Answer:
<em>x </em>= -2
<em>y </em>= 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Pretty hard process, but let me explain:
First, solve for y.
Substitute -x - 2 for y in x - y = -2:
Then, simplify both sides of the equation.
x - y = -2
x - (-x - 2) = -2
After, add -2 to both sides of the equation.
2x + 2 = -2
2x + 2 + -2 = -2 + -2
Next, divided both sides by 2.
2x/2 = -4/2
After that, substitute -2 for x in y = -x - 2:
You must simplify both sides of the equation.
y = -x - 2
y = -(-2) - 2
y = 0
Sorry if this is long and confusing, but I hope this helps!!
First you had to remove parenthesis first.

Multiply by the numbers.

First, you have to set a system of equations to determine the number of fiction and of nonfiction books.Call f the number of fiction books and n the number of nonfiction books. Then 400 = f + n. And f = n + 40 => n = f - 40 => 400 = f + f - 40 => 400 - 40 = 2f => f = 360 / 2 = 180. Now to find the probability of picking two fiction books, take into account the the Audrey will pick from 180 fiction books out of 400, and Ryan will pick from 179 fiction books out of 399, so the probability will be<span> (180/ 400) * (179/399) = 0.20 (rounded to two decimals). Answer: 0.20</span>
