Well done!
We need the following to be true
a+2b = -a
a+4 = 2a - 3b
Let's look at the first equation.
a + 2b = -a
Subtract both sides by a
2b = -2a
b = -a
Substitute b= -a into the second equation
a+4 = 2a + 3a
a + 4 = 5a
4a = 4
a = 1
Just take the negative of that and you get the value of b.
b = -1
Your solution is a=1 and b = -1.
Have an awesome day! :)
The price of one bag of popcorn is $3.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
x represent the cost of a bag of popcorn
y represent the cost of a drink.
According to given statement;
4x+12y=30 Eqn 1
x+6y=11.25 Eqn 2
Multplying Eqn 2 by 2

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 1

Dividing both sides by 2

4x+12y=30 and x+6y=11.25 can be used to find the price of one bag of popcorn and the price of one drink.
The price of one bag of popcorn is $3.75

Hi there,
This is the original inequality equation:

So, we first need to find the critical points of equality, and we can do that by switching the less than sign to an equal sign.

Now, we multiply both sides by x + 1:

Then, we multiply both sides by x - 1:

Next, we subtract x² from both sides:

After that, we solve for x. We do this by adding -x to both sides and dividing by 2. Doing so gives us x = 0, which is our first critical point. We need to find a few more critical points by testing x = -1 and x = 1. Here is how we do that:
<span>x = <span>−1 </span></span>(Makes left denominator equal to 0)<span>x = 1 </span>(Makes right denominator equal to 0)Check intervals in between critical points. (Test values in the intervals to see if they work.)<span>x <<span>−1 </span></span>(Doesn't work in original inequality)<span><span><span>−1 </span>< x </span><0 </span>(Works in original inequality)<span><span>0 < x </span>< 1 </span>(Doesn't work in original inequality)<span>x > 1 </span><span>(Works in original inequality)
Therefore, the answer to your query is
-1 < x < 0 or x > 1. Hope this helps and have a phenomenal day!</span>
Answer:
1/4, 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's find how many marbles there are in total
6+10+8=24 marbles
Now we find the probability of drawing a blue marble
6/24=1/4 (There are 6 blue marbles)
The compliment is 3/4
