X + 5y = 1 . . . . (1)
8x - 2y = 3 . . . .(2)
Solution 1.
From (1), x = 1 - 5y
substituting for x in (2), we have:
8(1 - 5y) - 2y = 3
8 - 40y - 2y = 3
8 - 42y = 3
42y = 5
y = 5/42
x = 1 - 5(5/42) = 1 - 25/42 = 17/42.
Solution 2.
Multiply (1) by 8, to get:
8x + 40y = 8 . . . . . (3)
(3) - (2) = 40y - (-2y) = 8 - 3
42y = 5
y = 5/42
substitute for y into (3), to get:
8x + 40(5/42) = 8
8x + 100/21 = 8
8x = 8 - 100/21 = 68/21
x = (68/21)/8 = 17/42
Answer:
r = 6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A.) 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Since DB =36, and AC is the same line, then AC = 36. The new equation is 36 = 3x - 3. Do inverse operation. Add 3 to both sides of the equation: 36+3=39 & -3+3=0. New equation is 39=3x. Finally divide. 39/3= 13.
Answer:
0.1938 = 19.38% probability that a package is delivered by UPS if it weighs 2 lbs or more
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
In this question:
Event A: It weighs 2 lbs or more
Event B: Delivered by UPS
15% of the packages that are delivered by UPS weighs 2 lbs or more.
This means that 
More than 2 lbs:
15% of 20%(UPS)
93% of 80%(Not delivered by UPS). So

a. What is the probability that a package is delivered by UPS if it weighs 2 lbs or more

0.1938 = 19.38% probability that a package is delivered by UPS if it weighs 2 lbs or more
