Hope this helps again! :)
Step-by-step explanation:
The constant of proportionality is the ratio of the cost to the number of pounds of walnuts. In other words, it is the price of one pound of walnuts.
$10.92 / 4 lb = $2.73 / lb
L-s=16
4s-5=l
4s-l=5
3s=21
s=7
l-7=16
l=16+7
l=23
The smaller number is 7 and the greater number is 23
Answer:
1) It is geometric
a) In each trial you can obtain 11 or obtain something else (and fail)
b) Throw 2 dices and watch if the result is 11 or not
c) The probability of success is 1/18
2) It is not geometric, but binomal.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) This is effectively geometric. When you see the sum of 2 dices, you can separate the result in two different outcomes: when the sum is 11 and when the sum is different from 11.
A trial is constituted bu throwing 2 dices and watching if the sum of the dices is 11 or not.
In order to get 11 you need one 5 in one dice and 1 six in another. As a consecuence, you have 2 favourable outcomes (a 5 in the first dice and a 6 in the second one or the other way around). The total amount of outcomes is 6² = 36, and all of them have equal probability. This means that the probability of success is 2/36 = 1/18.
2) This is not geometric distribution. The geometric distribution meassures how many tries do you need for one success. The amount of success in 10 trias follows a binomial distribution.
-4x + 6y = 12
x + 2y = -10
First solve for x in the second equation
x + 2y = -10
x = -10 - 2y
Now we have a value for x so we can substitute it into the other equation
-4 (-10 - 2y) + 6y = 12
Now solve for y
40 + 8y + 6y = 12
40 + 14y = 12
14y = -28
y = -2
Now we have a value for y that we can plug into one of the original equations so we can solve for x
x + 2y = -10
x + 2(-2) = -10
x - 4 = -10
x = -6
Your solution set is
(-6, -2)
