Plug in 4 for x and solve equation like so. c=2
Answer:
Hence the carnival game gives you better chance of winning.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the event of win be given by 1/10 in the game of rifle then the event of loose is given by 9/10
the
Odds in favor of a game are given by = P(Event)/ 1- P(Event)
Odds in favor of winning a rifle are given by = 1/10/ 1- 1/10
=1/10/9/10
=1/9
= 0.111
The probability of winning aa rifle game is 0.111
The probability of winning the carnival game is 0.15
Comparing the two probabilities 0.111:0.15
The probability of winning carnival game is greater than winning a rifle game
0.15>0.11
Hence the carnival game gives you better chance of winning.

<span>x+<span>(x+2)</span>+<span>(x+4)</span>=48</span>
3x+6=48
Minus 6 to both sides
<span>3x=42</span>
Divide 3 to both sides
<span>x=14</span>
Get the next two integers
<span>x,x+2,x+4 or 14,16,<span>18 = 48 is you Answer</span></span>
If the lines cross, there is a solution , which means that there is a y and x value which satisfies both equations.
since both the equations start with x+y they shoulddd have the same answer if they had crossed. we can tell straight away these lines do not cross because 6=/=4 6 doesnt equal 4. therefore no solution.
TIP: for the future, if they had crossed, you can use simultaneous equations to find x and y to see if they work in each equation and find a solution ( since they are straight lines there will only be 1 solution, unless they are literally the same line in which case then then they are ALWAYS on top of each other and always have the same values)
