Answer:

x = -2

y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they already gave y as -3x +4, you will then have to substitute that amount into the formula

9x + 5y = 32

By doing that you get

9x +5(-3x+4) = 32

9x -15x +20 = 32

Then, you ill take 20 to the other side to subtract 32, which will get you

-6x = 12

Then, you will get x = -2

Then substitute that for the equation

y = -3x + 4

You will get

y = -3(-2) + 4,

You will get y as 10

SO then your final answer is x = -2, y = 10

The night watchman in a factory cannot guard both the safe in back and the cash register in front. The safe contains $6000, whil

Zolol [24]

Answer:

The guard should be positioned at the safe

Step-by-step explanation:

The night watchmen should be positioned to guard whichever place gives the highest expected value to the thief.

The expected value of robbing the safe is:

$EV_{s} = \$ 6000*0.2\\EV_{s} = \$ 1200$

The expected value of robbing the cash register is:

$EV_{r} = \$ 1000*0.8\\EV_{r} = \$ 800$

Therefore, the guard should be positioned at the safe since it yields a higher expected value to the thief in case he tries to rob it.
