Answer:

x= 43, y=215

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one number be x,

Let the other number be y.

x= 5y

x - y= 172

Putting value of x in equation 2.

5y - y = 172

4y = 172

y= 172/4

y= 43

Putting value of y in eq. 1

x= 5(43)

x=215.

The numbers 1 through 15 are written on cards. One card is chosen at random. Event A is choosing a
lana [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

the probability is always the number of desired cases over the number of all possible cases.

in our situation we have 15 cards.

that is the total possible cases when a random card is chosen.

how many desired cases do we have ?

a number NOT a multiple of 5.

how many are there ?

it is easier to say how many numbers there are being a multiple of 5 : 5, 10, 15

so, 3 numbers out of the 15 are multiple of 5.

that means

15 - 3 = 12 numbers of the 15 are NOT multiples of 5.

so, the probability to draw a card that is not a multiple of 5 is

12/15 = 4/5 = 0.8

the information about event B and even numbers is irrelevant for the question.
