Answer:

x = 3

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-y) + (x+y) = 4 + 2

2x = 6

x = 3

sub x=3 into x+y=2

3+y=2

y=2-3

y=-1

Check by subbing x=3 and y=-1 into x-y=4

(3)-(-1) = 3+1 = 4

Answer:. This would be 0.81^20 for none of the 19=0.0148

Step-by-step explanation:With a tree diagram, there are two possibilities, one is ND from 1 D from 2, with probability (5/8)(2/5)=(1/4) and the other is (3/8)(3/5)=9/40 That would be 19/40 for the answer.

3. Poisson parameter lambda=5

for P(0), it is e^(-5)(5^0)/0! or e^(-5)=0.0067

for P(1), it is e^(-5)(5^1)/1! or 5e(-5)

The total probability is 6e^-5 or 0.0404

4. the mean is 1000 hours, so lambda is the reciprocal or 1/1000

the probability it will last <800 hours is 1-e^(-800*1/1000) or 1-e^(-.8)=0.5507

5. assume p=0.4 since it ca't be 4

sd is sqrt (np*(1-p))=sqrt (6*0.6=sqrt(3.6)=1.90

What the equations are

strojnjashka [21]

So, first lets define our variables:

let x = the number of dimes
let y = the number of nickels

so our first equation would be x+y = 16

Since dimes are 10 cents and nickels are 5 cents the next equation would be as follows:

.10x+.05y = 1.35

now change the first equation so y = -x+16
now substitute:

.10x+.05(-x+16) = 1.35
then multiply so you get .10x+-.05x+0.8=1.35

combine like terms and you get .05x+0.8 = 1.35
then subtract 0.8 from both sides and you get .05x = 0.55 then subtract
and you get x = 11 then substitute 11 for where x should be and you should get y = 5

So, you have 11 dimes and 5 nickels
