Answer:

x = 1 and y = −2

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite equations:

x + 2y = −3

3x − 2y = 7

Step 1: Solve x+2y=−3 for x:

x + 2y = −3

x + 2y + −2y = −3 + −2y (Add -2y to both sides)

x = −2y − 3

Step 2: Substitute −2y − 3 for x in 3x − 2y = 7:

3x − 2y = 7

3(−2y − 3) − 2y = 7

−8y − 9 = 7 (Simplify both sides of the equation)

−8y − 9 + 9 = 7 + 9 (Add 9 to both sides)

−8y = 16

−8y/−8 = 16/−8 (Divide both sides by -8)

y = −2

Step 3: Substitute −2 for y in x = −2y − 3:

x = −2y − 3

x = (−2)(−2) − 3

x = 1 (Simplify both sides of the equation)

When solving these proportions we just remember when moving a number from one side to the other if it started in the numerator it ends up in the denominator and vice versa.


I'll do it in two steps here for teaching purposes; it's not too hard to go directly to the answer.


\dfrac{13}{7} = \dfrac{10}{v}


13 v = 7(10)


v= \dfrac{7 \cdot 10 }{13} = \dfrac{70}{13} \approx 5.4

An unfair coin with​ Pr[H] = 0.2 is flipped. If the flip results in a​ head, a marble is selected at random from a urn containin
satela [25.4K]
Normally when dealing with coins the probability of getting heads or tails is 0.5 each. However in this case since its an unfair coin, the probability of getting heads is 0.2. 
H - head 
T - tails
R - red marble
pr (H) = 0.2
urn
6 red and 4 blue
pr (T)   = 0.8
urn
3 red and 5 blue

when heads is obtained 
red - 6/10 -0.6
blue - 4/10 - 0.4
therefore when multiplying with 0.2 probability of getting heads
pr (R ∩ H) red - 0.6*0.2 = 0.12

when tails is obtained 
red - 3/8 - 0.375
blue - 5/8 - 0.625
when multiplying with 0.8 probability of getting tails
pr (R ∩ T) red - 0.375 * 0.8 = 0.3

using bayes rule the answer can be found out, 
the following equation is used;
pr (H | R) = pr (R ∩ H) / {pr (R ∩ H) + pr (R ∩ T)}
               = 0.12 / (0.12 + 0.3)
               = 0.12 / 0.42
               = 0.286
the final answer is 0.286
