The answer is x=3 and y=8, here’s the work—

Y=3x-1
Y=2x+2
2x+2=3x-1
2=x-1
X=3

3(3)-1=y
9-1=y
8=y

Answer:

x=3

y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

the given equations are y=3x-1 --------(1)

and y=2x+2---------(2)

Using substitution method,

and solving y=3x-1

y+1=3x

or y+1/3 =x ------(3)

Putting the value of x= y + 1 / 3 in equation 2

y= 2x+2

or, y = 2 ( y + 1/3) +2

or, y= 2y + 2 / 3 +2

or, y = 2y + 2 + 6 // 3 ( Taking LCM)

Or, 3 y = 2y + 2 + 6 ( the denominator gets multiplied to y)

OR, 3 Y - 2Y =6 PLUS 2

or y = 8

therefore, y=8

now substituting the value of y=8 in equation (3)

y + 1 /3 = x

or ,,, 8 plus 1 by 3 =x

or,,,,, 9 by 3 =x

Therefore, x is 3

In order to answer this one, it's really really really really helpful if you know what the law of cosines says. In fact it's absolutely necessary. The law of cosines says if you know two sides of a triangle and the angle between them then you can use that information to find the length of the third side. In the picture you know the lengths of two sides and you know the angle between them. So you can use the law of cosines to find the length of the third sidethat. That's side AC.

The time to complete a standardized exam is approximately normal with a mean of 70 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minus.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the time to complete a standardized exam is approximately normal with a mean of 70 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes.

P(completing exam before 1 hour)

= P(less than an hour) = P(X<60)

=P(Z< $\frac{60-70}{10} =-1$ )
