Answer:

x=5 y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=8 1

x-y=2 2

x+y=8

y=8-x

substitute into 2

x-(8-x)=2

x-8+x=2

2x=10

x=5

substitute x into 1

5+y=8

y=3

5+3=8

5-3=2

5x + 9 = x - 23 find X​
Doss [256]

5x + 9 = x - 23

move x to the other side

sign changes from +x to -x

5x-x+9= x-x-23 ( combine like terms)

5x-x+9= -23

4x+9= -23

move -9 to the other side

4x+9-9= -23-9

4x= -23-9

4x= -32

divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself

4x/4= -32/4

answer:

x= -8

Find the experimental probability that only 2
Nitella [24]

The experimental probability that only 2 of 4 children in a family are boys is <u>50%</u>.

<h3>What is experimental probability?</h3>

Experimental probability refers to the chance of an expected success being achieved in a series of experiments conducted.

Experimental probability is the number of times that the expected success occurs as a fraction of the total number of times the experiment was conducted.

Like all probabilities, the experimental probability is based on the likelihood that what the experimenter expects is achieved.

Expected number of boys = 2

The number of children in the family = 4

Experimental probability = 50% (2/4 x 100)

Thus, we can conclude, based on the experimental probability, that <u>50%</u> (or 2) of the 4 children in the family are boys.
