The solution of the given system of equation is x = -3 and y = 4 respectively.
<h3>What is a system of linear equations?</h3>
A system of linear equations can be defined as a number of equations needed to solve the equations. For n number of variables n number of equations are required.
The given system of equations is as,
y = 4x + 16 (1)
y = −2x − 2 (2)
In order to solve them, substitute equation (2) into (1) as follows,
4x + 16 = −2x − 2
=> 4x + 2x = -2 - 16
=> 6x = -18
=> x = -3
Then, y = -2 × -3 - 2 = 4
Hence, the solution of the given system of equation is x = -3 and y = 4.

Answer:
The probability of a customer buying carrots is 0.10.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, given:
P (Customer buying apples) = 12%
⇒ P(A) = 12 \100 = 0.12
P(Customer Buying apples AND Carrots) = 5%
⇒ P(A ∩ C ) = 5 /100 = 0.05
P(Customer buying apples OR carrots ) = 17%
⇒ P(A∪ C) = 17/100 = 0.17
Now, we know that:
<h3>
P(X ∪ Y) = P(X) + P(Y) - P(X ∩ Y ) </h3><h3>
</h3>
Now, here substituting the values, we get:
P(A∪ C) = P(A) + P(C) - P(A ∩ C )
⇒ 0. 17 = 0.12 + P(C) - 0.05
or, 0.17 - 0.07 = P(C)
or, P(C) = 0.10
or, P(Customer Buying Carrots) = 0.10
Hence, the probability of a customer buying carrots is 0.10.
