Answer:

P(green or purple​) = 0.576

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

32 + 47 + 21 + 25 = 125 blocks.

Of those, 47 + 25 = 72 are green of purple

​P(green or purple​) = 72/125 = 0.576

1)A System of equations is shown below . What is the solution to the system of equations? 5x+2y=-15 2x-2y=-6
meriva

Answer:

x= -3 and y= 0

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2y=-15

<u>2x-2y=-6     </u>

<u>7x        =-21</u>

x= -3

Putting value of x in equation 1  

5(-3) +2y=-15

-15+2y= -15

2y= 0

y= 0

This can be solved with the help of matrices

In matrix form the above equations can be written in the form

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&2\\2&-2\/\end{array}\right]  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-15\\-6\\\end{array}\right]

Let

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}5&2\\2&-2\/\end{array}\right] = A  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  = X  and  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-15\\-6\\\end{array}\right]= B

Then AX= B

or X= A⁻¹ B

where  A⁻¹= adj A/ ║A║   where mod A≠ 0

adj A=  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&-2\\-2&5\/\end{array}\right]

║A║= ( 5*-2- 2*2)= -10-4= -14≠0

X= A⁻¹ B

 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]    =- 1/14  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2&-2\\-2&5\/\end{array}\right]   \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-15\\-6\\\end{array}\right]

 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]    =- 1/14     \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-2*-15&+ -2*-6\\-2*-15&+ 5*-6\\\end{array}\right]

 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  =- 1/14 \left[\begin{array}{ccc} 30&+12\\30&+-30\\\end{array}\right]

 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  =- 1/14 \left[\begin{array}{ccc}42\\0\\\end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-42/14\\0/-14\\\end{array}\right]

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\\end{array}\right]  = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}-3\\0\\\end{array}\right]

From here x= -3 and y= 0

Solution Set = [(-3,0)]

mrs. johnson gave a sum of money to her son and daughter in the ratio 5:6. Her daughter received $2400. how muh did Mrs. Johnson
Tresset [83]
To find the total amount Mrs. Johnson gave away, you need to know how much she gave the son.  Because the ratio of the money given is 5:6, the amount of money he received has to be 5/6 of the money the daughter received.

So, the son received 5/6 of 2400.
To find this, multiply 5/6 x 2400 to get 2000.

The daughter received 2400 and the son received 2000, so the total amount Mrs. Johnson gave away is 4400 dollars.

Which of the following is the correct equation for the distance formula for the points (x1, y1) and (x2,y2)?
svp [43]

Answer:

  A. D=sqrt( (x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points is the root of the sum of the squares of the differences in their corresponding coordinates. The equation of choice A is the usual formulation.

__

<em>Comment on answer choices</em>

Because the square of a number is the same as the square of its opposite, the formula in choice D is also correct.
