Answer:

\boxed{x = 4~~and~~y = -2}

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 5y = 2 (times 5) 15x + 25y = 10

5x + 8y = 4 (times 3) 15x + 24y = 12

.

15x + 25y = 10

<u>15x + 24y = 12 </u>  <u>  </u>

y = -2

.

Substitute the value of y to one of equations

3x + 5y = 2

3x + 5(-2) = 2

3x - 10 = 2

3x = 2 + 10

3x = 12

x = \frac{12}{3}

x = 4

The probabilities of knocking down zero, one, and two pins are 0.175, 0.189, and 0.264, respectively.  The total probability of knocking down at most two is thus 0.175+0.189+0.264=0.628, or 62.8%.

In 2009, a school population was 1,700. By 2017 the population had grown to 2,500. Assume the population is changing linearly. W
qaws [65]

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

The population is changing linearly. This means that the population is increasing by a particular value n every year.

From 2009 to 2017, there are 8 increases and so, the population increases by 8n.

The population increased from 1700 to 2500. Therefore, the population increase is:

2500 - 1700 = 800

This implies that:

8n = 800

=> n = 800/8 = 100

The average population growth per year is 100.
