Answer:
x=-2, y=-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple substitution.
Since y is isolated in one of the equations already, you can plug it into the second equation.
x - 2(3x) = 10
x - 6x = 10
-5x = 10
x = -2
Sub. x = -2 into 3x = y:
3(-2) = y
y = -6
Tossing a coin is a binomial experiment.
Now lets say there are 'n' repeated trials to get heads. Each of the trials can result in either a head or a tail.
All of these trials are independent since the result of one trial does not affect the result of the next trial.
Now, for 'n' repeated trials the total number of successes is given by
where 'r' denotes the number of successful results.
In our case 
and 
,
Substituting the values we get,
Therefore, there are 1352078 ways to get heads if a person tosses a coin 23 times.
Answer: x=3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to make a series of equations from what you are given first. I am going to use the first letter of each of the names to represent the length of that persons wire.
1/2s=2/5d
3c=s
s+d+c=6 ft
Okay. Now you can combine the first two equations knowing what s equals:
1/2(3c)=2/5d
d=15c/4
Now you have d=15c/4 and s=3c, so you can replace d and s in the third equation.
3c+15c/4+c=6
Then solve for c and plug it into the equation 3c=s to find the length of sarah's wire.
