x+3y=3\\3y=-x+3\\\\2x-3y=-12\\-3y=-2x-12\\3y=2x+12\\\\-x+3=2x+12=3y\\-9=3x\\-3=x\\\\(-3)+3y=3\\3y=6\\y=2

x = -3
y = 2

Get x on one side then you can use substitution
So, change x+3y=3 to x= -3y+3
Then plug in x to other equation to find y
2(-3y +3)-3y=-12
-6y + 6 -3y = -12
-9y = -18
Divide both sides by negative nine to find y
y = 2
Then plug in to original equation to find x
x + 3(2) = 3
x + 6 = 3
x = -3
So, y = 2 and x = -3

IgorLugansk [536]
If 25% of the people <em>are</em> vaccinated, then 75% of the people are <em>not</em> vaccinated.  Of those not vaccinated, each has a 50% chance of contracting the disease.  The probability that someone is both not vaccinated and contracts the disease is (0.75)(0.5)=0.375.
The probability that someone is vaccinated and contracts the disease is (0.25)(0.1)=0.025 (it is multiplied by 0.1 because if the vaccine is 90% effective, then there is a 10% chance someone that is vaccinated can contract the disease.
Add these together for the total:  0.375+0.025=0.4
There is a 40% chance that someone chosen at random will contract the disease.

Lynna [10]

Answer: It would be I, the 4th one.

Step-by-step explanation:The 2 squares on the outside would fold up, that would leave the top and the 2 opposite sides left, so you would fold the other 3 squares on the bottom over the top, till it would cover all the other exposed sides.

Hopefully this makes sense!
