Answer:

Assuming order does not matter, the probability of selecting all midsize cars is 0.000277373, or \frac{4}{14421}.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must find the n(Total arrangements of selections)=(8+15)C6

n(Total arrangements of selections)=23C6

n(Total arrangements of selections)=100,947

Second, we must find the n(Arrangements where all are midsize cars)=8C6

n(Arrangements where all are midsize cars)=28

To find the probability of selecting all midsize cars, we divide the n(Arrangements where all are midsize cars) by the n(Total arrangements of selections):

P(All midsize cars)= \frac{28}{100,947}

P(All midsize cars)= \frac{4}{14421}=0.000277373.

Eliminate the parameter. <br> x = t2 + 3, y = t2 - 2
abruzzese [7]

Answer: y = x - 5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

"Eliminate the parameter" means we want to eliminate the <em>extra </em>variable and rewrite it ias one equation that only contains x, y, <em>and possibly a constant.</em>

<em />

The extra variable in the equations is "t".  Manipulate one of the equations to solve for t². Then substitute t² = _____ it into the other equation.

x = t² + 3         →          x - 3 = t²

y = t² - 2

y = (x - 3) - 2

y = x - 5

Substitution method...need help.. started but cant finish
trapecia [35]

Solve either equation for either variable. Since the second one has y on its own, the easiest choice is to solve that for y.

-5x + y = 13   ⇒   y = 5x + 13

Now substitute this into the other equation to eliminate y and rewrite it entirely in terms of x :

-3x + 3y = 3   ⇒   -3x + 3 (5x + 13) = 3

Simplify and solve for x :

-3x + 15x + 39 = 3

12x = -36

x = -3

Substitute this into either original equation to solve for y. Plugging x = -3 into the first equation would give

-3 (-3) + 3y = 3

9 + 3y = 3

3y = -6

y = -2

So the solution to the system of equations is (x, y) = (-3, -2).
