 3y = 29\\\\4x + 3(0)= 29\\\\4x=29\\\\x=\frac{29}{4}\\\\x=7.25$

y-intercept

$4x + 3y = 29\\\\4(0) + 3y = 29\\\\3y=29\\\\y=\frac{29}{3}\\\\y=9.66$

Graph a line that passes through the points (7.25, 0) and (0, 9.66)

- For the second equation:

x-intercept

$2x - 3y = 1 \\\\2x - 3(0) = 1 \\\\2x=1\\\\x=0.5$

y-intercept

$2x - 3y = 1\\\\2(0) - 3y = 1\\\\-3y=1\\\\y=-0.33$

Graph a line that passes through the points (0.5, 0) and (0, -0.33)

Observe the graph attached. You can see that point of intersection of the lines is (5,3); then this is the solution of the system. Therefore:

$x=5\\y=3$

Simplify the expression state any excluded values<br> 2a^2-4a+2<br> ---------------<br> 3a^2-3

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The simplified form is $\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$ .

$x =1$ is the excluded value for the given expression.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The expression given is:

$\dfrac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}$

Let us simplify the numerator and denominator separately.

The numerator is given as $2a^2-4a+2$

2 is a common factor in all the three terms. So, we factor it out. This gives,

$=2(a^2-2a+1)$

Now, $a^2-2a+1=(a-1)(a-1)$

Therefore, the numerator becomes $2(a-1)(a-1)$

The denominator is given as: $3a^2-3$

Factoring out 3, we get

$3(a^2-1)$

Now, $a^2-1$ is of the form $a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)$

So, $a^2-1=(a-1)(a+1)$

Therefore, the denominator becomes $3(a-1)(a+1)$

Now, the given expression is simplified to:

$\frac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}=\frac{2(x-1)(x-1)}{3(x-1)(x+1)}$

There is $(x-1)$ in the numerator and denominator. We can cancel them only if $x\ne1$ as for $x=1$ , the given expression is undefined.

Now, cancelling the like terms considering $x\ne1$ , we get:

$\dfrac{2a^2-4a+2}{3a^2-3}=\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$

Therefore, the simplified form is $\dfrac{2(x-1)}{3(x+1)}$

The simplification is true only if $x\ne1$ . So, $x =1$ is the excluded value for the given expression.
