A card is drawn at random from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. what is the probability of drawing a face card or a 6?

Wild cats scored a total of 123 points. 67 points were scored in the first half. How many were scored in the second half?

Dima020 [189]

123-67=56 points. So, subtract and you get 56 points in the second half

One watering system needs about three times as long to complete a job as another warning system when both systems operate at the

algol13

Answer:

One watering system requires 36 minutes to complete the job alone while another watering system requires 12 minutes to complete the job alone.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Both the system can complete the job = 9 minutes

We need find the time required by each system to do the job.

Solution:

Let the time required by another watering system to complete the job be 'x' mins.

Now given:

One watering system needs about three times as long to complete a job as another watering system.

Time required by one watering system = $3x$

Rate to complete the job by another watering system = $\frac{1}{x}\ job/min$

Rate to complete the job by One watering system = $\frac{1}{3x}\ job/min$

Rate at which both can complete the job = $\frac{1}{9}\ job/min$

So we can say that;

Rate at which both can complete the job is equal to sum of Rate to complete the job by another watering system and Rate to complete the job by One watering system.

framing in equation form we get;

$\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{3x}=\frac19$

Now taking LCM to make the denominator common we get;

$\frac{1\times3}{x\times 3}+\frac{1\times1}{3x\times1}=\frac19\\\\\frac{3}{3x}+\frac{1}{3x}=\frac19\\\\\frac{3+1}{3x}=\frac{1}{9}\\\\\frac{4}{3x}=\frac{1}{9}$

By Cross multiplication we get;

$4\times9 =3x\\\\3x =36$

Dividing both side by 3 we get;

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{36}{3}\\\\x=12\ min$

Time required by One watering system = $3x =3\times 12 =36\ min$

Hence One watering system requires 36 minutes to complete the job alone while another watering system requires 12 minutes to complete the job alone.

100 Points PLEASE ANSWER ASP! Will Give BRAINLIST!

Let's work to solve this system of equations:

y = 2x ~~~~~~~~\gray{\text{Equation 1}}y=2x Equation 1

x + y = 24 ~~~~~~~~\gray{\text{Equation 2}}x+y=24 Equation 2

The tricky thing is that there are two variables, xx and yy. If only we could get rid of one of the variables...

Here's an idea! Equation 11 tells us that \goldD{2x}2x and \goldD yy are equal. So let's plug in \goldD{2x}2x for \goldD yy in Equation 22 to get rid of the yy variable in that equation:

\begin{aligned} x + \goldD y &= 24 &\gray{\text{Equation 2}} \\\\ x + \goldD{2x} &= 24 &\gray{\text{Substitute 2x for y}}\end{aligned}

x+y

x+2x

=24

Equation 2

Substitute 2x for y

Brilliant! Now we have an equation with just the xx variable that we know how to solve:

x+2x3x 3x3x=24=24=243=8Divide each side by 3

Nice! So we know that xx equals 88. But remember that we are looking for an ordered pair. We need a yy value as well. Let's use the first equation to find yy when xx equals 88:

\begin{aligned} y &= 2\blueD x &\gray{\text{Equation 1}} \\\\ y &= 2(\blueD8) &\gray{\text{Substitute 8 for x}}\\\\ \greenD y &\greenD= \greenD{16}\end{aligned}

y

=2x

=2(8)

=16

Equation 1

Substitute 8 for x

Sweet! So the solution to the system of equations is (\blueD8, \greenD{16})(8,16). It's always a good idea to check the solution back in the original equations just to be sure.

Let's check the first equation:

\begin{aligned} y &= 2x \\\\ \greenD{16} &\stackrel?= 2(\blueD{8}) &\gray{\text{Plug in x = 8 and y = 16}}\\\\ 16 &= 16 &\gray{\text{Yes!}}\end{aligned}

y

16

=2x

=

?

2(8)

=16

Plug in x = 8 and y = 16

Yes!

Let's check the second equation:

\begin{aligned} x +y &= 24 \\\\ \blueD{8} + \greenD{16} &\stackrel?= 24 &\gray{\text{Plug in x = 8 and y = 16}}\\\\ 24 &= 24 &\gray{\text{Yes!}}\end{aligned}

x+y

8+16

24

=24

=

?

24

=24

Plug in x = 8 and y = 16

Yes!

Great! (\blueD8, \greenD{16})(8,16) is indeed a solution. We must not have made any mistakes.

Your turn to solve a system of equations using substitution.

Use substitution to solve the following system of equations.

4x + y = 284x+y=28

y = 3xy=3x
