Answer:

Your solution is (-10/7, 92/7)

Step-by-step explanation:

12x + y = -4

y = 2x + 16

To use substitution, we want to plug one variable's equation into the other equation.

We can see that y is already solved for us. Plug y into the first equation.

12x + y = -4

12x + (2x + 16) = -4

Combine like terms.

14x + 16 = -4

Subtract 16 from both sides.

14x = -20

Divide both sides by 14.

x = -20/14

x = -10/7

Now that we know x, we will plug it into one of the other equations.

y = 2x + 16

y = 2(-10/7) + 16

Multiply.

y = -20/7 + 16

Add.

y = -20/7 + 112/7

y = 92/7

Your solution is (-10/7, 92/7)

Hope this helps!

(06.01)The probability that an event will occur is 95%. Which of these best describes the likelihood of the event occurring? Lik
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

Likely

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of occurrence of a certain event Given as 95% has a high probability figure and hence such event is LIKELY to occur. We cannot class this probability percentage as certain because, an event which is certain to occur who'll have a probability percentage of 100% or a value of 1. Therefore, a probability percentage of 95% occurrence still has 5% Chace of not happening, hence it is only very likely to occur. Hence, the phrase which best describes the probability of an event with 95% probability happening is LIKELY.
