Answer:

m = 2, n = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

2m + 3n = - 5 → (1)

5m + 3n = 1 → (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate n

2m - 5m = - 5 - 1

- 3m = - 6 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

m = 2

Substitute m = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for n

Substituting into (1)

2(2) + 3n = - 5

4 + 3n = - 5 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

3n = - 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )

n = - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

2m + 3n = -5

5m + 3n = 1

(Multiply each equation by a suitable number so that the two equations have the same leading coefficient)

6m + 9n = -15

15m + 9n = 3

(Subtract the second equation from the first)

15m- 6m = -15-3

-9m= -18

-9m/-9= -18/-9

m= 2

(Solve this new equation for m)

5(2) +3n = 1

10+3n=1

3n=1-10

3n=-9

3n/3 = -9/3

n= -3

(Substitute m = 2 into either Equation 1 or Equation 2 above and solve for n )

Suppose we are interested in bidding on a piece of land and we know one other bidder is interested. The seller announced that th
Alik [6]

Answer:

P(X

And for this case we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b

And using this formula we have this:

P(X

Then we can conclude that the probability that your bid will be accepted would be 0.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest "the bid offered" and we know that the distribution for this random variable is given by:

X \sim Unif( a= 10100, b =14700)

If your offer is accepted is because your bid is higher than the others. And we want to find the following probability:

P(X

And for this case we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:

P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b

And using this formula we have this:

P(X

Then we can conclude that the probability that your bid will be accepted would be 0.41

What is the instantaneous rate of change of f(x)=xe^x-(x 2)e^(x-1) at x=0 ?
lozanna [386]
You have to derive for a multiplication in both terms:
=e^x+xe^x-(e^x-1 + (x-2)e^x-1) now apply distributive property in the last term:
=e^x+xe^x+e^x-1-xe^x-1   now replace each x by 0 (x=0)
=1 + 0 + e^-1 + 0 = 1+ e^-1 = 1.3679
