Answer:

a. it has no solution

b. you can only substitute by making either the 'x' or 'y' the subject of either of the two equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 9y = -13.............. eqn 1

x - 3y = -7................... eqn 2

from eqn 2

x - 3y = -7, substitute by making 'x' the subject

x = -7 + 3y.................. eqn 3

put eqn 3 into eqn 1

3x - 9y = -13

3( -7 + 3y) - 9y = -13

-21 + 9y - 9y = -13

9y - 9y = -13 + 21

0 = 8, which is not possible.

Express 25km/h into m/s?

Helen [10]

Answer:

3600(seconds) can also be expressed as 1(kilometer/hour) = 5/18 (meters/second), which is its simplified form. To convert km/h to m/s, directly multiply the given value of speed by the fraction 5/18.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think that explanation is obvious

A weighted coin has a 0.599 probability of landing on heads. What is the probability that it takes 5 flips for the first head to

natka813 [3]

Answer:

0.411^5 times 0.599

Step-by-step explanation:

0.599 chance of landing on heads.

0.411 chance of not landing on heads.

0.411 times 0.411 times 0.411 times 0.411 times 0.411 (for the 5 flips that do not land on heads) times 0.599 (for the time that it does land on heads).
