This is quiet simple. i like to use a method my math teacher calls "plug and chug". we know that y= 4x +2
some people call this the substitution method but it has the same concept. now that we know what y equals, we plug it into teh equation:
(4x+2) -x=17
then we "chug it":
4x+2-x=17
then we have to isolate x. add the x's:
5x+2=17
in order to isolate x subtract 2 from both sides:
5x=15
now to isolate again divide both sides with 5:
x=3
so x is 3. bow we plug that into what y is;
y=4 (3) +2
y=14
so:
x=3
y=14
(to double check plug and chug into the first question . if x and y are correct, you will get 17)
Answer:
$19,100
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected profit would be the probability of profit multiplied by the profit and the sum of probability of loss multiiplied by the loss.
So, we can say:
E(p) = P(p)*P + P(L)*L
Where
E(p) is expected profit
P(p) is probabilty of profit (0.7)
P is the profit (35,000)
P(L) is probability of loss (0.3)
L is the loss (-18,000)
Substituting these values, we get:
E(p) = P(p)*P + P(L)*L
E(p) = (0.7)(35,000) + (0.3)(-18,000)
E(p) = 19,100
The expected profit is $19,100
Answer:
7 cuts
Step-by-step explanation:
A net of a cube looks like the image below.
It has 5 edges connected to each other; two to the side, three in the middle.
That means that 12 - 5 = 7 cuts have to be made.
