Answer: x = -8 ; y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
1*x-2*y=4
1*x = 4 + 2*y
x = 4 + 2*y
Now you replace the value of x on the following equation:
-1*x+10*y=8
-1*(4 + 2*y) = 8
-4 - 2*y = 8
-2*y = 8+4
-2*y = 12
y = -12/2
y = -6
You replace the value of y in the previous equation:
x = 4 + 2*y
x = 4 + 2*(-6)
x = 4 - 12
x = -8
Answer:
<u><em></em></u>
- <u><em>Event A: 1/35</em></u>
- <u><em>Event B: 1/840</em></u>
<u><em></em></u>
Explanation:
<u>Event A</u>
For the event A, the order of the first 4 acts does not matter.
The number of different four acts taken from a set of seven acts, when the order does not matter, is calculated using the concept of combinations.
Thus, the number of ways that the first <em>four acts</em> can be scheduled is:
And<em> the number of ways that four acts is the singer, the juggler, the guitarist, and the violinist, in any order</em>, is 1: C(4,4).
Therefore the<em> probability of Event A</em> is:
Event B
Now the order matters. The difference between combinations and permutations is ordering. When the order matters you need to use permutations.
The number of ways in which <em>four acts </em>can be scheculed when the order matters is:
The number of ways <em>the comedian is first, the guitarist is second, the dancer is third, and the juggler is fourth</em> is 1: P(4,4)
Therefore, <em>the probability of Event B</em> is:
The value of X = 10. A is the answer. You will equate the denominator by multiplying by the numerator and eventually you will get you answer which is 10
