The answer is
y = (-x) - 1
Answer:
7 are boys
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a system of equations where g is for girls and b is for boys.
b+g=26
g=3b-2
Substitute "3b-2" in for "g" in the first equation.
b+(3b-2)=26
Rewrite without the parentheses because it's addition and not multiplication.
b+3b-2=26
Combine like terms.
4b-2=26
Add 2 to both sides.
4b=28
Divide by the coefficient of the variable to get it alone.
b=7
P(picking one defective) = 3/10
P(picking a 2nd defective) = 2/9
P(1 and 2 defective) = 3/10 x 2/9 = 6/90 = 0.066
Second method using combination:
³C₂ / ¹⁰C₂ = 1/15 = 0.066
X= 1, x = 5
-3|x - 3| = -6
———— —– divide both sides by -3
-3 -3 and remove the bars
x - 3 = 2
+3 +3
—————
x = 5⭐️
-3|1-3|➡️-3|-2|= -6
