Find the value of p for which x = -2, y = -1 is a solution of linear equation 5x + 2py = 2p.

1 answer:

8 0

I think p=4
How I solved it:
5(-2)+2p+2(-1)=2p
-10+2p+-2=2p So cross out last
-2p -2p 2p:)
= -10+2p+-2
+10 +10 Cross out the 10
= 2p=8
= divide both sides by 2p
= 2p/2= 8/2
= cross out the 2.
= which leaves
= p=4 we get 4 because we divide 8 to 2:)

I don’t know if I’m right but yea...

Fiction Cruiseline offers three ways to exercise on their cruise ships. 73 of the 86 passengers participated in at least one met

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The probability of exercise in cruise ships = 73

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the probability of rock climbing

Let B be the probability of ice skating

Let C be the probability of fitness center

P(A) = 36, P(B) = 44, P(C) = 27

P(A ∩ B) = 14, P(A ∩ C) = 11, P(B ∩ C) = 9

P(A ∩ B ∩ C)=0

By formula,

P(A ∪ B ∪ C) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C) − P(A ∩ B) − P(A ∩ C) − P(B ∩ C) + P(A ∩ B ∩ C).

Substituting the values in the above formula,

P(A ∪ B ∪ C) = 36 + 44 + 27 - 14 - 11 - 9 + 0

= 107 - 14 - 11 - 9

P(A ∪ B ∪ C) = 73

Can you find the sum [5.5+ (-2.3)] + (-5.5+2.3) without performing any additions?

Hunter-Best [27]

Yes
[5.5+(-2.3)] can be rearranged to be 5.5-2.3. It will be 3.2
(-5.5+2.3) can be rearranged to be 2.3-5.5. It will be -3.2
3.2-3.2=0
