Answer:

x = 0, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use substitution method to substitute 2y into 2x + 2y = 4.

-x + 2y = 4

2y = 4 + x --- Equation 1

2x + 2y = 4 --- Equation 2

Substitute Equation 1 into Equation 2:

2x + 2y = 4

2x + 4 + x = 4

3x + 4 = 4

Isolate 3x.

3x = 4-4

= 0

Find x.

x = 0 ÷ 3

x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into Equation 1:

2y = 4 + x

2y = 4 + 0

= 4

Find y.

y = 4 ÷ 2

y = 2

Over [174]

Answer:

a) C. No, a carton can have a puncture and a smashed corner.

b) The probability that a carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is P(X ∪ Y) = 0.104.

Step-by-step explanation:

To be mutually exclusive, the probability of the two events happening at the same time should be 0. But the probability that a carton has a puncture and has a smashed corner is 0.004 and not 0.

Then, we can conclude the events "selecting a carton with a puncture" and "selecting a carton with a smashed corner" are not mutually exclusive.

The answer is "C. No, a carton can have a puncture and a smashed corner."

We can calculate the probability that the carton has a puncture <em>or </em>has a smashed comer simply by adding the probability of each event:

$P(X\cup Y)=P(X)+P(Y)=0.1+0.04=0.104$

P(X ∪ Y): probability that a carton has a puncture or a smashed corner.

Jake is comparing the prices of two mattress cleaning companies. Company A charges $30 per mattress and an additional $13 as ser

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

A) A = 30m + 13 B = 28m + 15

B) Company B would charge $6 less for 4 mattresses

C) Company B would charge $12 less for 7 mattresses

Step-by-step explanation:

A. : Write equations to represent Company A's and Company B's total mattress cleaning charges for a certain number of mattresses. Define the variable used in the equations.

Let's define the variable m to represent the number of mattresses to be cleaned.

For company A, we have a cost per mattress of $30 plus a fixed service fee of $13. So the equation will be:

A = 30m + 13

While company B charges $28 per mattress, with a fixed service fee of $15:

B = 28m + 15

That way, we have a good representation of both price structures, using a meaningful variable.

B. Which company would charge less for cleaning 4 mattresses? Justify your answer.

We just have to calculate the cost of cleaning 4 mattresses at both companies:

A = 30m + 13 = 30 (4) + 13 = 120 + 13 = $133

B = 28m + 15 = 28 (4) + 15 = 112 + 15 = $127

Company B would charge $6 less for 4 mattresses

C. How much money is saved by using the services of Company B instead of Company A to clean 7 mattresses?

Again, all we have to do is calculate the cost to clean 7 mattresses at both companies:

A = 30m + 13 = 30 (7) + 13 = 210 + 13 = $223

B = 28m + 15 = 28 (7) + 15 = 196 + 15 = $211

Company B would charge $12 less for 7 mattresses
