So I think you should set up an equation like this: 14.95x+16.88y=131.18 , x+y=8
so x=8-y, plug this into the original equation:
14.95(8-y)+16.88y=131.18
Evaluate: 119.60-14.95y+16.88y=131.18
Combine like terms: 119.60+1.93y=131.18
Subtract 119.60 from both sides. You get: 1.93y=11.58
Divide both sides by 1.93. You get y=6
Plug into second equation: x+y=8 ---> x+6=8 and solve for x. x=2
Christine bought 2 video games and 6 CDs. 14.95(2)+16.88(6)=131.18
Answer: 27434
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Total number of vials = 56
Number of vials that do not have hairline cracks = 13
Then, Number of vials that have hairline cracks =56-13=43
Since , order of selection is not mattering here , so we combinations to find the number of ways.
The number of combinations of m thing r things at a time is given by :-

Now, the number of ways to select at least one out of 3 vials have a hairline crack will be :-

Hence, the required number of ways =27434
Here's an explanation! :)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
hello,
first of all we will study the quadratic expressions
we can write that, (the different answers provide good clues :-) )

and

so first of all as we cannot divide by 0 we need to take x different from 7, -12 and -30 and then we can write

hope this helps
