Multiply first example by 3 and subtract by second example, you will get the following:
3*(5x + 2y) = 3*22 => 3*5x + 3*2y = 66 => 15x + 6y = 66
now subtraction:
(15x + 6y) - (-2x + 6y) = 66 - 3
15x + 6y + 2x - 6y = 63
15x + 2x + 6y - 6y = 63
17x = 63
x = 63/17 ≈ 3.705..... and as it says to round to the nearest tenth our answer would be: x = 3.7
Answer:
so 1/3 must be subtracted from the sum of 1/4 and 1/6 to have an average of 1/12 of all the two fractions.
Step-by-step explanation:
let the fraction be x
(1/4 + 1/6)-x = 1/12
or, 10/24 - x = 1/12
or, 5/12-1/12 = x
so, x = 4/12 = 1/3
Answer:
yes :- P ( Ei ∩ Ej ) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
These are mutually exclusive events
that is, a customer can only go to a gas station to fill his car with gas par time
P(E1) = 1/4
P(E2) = 1/4
P(E3) = 1/4
P(E4) = 1/4
summation of the four probabilities give 1

Let Peters age be x
Phil's age is 1/5x+7---------------------------(i)
Phil's age can also be calculated as
4(1/5x+7)=2x-2--------------------------------(ii)
So,
4/5x+28=2x-2
28+2=2x-4/5x
30=10/5x-4/5x
30=6/5x
x=30*

x=25
