Answer:
A. $1,710
B. Yes, probably.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that a 10% decrease in energy use leads to a 10% decrease in the electric bill:
We'll want to find the value which is 10% less than the original value, i.e., the bill cost which is 90% of the original bill.
90% = 0.9
Since the original bill was $1900, we can just multiply 1900 by 0.9:
Answer: A bill of $1,710 would equal a 10% decrease.
Since $1,672 is less than that, then they have decreased their energy use by more than 10% which is likely a success.
Answer: Yes, probably.
Answer:
(5/11)(1/10)
Step-by-step explanation:
probability of picking blue = 5/11
Now there are only 10 pencils
probability of picking yellow = 1/10
probability of picking blue, then yellow = (5/11)(1/10) = 1/22

Answer: B) no solutions</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
Let's isolate the variable y in the first equation
-2x - y = 1
-2x = 1 + y
1+y = -2x
y = -2x-1
Then we'll plug this into the second equation
-4x - 2y = -1
-4x - 2(-2x-1) = -1
-4x + 4x + 2 = -1
0x + 2 = -1
0 + 2 = -1
2 = -1
We run into a contradiction. No matter what x value we pick, the last equation will never be true. This leads to a domino effect to cause the first set of original equations to never be true when considered as a system.
Therefore, this system is inconsistent. There are no solutions. These two lines graph out parallel lines that never intersect.
Tan 40 = h / 20 where h = height of the pole.
h = 20 tan 40 = 16.78 feet
