B is the answer because the value of x does not repeat
-1=1/2x+3
2=1/2x
(2)2=1/2x(2)
4=x
Answer: x=4
Given data:
Total number of songs = 8
Rock songs = 3
Reggae songs = 2
Country songs = 3
Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes
To find:
When song is selected randomly to play first song and then second song from remaining ones ,
Probability when both the songs are from Reggae songs,
Thus , the probability is 1/28.
I won't answer them all for you (don't want to cheat - need to learn something).
But for the first one given:
<span>-2x-9y=-25
-4x-9y=-23
you set up either x or y (which ever one you want to eliminate) so that one of them cancels.
So this one is easy - you just have to multiply an entire row by negative (doesn't matter which one) - so that the y's will be + and -
Since they're both 9 and they're subracting NOW - you can eliminate the y value. Now add/subtract the x's. So it'd be -2 or 2 depending on how you eliminated y. Then add the number outside of the = sign. Now just solve for x. After that plug in whatever you got for x into both of the rows. Then find the y value.
Hopefully this wasn't confusing -- reply if it is and I will try to simplify. I can give you contact if you need help with the rest
Good luck!</span>
