Answer:

The answer is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

$x=-2,\,y=6$

Now, the expression

∴ $(x+3)(y-2)\\=>(-2+3)(6-2)\\=>(1)(4)\\4$

hope you have understood this...

Write a system of two equations in two variables to solve the problem. when fully extended, a ladder is 28 feet in length. if th

Alisiya [41]

Let the base of the ladder be x ft and the extension be y ft.

"when fully extended, a ladder is 28 feet in length."

means: x+y=28

"<span>the extension is 4 feet shorter than the base</span>"

means: y=x-4, that is x-y = 4, (taking y to the side of x, and -4 to the other side of x and y)

thus, we have the system of equations:

1) x+y= 28

2) x-y=4

adding the 2 equations, we have:

(x+y)+(x-y)=28+4

2x=32

x=32/2=16

x+y=28, so 16+y=28, thus y=12

Answer: Base: 16, Extension 12

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

0.1199 = 11.99% probability that at least 5 of them did not finish the marathon

Step-by-step explanation:

For each runner, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they finished the marathon, or they did not. The probability of a runner completing the marathon is independent of any other runner. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
