Answer:
x = 1
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 1 = y ------- eqn (1)
2y = 6--------eqn (2)
from eqn(2)
2y = 6
y = 3
when you divide 6 by 2y
substitute y = 3 into eqn (1)
2x + 1 = y
2x + 1 = 3
2x = 3-1
2x = 2
therefore
x = 1
Answer:
Probability of missing two passes in a row is 0.08.
Step-by-step explanation:
Event E = A football player misses twice in a row.
P(E) = ?
Event X = Football player misses the first pass
P(X) = 0.4
Event Y = Football player misses just after he first miss
P(Y) = 0.2
Both the events are exclusive so the probability of occuring of these two events can be calculated by the formula:
P(E) = P(X).P(Y)
P(E) = 0.4*0.2
P(E) = 0.08
Answer: The person's speed is 8 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve we want to convert the 
and 
proportionally for the number of miles per hour. We know that multiplying a fraction by its reciprocal will equal 1. So let's do that for the value of the hour.
×
Since we multiplied that to the number of hours we must also do that for the number of miles.
×
Answer:
the number is 20
Step-by-step explanation:
let 'n' represent the number
2n + 9 = 49
2n = 40
n = 40/2 = 20
